The Sun is Away today.


It's Vancouver and in here we don't see the sun much, everything is mouldy.
I live in an apartment on the East side of the city in a quasi industrial area near Main and Broadway.
The building I live in is bright and fun and across from my window is the Native Education Centre. From my balcony I take the best sunset pictures in the city. There is a lot of dogs in my building ( THE ARTISTE) living a good dogs life. Today is Friday and my building will come alive after 10 pm, I don't mind noise or people going for it on weekends, but during the week it's conflicting if I have to wake up early....All good on the home front today and having just said that it' s time to clean my kitchen and make apple cake with blueberries for my wife, my turn in the kitchen but I'm nether barefooted or pregnant . The cake is in the oven and the home is now looking like a home and not just a tent.
My next door cat come to visit and let me take a picture of him being a cat..Done. Oscar the cat is depressed he keeps on meowing for no reason I pet him and give him a treat, but the poor guy is missing something more than just a cat cookie, maybe a girlfriend would help
.
The cake is starting to smell and my apartment has that feel of riches that only baked goods can provide .
I'm happy and ready for some cake , coffee and a movie. The cake is out and here is a picture of it kinda fuzzy, but the taste is unforgettable...I think Nat King Cole did that one in style or maybe it's the only unforgettable tune I remember and I'm not going to sing it for you guys unless you bring wine.
Now the movie and I will let you guys know later what I watched and what I thought of it.




And There is Nothing like a bone.






Got up today late as usual and no breakfast, i jumped into the shower like a comet, but now that I think of it comets don't do that. My walk took me about 3k up the road , the day was glorious for Vancouver and that means we had sun.
The bus coming home was jammed with an array of people that would satisfy the UN, it smelled of pepperoni.
I got out at main and Broadway and looked for a muffin in the nearest coffee shop, but those things in the counter were older than the café, hmm and I felt my appetite evaporate. It's a dogs life , but the muffins aren't even good enough for doggy.
It's late and I want to stay up forever or at least for another hour, but my head is banging on the keyboard and my stomach wants something to stop the growling, I go to the kitchen looking for some excitement...Hmm hot chocolate with marshmallows, lucky me.
