We weren’t originally planning to go shopping for anything meaningful on Boxing day, but yesterday our bread maker bought the farm. For the last couple of loaves that we’ve made, we found that the top was sinking, after we took it out of the pan. The final loaf had virtually the entire thing collapse in upon itself. It was like there was a mini black hole within the loaf. While this is entirely possible, it is not very likely as black holes usually exist towards the centre of galaxies, rather than the outer arm, where we reside.Upon closer examination, I found that the heating coil, wasn’t very hot to the touch. I know this, because I often put my bare finger onto the heating coils of recently used bread machines. Anyway, as Kristie and I use our bread maker virtually once a week, we thought that boxing day would be a good day to purchase one. Along the way, we also bought a few clothing items for ourselves. Kristie bought a pair of capris pants, a little sports jacket number, and a pair of water proof pants. I purchased a new short sleeved, button up shirt, and a new silicone spatula.
The day was wonderfully warm, and we took the waterfront home. Along the way, we saw the silhouette of a sting-ray, or some kind of ray, gliding through the water. It was about four feet across, and just drifted effortlessly through the water; It was really cool.
To all my Canadian Friends and Family, have a very Merry Christmas!
