Yep! I think it's silly too!

If you come for lunch, we can get to meet each other. Otherwise, make sure that you ask to speak to me after you reserve so I can LC VIP your table.

Just to let you know, the reservation for 4 (me, Ruth, Wynter and my work friend, Anna) is made for Sunday, October 19th at 2 PM. If anyone else wants to join us, please let me know and I will see if the Fish House can accommodate us! Other than that, see you all on Sunday!

Jean, I'll be at the Sunday tea at 2 pm, too! Table of 4 under "Lily". I'll look for you on Sunday. If you'd like to see who's going to be scanning the room for you, I've attached a picture of myself - I'm the non-blonde on the right.

Hi Karen aand all --

First time I've been on the Internet in several days, and I've one thing to say:
VANCOUVER IS THE RAINIEST CITY I'VE EVER BEEN IN! AGGHHH!!! WE'RE WASHING AWAY!

At this point I have no idea what we're up to -- we're having a fine time here, but so far all our plans have been rained away, so to speak. We're kind of pinned down at the Victorian Hotel in Gastown, and have not gotten to many of the places we've wanted to go, including Stanley Park. We still want to come, but will have to play our cards as they're laid!

A very wet "Cheers," Robert

Oh, and do you see that rain hat I am wearing in my kayaking photo to your left? I've gotten a lot of use from that hat in the past few days!

Yep! You're here in the rainy season. It's like this all winter. Now, the whole summer was fabulous! The lack of rain was record breaking and now the rain is record breaking. Go figure!

You're in my neighborhood! If you want a cheap and cheerful LC meal, try Incendio on the corner of Columbia and Alexander. Have the roasted chicken with salad.

Thanks Jeanyyy!

Karen, I have a question - I haven't been to one of your LC events at the Fish House ... will there be info available at the Tea as to approximate carb counts for each of the treats? Just wondering ...

Wynter

I don't give out carb counts on the food. At the dinners we don't follow recipes, we just cook low-carb so there is no way to have a count. I want people to come and enjoy eating without fretting...

For the tea, the scones will be the carbiest things. They're 3.6 grams each. Everything else is pretty teeny so I would say for the other eight things, another 8 carbs.

Karen
