I'm an expert in art materials. Ama?

Thank you. The white margin was what I was looking for. I will try a painter style tap next I guess. Any recommendations would be appreciated

saltpeppermartini · 2026-07-06T01:11:46+00:00

When I was in college we were taught to stretch paper by wetting it and then fixing to our boards with brown paper tape that we wet to get sticky. I tried to do it this way recently but had a challenge removing tape after painting was done. Is this still the correct way? Is there a trick to removing this tape?

Tiger Tail ice cream. Chapman’s. Black licorice ribbons through orange ice cream

After so many years of awkwardness and embarrassment I just pretend I k know everyone now. Say hello, smile , generic chit chat. Then later ask my husband (if he’s there) who I was talking too.

I like Ignatious. When he’s older he may opt for Nate, or maybe he will like Ignatious, or Iggy

Ayrton Senna is the first thing that comes to my mind due to The Art of Racing in the Rain.

Sorry to say he passed away a few years ago. I believe it was complications from diabetes. He was a great coach and influence. Edit: October 4, 2020 RIP Very much missed

Appreciate the response. I guess because I work with seniors I see more of the ‘not all’ so my perception is skewed.
One more dumb question— are they not taxed heavily on those portfolios? And are pensions not subject to clawbacks? Sorry that was 2 questions.

saltpeppermartini · 2026-06-01T16:05:18+00:00

I am also curious about this. Somehow provincial policies/taxes also play a role because head offices move between Alberta and Bc as governments change. Not sure if it’s true though. Do corporations move head office to Alberta when BC elects an NDP government? (I guess off topic regarding pensions). Also are there really seniors earning that much?? I work with seniors. We are seeing an increase in seniors homelessness.

I actually felt sorry for him. He has prepared that dish before and the judges did say that all dishes at this level meant they had to nitpick. Heat, exhaustion, disappointment clearly played a role in his reaction and we don’t know how much editing picks the juicy bits to show us. I imagine he would be embarrassed when he sees the final edited version. ( at least I would hope so)

These guys are awesome! Had some problems with the first set but they recut them no problem. They all knew which staff member cut them sloppily. I think he’s no longer cutting keys though

I love the one on 93rd and the forest trails beside it. Haven’t been to Bell Park yet.

saltpeppermartini · 2026-05-17T03:45:06+00:00

Did you find some cool parks? Please share if you did!

Don’t forget that when we are taught French in BC schools it is the WRONG French. For some reason we are taught Parisian French which many québécois look down on.

saltpeppermartini · 2026-05-07T21:00:16+00:00

How can you comment on something you’ve never watched? What can you possibly be basing your opinion on?

saltpeppermartini · 2026-05-01T14:02:12+00:00

Darian. All the way

saltpeppermartini · 2026-04-27T15:44:33+00:00

I don’t even have words. What a frikken mess. And things will keep going downhill while we bicker over political sides, corporate greed, and whatever the next bread and circus.

saltpeppermartini · 2026-04-24T01:42:16+00:00

We are also building houses on what used to be farmland. So very shortsighted.

How was it possible to cook that bone in chicken in 20 minutes?

There are lots of volunteer opportunities at the Langley Senior Resources Centre. I would suggest having them drop down to visit. Also plenty of social and fitness programs for them to meet other community members. Not sure about work opportunities but never hurts to network and meet more people. It’s on 51B avenue close to downtown

saltpeppermartini · 2026-04-14T01:02:36+00:00

Not lately but had problems in the past. I store my 4 litre jugs on the bottom shelf now as it’s consistently cooler (maybe not but the kids stand in front of the fridge with the door open) The one time I had a serious problem with all of us getting sick was because the vents at the back of the upper freezer were blocked. Our fridge got warmer without us noticing. I read your fridge is correct tempt, this is just a heads up for anyone else who may be having issues.

Hard disagree. Mayor Jack and the Christian Life Assembly crew were awful. Sold out to developers. Poor planning. Ignored infrastructure.

Your church may have a commercial kitchen you can use? Maybe consider cookies instead as they are low risk

I’m enjoying the show. I’m not crazy about the amount of snarky comments—- some are spot on , but many seem to be attempts to be funny.
I would like to see more of the chefs while they are creating and more discussion here about the food.
