Shrove Tuesday's Gone

Happy Pancake Day!

Invited the crew (Jaime, Mike & Brad) over to my place for chocolate chip pancakes and bacon for supper. Went over pretty well, considering it was my first real solo attempt at the pancake dinner scene. Glad I picked up a coffee table on Sunday so we could all watch Super Troopers while we ate!

It was cool to finally have them pay a visit to casa-del-reid, as I've been to their places quite a bit already. They've also treated me to a few meals as well, so I jumped at the chance to hit them back. Plus, apparently pancakes on shrove Tuesday isn't as big of a tradition up here on the mainland as it is back home.... so it was cool because I felt like I was bringing a little piece of the rock to Hamilton. And get this... they had never even heard of putting money in the pancakes. Can you believe that? Their childhoods must have sucked.

And kudos to Splash (and Veena) for finally updating his blog. I encourage you all to follow their lead and make an update to your blog right now as well.

Also of note is the new VW commercial for the GTI. The guy says "Oh Snap". I just about fell off my chair. Awesome. I knew I bought my car from the right people :) . As a side note, I've been saying "oh Snap!" in the office as much as possible since I started work. I think it's starting to catch on, as some co-workers have begun using it.

And finally, the question is..... what are YOU going to give up for Lent?
I think I'm going to aim for something simple.... like giving up blue M&M's or boloney sandwiches.

Peace.
