I feel like chicken tonight... and pink skies in the morning means something different here
I was walking to work this morning (well, to the train to work) and was enjoying the brilliant pink sky, but at the same time, the old saying...pink skies in the morning, sailors take warning was playing in my head. I was disappointed thinking our weather was about to get stormy. I ran into another former Atlantic EY-er in the +15 (that's the pedway for those back home) and was mentioning it to him and then he reminded me... not too many sailors in Calgary! So apparently that saying is a maritime (as in near the water, not the actual Maritime provinces) saying! In Calgary, it just means a pretty walk to the train, sunshine and +15 degrees at 6:30pm!
I also discovered another Calgary-esque thing... I thought that the BBQ left behind by the previous tenant was broken, but another form Atlantic EY-er told me about this yellow knob thingy that I had to turn to get the natural gas flowing... doh! Why didn't I think of that? Even when I used a propane tank at home, I still had to turn it on! So, all that to say... BBQ chicken tonight and leftovers for lunch tomorrow on a giant Pete's ToGoGo-style salad!
