Today's FotoFriday feature is Snowmageden (thanks to Lumbric Al for the title). The pictures were taken while driving around during the 'sinister' blizzard last Friday (Feb 8th 2013) that hit Mississauga. Some of the pictures appear grainy due to the snowfall and night shots taken without a flash or tripod. I'm hoping for one more good snowfall this year to go out and get some more shots. The rest of the set can be view at FlickR.

Character Wednesday Delayed to Saturday
I apologize for the delay in posting the Character Wednesday reviews. The schedule has been a little overwhelming with putting the finishing touches on the home renovations, school assignments and being off sick two days this week. I haven't forgotten. Also I have decided that the indepth look at the comics I mentioned previously will require their own seperate treatments to do them justice. Stay tuned.

Character Wednesday's: Death of the Family
The long awaited conclusion to the Joker's saga of madness has arrived. Batman #17 Death of the Family: The Punchline is here. (There are no spoilers in this post)
If you have been following the story line which intertwines with a number of the other DC New 52 titles (Batgirl, Batman & Robin, Nightwing..) you maybe in for a surprise. If you haven't kept up with the latest Batman chronicles then you are missing out on some fun. The Death of the Family is a really good Joker storyline with a few interesting twists. The premise of the story is that Joker is arranging a "romantic" dinner for the Batman and extended family, of course with his own sick and demented twist. Bloggin B will be taking an indepth look at the 'The Punchline' conclusion later tonight. Get your copy today!!! Stay tuned to this Bat Channel.
Today's Photo: Ashes to Dust
Snapped this photo last year outside a Church after their Ash Wednesday Mass. The ashes are made up of burnt palms from the previous year's Palm Sunday celebration and then placed on the forehead of the recipient. The ashes are a reminder to Catholics of the fact that one day they will return to the earth and become dust.

A taste of Brazil Bakery
The Apple Strudels (pictured left) are really really good. Definately would go back to pick up some more of those. Also the veal sandwich with cheese, mushroom and onion sauce for 4.95 is a reasonably priced sandwich. The onions were a little chunky in the sauce but a good veal sandwich all around. I also picked up some fresh coffee which is on the lighter side. Not a big coffee drinker but I like mine more like an expresso. Preference is preference.
So if you are in the neighbourhood of Erin Mills drop by and check them out sometime. They have a nice selection of pasteries. They have big macaroons also, who doesn't like macaroons? Friendly and upbeat staff also helps make a little sit in joint all the more enjoyable.

Favorites
So the game is over and done, now all we have to do is talk about the Halftime Show, Beyonce's strip tease entourage, The Illuminati turning off the power, return of Destiny's Child and of course the commercials its all about the commercials. I didn't watch the entire game not going to lie, because first off I'm just not all that into football and second once the Iron Man 3 trailer hit I had no reason to continue watching. Let's be honest this year its all about Tony Stark. But I have to admit was actually quite amusing when the power went off and the twitter feeds went hysteric with two rivaling theories on the cause.... Beyonce's electrifying performance ultimately drained all the power and secondly well who else can we blame but the Illuminati. So there you have it folks entertainment at its finest...
So what we're your favorite commercials for Superbowl 2013? I have mine listed below (embedded)

FotoFriday: Copatville
Today's FotoFriday feature is CopatVille. One of my close family friends has a tradition of building a Christmas Village. Over the years she has collected the different buildings and citizens of "Copatville". This mini city is quite the site to see... Here are a few snapshots from the set which you can view the rest over at FlickR.
