What are you getting for Christmas/what are you hoping for?

I got a blue tooth turn table with Tool Fear Inoculum

Was in Dubai past couple weeks, now flying back to Saudi, my gf still lives in Hong Kong, family in Mtl, no public holidays in this part of the world, dont even realize it's Christmas.

I just want to get vegetarian cookbooks. Trying to live more sustainably.

I'm glad for you. I adopted a mostly vegetarian diet, for that reason, sustainability. When I do eat meat, I eat what I call "b" animals. Less popular animals, goose, boar, bison, goat, rabbit. Animals that aren't being rushed and over farmed. Cliche term but flexitarian diet is the future.

Got my fingers crossed that a hummer is on the way.

Probably a die cast toy one

Since this forum is completely dysfunctional, we're bound to get posters who will be hoping for one of these two options ...

Maybe you could have waited a few days to let your dumb machismo through, thats not really the christmas spirit.

Good grief, get over yourself, it was a little humor. No need for indignation.

You know, humor is usually funny

A good hangover

And I got this one for my children ... and for me as well I must confess

I could go for a game right now, especially after some Pink Kush.

Got a Fitbit Versa 2 and a temperature control kettle. And a bunch of smaller things.

Most overly sensitive miss out.

That looks like Sweden playing Canada! Stiga is a swedish company so most likely the blue and yellow are "Tre Kronor" I used to play a lot when I was a kid. We even put potato starch on the "ice" to make the puck go faster. That brings up nice memories from when I was 8-10 years old. Very nice.

How much would it cost to fill that up with petrol?

 

[Per Sjoblom]

I bought myself the Samsung Galaxy Active 2 watch which I really like. You can even swim down to 50 meters depth (not that I would do or could do that). It's a great tracker of workouts, it will get ECG in february. Battery lasts 2 days and I use quite a bit (BT music using headphones, sms, emails, weather. My son is coming over in half an hour and I have made traditional Swedish Christmas food plus turkey as well. He even eats pickled herring.

It is Canada VS Sweden indeed

It's not really how much but how often.

I'm similar to you. Over the last few months, I've mostly gone vegetarian. When I cook, the meals I prepare are vegetarian. If I go out to a nice restaurant, I'll sometimes order fish, seafood, or meat but I stay away from beef and lamb now. I've also been doing my grocery shopping at zero-waste stores and farmer's markets. It's impossible to live a perfectly sustainable lifestyle and I'm constantly learning but I've found over the past few months that it's really easy to reduce your carbon footprint and your waste (especially plastic) by making some relatively easy choices that don't inconvenience you or reduce your quality of life.



I found this video really helpful. It gives you an idea of the carbon footprint of different types of food.

In Canadian dollars, $120-150 with a realistic operating range of 700 kms, it's literally a 4wd Prius Are we still actually talking about the vehicle or something else?

Careful.....touchy subject.
