1856 Plan

Just found this 1856 plan of the Township of Etobicoke in Arcgis. It's always interesting to see how much and yet how little has changed in 170 years. I could go over this for hours.

No need to have a login. Click Browse Layers (plus sign on top left) and under Living Atlas search for Toronto (or Etobicoke); it's the only overlay available. To compare, play around with the transparency or blending (multiply under darken is what I have here, which is perfect to clearly see both the overlay and the underlying map).

Updating my flair to U25

Got my MINI today, the sixth since 2008 and the first that was from stock at the dealership instead of custom ordering and waiting for it to be shipped over. It's going to take me a while to get through all the apps and options, but I'm not complaining. 😁

Will need to think of a name, although I didn't have one for the F60. Previous names were: Paddy Hearse, Churchill, and Archibald. Maybe Heinrich from Leipzig?

In France, eggs and bacon are being fried directly in the sun, temperatures have exceeded 45°C

Rail traffic has been disrupted, schools have been closed, and part of the nuclear energy sector has been temporarily shut down.

A mass of hot air from the Sahara has covered southern Europe and is moving further east.

Crispy brussel sprouts with smoked bacon

At Miku. 3.5/5. The lot couldv'e been crispier (and had been last time we were here), but tasty nonetheless. Partner wouldn't have the fatty bits; I gobbled those up! Aburi sushi was so good, though. 🤤

I just realized I don't usually have bacon at home, only in hotels and restaurants.

Anyway, here's some Canadian bacon (back bacon) and side bacon, which was on the paper-thin side.
