Coming Soon.....

Just a quick post to share:

Crazy!!! It all seems like some delightful dream I had. Being back in Toronto, dodging junkies on Yonge Street, has made me wonder at times if I really did spend two and a half glorious months on the West Coast falling in love with my TV family...Spending time with Connor and his Mom once a week since I've been back has helped.

Thai Yoga massage is still in the "trying out my new moves" phase. Bruce let me practise on him the other day. I think it went well - as soon as I finished he got up, went into the bedroom and napped for 25 minutes!

I spent 12 hours yesterday (5:30pm - 5:30am) shooting a commercial for Maple Leaf Chicken. If you're still a meat eater (which I am...I'm from Alberta after all!).....you will be interested to know what I learned from the kind folks at Maple Leaf. In Canada it is LEGAL to say that a chicken is "grain fed" so long as it has met the minimal requirement of having consumed only ONE GRAM of grain in it's lifetime! It may very well have eaten other things...but it can still be called "grain fed". Where Maple Leaf is different is that their chicken is "VEGETABLE GRAIN FED"....which means NO animal proteins have been ingested by their chicken - and it makes a big difference in the taste. It also means their chicken costs more than other chicken.....I suggested that THAT is the sort of info that I want to know as a consumer and I'm more than willing to spend the extra money to know that my chicken hasn't consumed other chicken, or cow, or pig..or God knows what else! Anyhow - chances are good that you won't recognise me in the spot as I'm blind-folded so my face is half hidden.

Not much else to report. Gearing up for a Christmas in Toronto....and getting ready to hit the road again in January when I go out to Guleph to do Anton Chekov's "The Bear" and "The Yalta Game".....which I'm REALLY looking forward to!

Happy Holidays to all!
