#tower 1

Photos from January 24’s 3-alarm residential fire on Stafford Street in Toronto. Three houses were involved, addresses 39-43 Stafford Street.

Toronto Fire Services crews battled stubborn fire conditions that continued to burn for over 90 minutes. Despite the extensive fire, crews maintained an offensive interior attack the entire time.

This was supplemented by roof operations, targeting fire that had extended into the attic and eaves by cutting sections of roof and dousing with water.

She’d summoned too many bananas. Distraction and the desire to bake banana bread got the better of her, and suddenly three dozen bunches of bananas covered the island countertop in the 4th floor kitchen, leaving Azra both annoyed with herself and resolved to make an absolutely comical amount of banana bread. It was a good thing she was surrounded by potential stress eaters. Hopefully they liked unbaked bananas, too. Two loaves currently cooled on wire racks on another surface next to the stove while another two baked in the oven. More batter sat in a bowl amidst the sea of bananas in addition to raw ingredients spread around the room. Rose’s power had worn off perhaps an hour and a half earlier, which meant if she ran out of something, she’d be stuck with a hoard of bananas and not much to do with them.

Phone in her hand, Azra sat on a clear spot on the island and scrolled through Instagram without actually seeing any posts as she idly used her free hand to slowly eat chocolate chips from the bag at her hip. Her thoughts wandered from the mundane and childish--Balfour let me pet him and he was very sweet about it despite clearly looking displeased! Maybe he likes me!--to more weighty topics, such as how to possibly get her fellow councilors to actually work together rather than rip each other apart.

Not that she thought she could do much where that was concerned. She’d never really given them a reason to listen to her, so why would they start now?

finally continued watching: interview with the vampire. (we still not done with season 1).

also binge watched tutorial videos about motor maintenance until my brain actually hurt. looked for parts and researched where i can find cheap but good ones.

those wasabi seaweed snack we bought from the k-mart across the street was amazing. the spiciness and the way it burns the roof of your mouth and into your nose ain't a joke. i liked it.

played nba on the ipad, then slept most of the hours away.

wasn't able to take more pictures of the room. i decided to do it before we even leave, but the host (actually assistant of the host) arrived early.

searched for restaurants for lunch and found one that sells steaks for a cheap price. food only ranges around 100-200php for single meals. (group meals are of course more pricey). we bought ribeye steak, honey bbq wings, strawberry shake, and their own iced coffee. everything was delicious and i enjoyed it.
