I am pretty sure I have gained a few new readers in the last week or so and reckon it is about time to hit you all with an update. Oh, and that's right...I sure did say "reckon". In fact that may just be the tip of the iceberg when it comes to my upcoming usage of native Australian lingo! Now that i am down under on the newest and coolest installment of the "Crazy Love" world domination tour I figure I am more than entitled to!
So back to the newest followers in the every growing, and expanding ramblings or postings that are indeed mine. Well I have been thinking lately about what it must have been that brought you into this expanded listing of followers, and without a shadow of a doubt I have come to the conclusion that it must have been the January month long special presentation "Cooking with Craigers". It seems to have been a hit of sorts thus leading me to conclude you new fans and followers are here with hopes of new and exciting recipes. Please don't you spend a minute worrying, as there will be plenty of future episodes of the smash it....just not right now. Craigers is in Australia and looking forward to meals out and yummy catering! Future episodes may contain guests or guest recipes, a possible collaboration, and potentially even a bloopers and highlight entry. However for now the show is in fact on hiatus while I, Craigers, resumes regular broadcast duties.
So back on my chair under the stage left staircase I call home again. A massive sold out tour of Australia with some dates in SE Asia at the end. The real kicker to the whole tour however though is that of my mini Thai getaway at the end. Eight glorious days will be spent on the island of Koh Phi Phi. Which i hear from previous visitors is pretty damn stunning! Australia is mad for Michael and this tour has been sold out since May of last year. I do not quite know the math on the tour but i can say that is all multiple nights in all major cities and all well sold out! So here we go again! The timing is right and I am ready to go , but that is not without saying i thoroughly enjoyed my last extended break.
No work for me since December 15th of last year when we flew home from performing on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno which concluded a month long US tour, the third full US leg of the Crazy Love Tour. In fact the show here on Friday night will be that of 110 out of who the hell knows. Many Many more to come i am sure. Getting back to my break I have to admit it was well needed, well deserved, and well appreciated. I was able to make my new little apartment into a nice cozy home. I was able to prepare some of my own meals and document their great success in my tummy! I was able to connect with some old friends and make some new ones. Actually to be honest i may have even lost one or two. Sometimes Craigers can show the true gemini in his personality and it's not always nice. Back to good things though...ha. I really honestly felt a connection and bond with my home, my friends, and the city I call home , Vancouver.
With most of my time spent home reconnecting with my home , i was able to spend the holidays in Calgary as well as one other quick visit near the end of January. For those of you who ask about my mom or wonder about her recovery I must say that she is doing astonishing! Without going into great detail she really has a second lease on life and I believe we are all well on our way to making the most of it!
Okay so I know that in the past i have promised lots of photos, or interviews with the crew. This tour I promise nothing, as with our last Australian tour the slogan "Irresponsible in Australia" is not without saying. It takes a whole crew to make things happen though, not just yours truly. This time i promise nothing to you all except for randomness, honesty, some quirky things, and hopefully regularity. I plan on just writing lots as i feel the need to write. Sometimes these can be the ramblings of a madman, other times they can be insight into a pure genius, (maybe too far). In any event I am back on the road and life is good....stay tuned...
