Practicing with @JasonCrandell on Glo.com today. I finally managed #EkaPadaKoundinyasana with my right leg forward! I broke and displaced several ribs on my left side a few years ago, rendering this pose inaccessible until today. Thank you, Jason! Sometimes obstacles can be knocked down. I hurdled over this one today. 😉. #yoga #YogaAtHome #YogaOver50 #YogaPractice #fitness #YogaPose #workout #YogaChallenge #strength #mobility #yogaonline #HomeWorkouts #Vinyasa

@sonyasteele OMG, this is one of my all-time favorite #MovieClips. The #NicholasBrothers were from another planet, I think, because there's no way human beings can move like that. They were the epitome of beauty, grace, strength, and excitement. My heart wants to burst every time I see this. #BlackFriday #BlackMastodon

I almost missed #WaterfallWednesday
Here's that time I visited #FallingWater, a masterpiece designed by #FrankLloydWright, and almost got kicked out for taking a photo inside.

Wed. May 13, 2026: Steady Work Rhythm

Waning Moon

Rainy and cool
Happy mid-week! I hope yours is going well.
Yesterday, I did some housework/hauled out the garbage, dealt with some admin. My mood improved, mostly because the cats were being hilarious.
I buckled down and worked on the ghostwriting, polishing the 20K assignment and getting it out just before lunch.
After lunch, I did some more admin work, and then went back to BETTING MAN. I did about 1700 words, finishing chapter fourteen and starting chapter fifteen. I then started layering in some insert scenes to an earlier chapter where I had to smooth out a logic loophole and add a red herring that would affect things moving forward.
I prefer to work in full drafts, but my outline for this book wasn’t as tight as it should be, plus I changed direction with one arc that will affect the next several books, so I need to fix things in this draft in order to build on them. There are also things from STAGE FALL, the next book, that I have to seed in here, and I need to look at what I wrote on that (years ago, a lot will be changed) that needs to be seeded.
It’s not a particularly interesting day to read about, but it was a solid workday. Steady, got good work done, not stressful.
There’s some exciting news on the local theatre front. Molly Merrihew, who was the Managing Director of WAM, is now Executive Director of Shakespeare & Co. That’s a great opportunity for her, and they are lucky to have her. I really enjoyed working with her at WAM, and I look forward to staying in touch and cheering her on at Shakespeare & Co. Erin Patrick, who was the General Manager at WAM, moves into the Managing Director position – right before she goes on maternity leave! So that will make for an interesting summer, just as WAM’s season gets under way. But we’ll all pitch in however is needed.
By then, it was time to get ready for yoga. I got changed and walked up to the studio. It was a little cool, but still a lovely walk, with clear blue skies and things in bloom.
Class was terrific. Joey the service dog joined us again, which is always a treat. Walked home, heated up some leftovers for dinner, and read in the evening.
Slept reasonably well, although at 2:30, Charlotte decided the only possible place she could perch was on my rib cage. We negotiated, and I managed to get back to sleep until Tessa got me out of bed around 5:30, the usual time.
The morning routine was fine. I figured out the next section of BETTING MAN, that I will work on today, before switching back over to the ghostwriting this afternoon. Also this afternoon, I go down to Savvy Hive to pick up the first CSA box of the season! It’s supposed to rain all day, so I will probably drive, and maybe do some of the errands I would have done tomorrow. Since I’m going to be at the Clark event (at Shakespeare & Co., no less) from mid-afternoon to early evening with a friend tomorrow, I want to take some of tomorrow’s tasks off that plate and put them on today’s plate instead.
Have a great day!

