Posted on December 26, 2019 by

So we did the Turkey thing at my place for a select group: my Mom, my Aunt, and my girlfriend.  Obviously, I was there too.  I can’t call it the full on Turkey thing because we didn’t have to stuff … Continue reading →

Posted on December 23, 2019 by

Thanksgiving

Posted on October 15, 2019 by

Blogging about Thanksgiving can be a bit hard. I’ve written posts about being thankful.  I’ve written posts about why Canadians celebrate in October rather than November–we want to avoid turkey induced comas two months in a row.  I am sure … Continue reading →

The Easter Incident

Posted on April 21, 2019 by

More Turkey Anyone?

Posted on December 23, 2018 by

Another Saturday, and another Christmas meal. Based on what I have heard, this is the last turkey dinner for this Christmas season.  Worry not, though, there is still a ham and Chinese food planned before the whole thing is wrapped … Continue reading →

Too Early for Turkey?

Posted on December 18, 2018 by

I am sure I have explained this before, but for the benefit of anyone coming to this blog for the first time, I will do my best to be brief. Owing to the fact that my family and the connections … Continue reading →

Why Canadians Celebrate Thanksgiving in October

Posted on October 8, 2018 by

Happy Easter….Let’s Eat.

Posted on March 31, 2018 by

We celebrated Easter a little early this year.  When I say celebrated, I really mean that we ate a meal that looked suspiciously like the meal we eat at Thanksgiving and Christmas.  Other than the religious theme linking these things, … Continue reading →

Perfect Saturday

Posted on April 16, 2017 by

My sister, perhaps jokingly, perhaps not, remarked that my blog about Perfect Moments has seemed to have veered from its initial premise. I am perhaps over articulating her words.  “Your blog hasn’t been about Perfect Moments lately,” is what I … Continue reading →
