Unfortunately I'm not sure how well this trusty old Canon IXUS is going to work, as the flash is quite obnoxious. Not a flattering flash in the slightest. Do I spend some money and hope for a better camera/flash? Or save the $200 and use it while in Europe? I'm thinking the latter. I'll have to get creative with alternative lighting.
Kyle and Michele: Friends from university. Michele and I lived together for a year in townhouses at SFU; Kyle is her lovely boyfriend. We enjoyed brunch together on Saturday at Two Chefs and a Table, east of Gastown. Kyle's uncle is co-owner and chef. I had the amazing strawberry apple pancakes with vanilla butter, syrup and beautiful hashbrowns.
Shina: A former childhood acquaintance and reunited friend through university residence. Joined us for brunch. She got into the hand posing, wanting to include her allergy bracelet and offer 'vertical depth' to her hand pose.
Courtney: Fellow Communication student, and Crafty Lady. The group of us made cupcakes Saturday afternoon (my sister's Dr Pepper recipe was a hit). As you can see, I tried to avoid use of the flash. Not so successful. But the cinnamon cream cheese icing on that mini cake still looks fantastically teeth-rotting.
Jen: my best friend. We grew up together, leading sports teams and joining forces on school projects. After losing touch over a few years, we reappeared in each others' lives during rocky relationships and fortunately get to hang out once a week – even despite the trek from White Rock to Vancouver. She was slightly self-conscious of her self-claimed 'sausage fingers' though I have to disagree; her hands are strong and suit her caring yet assertive personality. Her ring is from Mexico, and is the same as ones on both her mother and sister's hands.
