Wishing all my fellow Canadians a Happy Canada Day.

I'm so very proud to be Canadian/fier d'être canadien! I love my country and there's no place like it. The True North strong and free!

There are a whole lot of activities going on today but I'm home relaxing instead as lady__croft & I are going to Stratford this weekend to see Shakespeare In Love. Got the ( Read more... )

Headed over to Leslieville this afternoon.....never spent time in this part of town before. It used to be so run down and shabby now it's filled with boutique shops and quaint bistros and chic cafes. After window shopping and stopping in Value Village where I purchased a fabulous pair of jeans for a whopping $10 it was time for lunch. Found a place ( Read more... )

( Or do all of this..... )

Went to the Distillery to check out their Christmas market  - got lost in all the booths selling everything from food to jewelry, and one of a kind crafts! Reminiscent of Vienna, Germany and Scandinavia at Christmas time! There were two actual reindeer there for everyone to enjoy as well as a maze that let to Santa for the little ones (ok I did go ( Read more... )

Happy long weekend everyone! No major plans as it's supposed to storm all weekend. Not sure how much rain we'll get but enough that indoors is probably the best place to be. Hopefully the storm will hold off for a quick trip to the farmers market in the AM then settle in for some reading, movies and overall relaxing for a few days. Just what the ( Read more... )
