Summer's Guilty Pleasure...

You may think that my guilty summer pleasure would be planting a Japanese Maple tree in a planter and treating it like a $150 annual, but no, that was so last year.... my guilty pleasure this year is The Bachelorette. Embarassing, I know, but there we were, Grace and I, last night having some mother/daughter bonding time with a pad of paper making our bets on who was going to win. We had a little spreadsheet going with 3 headings - TOP 10, BUBBLE PLAYERS, and NEVER. We didn't do too badly, choosing 12 of the 20 guys in our TOP 10 and Bubble categories. Our top picks, as displayed and described on our spreadsheet are as follows: Kiptyn (8-pack, oh my!), Wes (country singer guy), Jake (sensitive pilot), Jesse (winemaker) and Mark (pizza guy). We moved Bubble player David up after he redeemed himself from losing his mind when he stepped out of the limo and stood in complete silence for 17 seconds. It was one of those "I think I have to change the channel, cause I can't stand this" moments. He then composed himself inside the house and now we call him David (sensitive crying guy). Dark horse, although too creepy for me is Juan (squirrelly contractor guy). He was initially on the TOP 10, but moved to Bubble after some creepy moments in the house. I'm sure this will provide for riveting conversation over the next several weeks, but now I'm in too deep to stop watching - I have a spreadsheet going and a side bet with my daughter, so will keep you posted!
Another rainy day in Calgary, but supposed to clear this afternoon. Head out to Spruce with the kids and check out our new play structure - it was a hit over the weekend!