Dernièrement, j’ai été invitée à un voyage de presse pour découvrir quelques destinations de la région de Victoriaville. J’étais très heureuse de participer à cette tournée car, bien que je sois allée plusieurs fois dans cette région, je ne connaissais pas ces endroits charmants que nous avons visités. Voici un loooong article avec beaucoup de photos sur ma tournée dans la région de Victoriaville!
Qui n’aime pas les fleurs? Cet immense champ de fleurs est d’une beauté remarquable. Comme son nom l’indique, la Pivoinerie Lili se spécialise dans la culture des pivoines. Mais il y a aussi des tulipes, des dahlias, des glaïeuls et plein d’autres fleurs à couper pour un bouquet personnalisé.
C’est là que le bonheur commence. En arrivant dans la boutique (en libre service), on prend un vase, des ciseaux et on paye en argent ou par transfert «interact» pour remplir ce vase de belles fleurs selon nos désir et selon ce que la saison a à nous offrir! Il y en a vraiment pour tous les goûts. Toutes les couleurs, toutes les grandeurs, on se sent comme des princesses des fleurs… Et ça fait tellement de belles photos!
Derrière moi ce sont des plants de pivoines mais la saison est déjà terminée.Lizianne Fortier, en propriétaire passionnée, nous a parlé de l’histoire de cette ferme florale et de ses inspirations pour les fragrances qu’on retrouve à la boutique, sous forme d’eau de linge, d’eau florale pour le visage, de nettoyant et mousse pour le bain ou de lotion hydratante.
La ferme florale offre plusieurs événements durant la saison. Par exemple, le yoga dans les fleurs et le thé de l’après-midi à la Bridgerton !
La boutique (libre service) et le champ (auto-cueillette) sont ouverts tous les jours de 8 h à 20 h. Il est à noter que l’auto-cueillette est en pose jusqu’au 27 août afin que le champ se regarnisse de belles fleurs! Pour plus de détail consultez le site internet.
En plus des produits de parfumerie et pour les soins du corps, on trouve également à la boutique des bouquets de fleurs coupées ou séchées, des semences et même des gelées de fleurs.
Mesdames, mettez votre belle robe et allez cueillir des fleurs à la Pivoinerie Lili!

St-Albert (Québec) J0A 1E0La Chevalerie de Jade est un sanctuaire zoothérapeutique où vous pouvez rencontrer des animaux dans leur habitat naturel. Il y a, entre autres, des chevaux, lamas, ânes, vache, cochons, émeus, oies et un pavillon d’animaux exotiques comme des perroquets et des singes. Plusieurs animaux exotiques côtoient les animaux de la ferme traditionnelle.
Un petit lémurien qui fait peur!!!Si vous aimez les animaux au point de vouloir les toucher, c’est l’endroit qu’il faut visiter. On ne peut pas tous les approcher mais si vous souhaiter caresser l’ânon ou le lama c’est possible!
Un lama qui se roule par terreÀ la Chevalerie de Jade, on marche, en prenant son temps, tout en admirant la nature. Il y a même un cochon qui se prend pour une vache des Highland! La propriétaire Ann Sayer et les employés sont vraiment en amour avec ces animaux qui ont tous des prénoms. Ils peuvent tous les nommer !
Un cochon qui se prend pour une vacheOn peut aussi visiter la boutique où est présentée une sélection de produits diversifiés de la ferme et de la région. Un bel endroit pour faire un pique-nique est disponible sur place. Consultez le site web pour l’horaire, les coûts et les réservations pour visiter la Chevalerie de jade.

819-330-0060Pour les amateurs de gin et de cocktail, la Distillerie Euclide est à visiter. Située dans le parc industriel de Victoriaville, la distillerie possède une boutique où vous pourrez goûter aux différents gins faits à partir de résidus de jus de canneberge.
Effectivement, les instigateurs de ce projet ont imaginé un gin issu de la transformation alimentaire du résidu de la canneberge qui serait jeté autrement. Le gin est ensuite aromatisé avec des fleurs et des zestes d’orange.
Comme vous savez je ne bois pas d’alcool mais les personnes qui m’accompagnaient étaient unanimes pour ce qui est du goût de ce gin: succulent!
Je vous laisse la recette d’un petit cocktail offert lors de notre passage à la distillerie Euclide. Une création de la sommelière Chantal Loisel.
Soleil de Fraise
2 on de Gin
1/2 on de jus de citron
1/2 on de sirop simple
2 on de jus de fraise ou fruite du dragon (Delmotte)
Environ 2 ou 3 fraises tranchées
Méga mousse (mousse végane) ou blanc d’oeuf battu
1/2 on de sirop de fraise
1/4 on de jus de citronDans un shaker, écraser les fraises avec le sirop. Ajouter de la glace, le Gin, le jus de citron et le jus de fraise. Agiter vigoureusement. Verser en filtrant dans un verre. Faire mousser la mousse végane ou le blanc d’oeuf avec 1/4 on de jus de citron et le sirop de fraise. Verser sur le verre. Garnir de fraises fraiches.
Au dire de mes collègues, c’est délicieux!Distillerie Euclide

