Thanks to the delightful and darling Ruth, a bunch of us headed (slightly) north to Lake Winnipeg for a weekend at the cottage. It was a weekend filled with sun, cool breezes, potato chips, burnt hot dogs, ill-fitting sun hats, bilingual toddlers, Tetra-Pak’d wine, nautical themes, driftwood hunting, blond sand, alarming algae, ant-flies, Scrabble, babies learning to drink from straws for the first time, boobs, chocolate cake, steep inclines, erosion, skipping stones, vintage Fisher Price toys, “Je vais faire un petit do-do,” i.e. naps, threateningly threadbare lawn chairs, sand, neurotic iPod playlists, and of course, the best of friends.
