ThanksGiving long weekend...
Hello all.
What a week! As some of you may know, here in Canada a very important holiday has just passed, Thanks Giving. To celebrate this people congregate at certain predetermined locations to chow down on copious amounts of food and a certain amount of drink. Never before have I almost been full from the entrées, only to then have ten times as much food presented as the main course… and this is before three cakes and a fruit platter that were for desert.
Having said that it was a great time and I enjoyed spending it at Jenn's home in Mississauga. Funnily enough their closest Family friends names are John and Gracie. Also, as an event of the holidays I finally got to meet 'the Stephanie'. Everyone was in such a festive mood that it reminded me of Christmas back home. Upon leaving, Jenn's mum, Jansi, was very kind and bestowed upon yours truly around 7kilos of leftovers, I have not had to cook since, only defrost and reheat in the microwave, glory days! God bless.
Finally there is one more piece of news I feel it is critical to mention. On the weekend it was 25C, sunny and quite hot, fast-forward to Thursday and I have just seen the first snow fall of the season and as it is quite early I am sure there is much more to come, yay :( Must almost be time to put away the shorts and bring out a new winter coat... Lets make a snowman!