Victoriaville (Québec) G6T 2V9Le vignoble Les Côtes du Gavet est situé sur un très grand domaine de 130 acres à Tingwick, tout près de Victoriaville. Les vignes sont en flancs de coteaux et c’est vraiment magnifique avec un petit air de Toscane! Les premières vignes ont été plantées en 2000 et le vignoble compte aujourd’hui 8000 vignes en production. On peut circuler entre les rangs de vignes chargées de raisins.
Crédit photo Jester PhotonLes vins sont fabriqués à partir de cépages bien adaptés au climat québécois. Sont offerts, des bulles blanches ou roses selon la méthode champenoise, un vin blanc, un vin rosé, un vin rouge, un vin pétillant blanc et un vin pétillant rosé et finalement, un porto goûteux.
Il est possible de visiter le vignoble et goûter aux vins tout à fait gratuitement en se rendant sur place. Ça peut être l’occasion d’un beau pique-nique! La boutique est ouverte pour les achats. Les passionnés vignerons, une affaire de famille, auront beaucoup de plaisir à vous raconter l’histoire de chaque vin et chaque millésime.
Le vignoble offre aussi des soirées pizza. Cuites au four à bois devant nous, ces pizzas sont accompagnées d’un vin du vignoble. Il parait que c’est le vigneron lui-même, coiffé d’un beau chapeau, qui fait la cuisine! Les soirées pizza ont lieu les vendredi et samedi soir. Il faut réserver sa place à l’avance. (Forfait pour deux personnes: 2 pizzas 10 po au choix et 1 bouteille de vin au choix 70$)
Le vignoble Les Côtes du Gavet est un endroit très zen et relaxant. La nature, c’est tellement beau! Et, comme à la distillerie Euclide, mes collègues m’ont confirmé que le vin, surtout la méthode champenoise, était très bon!
La terrasse et le vignoble sont ouverts au public du 31 mai au 31 octobre, les vendredi, samedi et dimanche et du 1 novembre au 31 avril sur réservation seulement. Pour tous les détails consultez la page Facebook. Le site web est en reconstruction et sera disponible très bientôt!

Puis tant qu’à visiter la région de Victoriaville, vous pourriez vous sustenter à la Fromagerie Victoria qui offre plusieurs variétés de fromage dont le cheddar, le fromage en grains et les tortillons. La poutine est très bonne parait-il! Ou chez Bagelicieux, où on propose plus de 30 variétés de bagel, des sandwiches (ou plutôt bagelwiches) et autres gâteries comme des salades et biscuits délicieux! La Poissonnerie La Moulinière est aussi un incontournable avec ses poissons frais, fruits de mer et produits maison. Sans oublier son bar à tartare, où l’on peut concocter sur place son tartare de poisson à son goût.
Tous des fromages de la fromagerie Victoria dont le fameux fromage en «crotte» La célèbre (et délicieuse) poutine de la fromagerie Victoria Quelques délices de la Poissonnerie La moulinière Notre diner, gracieuseté de BagelicieuxBref, cette journée dans la région de Victoriaville a été vraiment une découverte! C’était tellement agréable que je retournerais à chacun de ces endroits! C’était aussi super de revoir mes amies et collègues de Montréal. Que du bonheur!
La fin de l’été et l’automne ont beaucoup à offrir! Il est encore temps de planifier une visite dans cette très belle région du Québec!
Merci beaucoup à Tourisme Victoriaville et sa région et tous nos hôtes, ce fut un bonheur de vous découvrir! Merci aussi à Josianne Isabel (du blogue Par Josianne) qui a organisé la visite et sa collègue Alexandra qui nous ont supporté tout au long de la journée!
