Love, love, love.

Here she addresses the whole Abercrombie and Fitch clothing controversy.

All you need is love...and a little help from Paul can't hurt...

I'm not big on Jumbotron/overly public wedding proposals, but THIS is pretty cool.  On stage at a Paul McCartney concert.  Check it out.  Here's the article.

Well, this beats my Mothers Day gift...

There have been a few of these videos recently - no less heartwarming though.  A guy buys his mom a house for Mothers Day.

This kid is too cute.

 

It's real! A cardboard tube fighting league!

Hold up....before you do the responsible thing and recycle that empty wrapping paper roll - check this out.  There is a league dedicated to cardboard tube fighting!  How amazing is that?!  It's even got a wikipedia page (so it must be real...?)

The ultimate morph!

Posted By: Heather Ray http://www.boom997.com/Blog/Heather/home.aspx · 5/7/2013 2:34:00 PM

Watch the morphing of 50 classic Hollywood starlets.  (morphing just sounds bad - transition sounds nicer)

The guy's laugh is what gets me.

Kindness caught on camera

Posted By: Heather Ray http://www.boom997.com/Blog/Heather/home.aspx · 5/6/2013 3:00:00 PM

I'm not sure how they got all this footage, but it's great to see this kind of simple kindness. 

It's also an important reminder to be kind.  It's really pretty easy to do.

May means outdoor markets!

Posted By: Heather Ray http://www.boom997.com/Blog/Heather/home.aspx · 5/6/2013 2:04:00 PM

They're baaaaaack.  A bunch of farmers' markets opened for business this past Saturday (and what a perfect weekend for it)!  Others will be starting up later this month.  (the Westboro farmers' market opens May 18th)

For a list of markets including start/duration of the season, location and hours, check out this site.

 

Make your own (non-poutine) pop

Posted By: Heather Ray http://www.boom997.com/Blog/Heather/home.aspx · 5/3/2013 2:20:00 PM

So Jones Soda Co has come out with a poutine flavoured soda pop.  Gross.

Here's a cool experiment to do with the kids this weekend - make your own fizzy drink - no poutine involved.

Just lemon, water, baking soda and sugar to sweeten it.

Here's the recipe.  

This is so gross!

Posted By: Heather Ray http://www.boom997.com/Blog/Heather/home.aspx · 5/2/2013 2:01:00 PM

You know how there are some things that are super gross - and part of you doesn't want to look, but the other part does?  Well, if you want to see a nasty gross chunk out of a guy's foot from a snake bite - here ya go.  (it reminds me of Aaron Eckhart's face in the Batman movie after he gets burned....only this is real!)  Outdoor adventure guy Bear Grylls tweeted it - one of the producers of 'Man vs Wild' got bitten. 

EEEK!!!!  I wanted to post the picture, but decided I better give you the option - to look or not to look.
