How does #CBSA justify charging me $49.99 ($40.04 HST & $9.95 handling fee) for a small gift from UK with a value of £2.50?!! CSBA claims the value of duty for a small, plastic and very cheap tree ornament is $307.98! That’s bloody insane and a rip off!!😡

Woke up to fog and hoarfrost, making our trees look magical.

Have you started or thought about starting a Reverse Advent Box for your local food clinic? Sooner you donate, the better. Allows volunteers time to sort through everything. Gloucester Emergency Food Cupboard estimates 550 families will need assistance.
Please…check expiration dates before donating.

Mia’s frustrated that she can’t catch Pepper. Pepper’s only concern is getting my attention for peanuts.
Ignore the dirty window. It’s hard to keep clean when little noses & paws pressing on the glass.
Mia’s bald streak on her back is a reaction to seasonal allergies. It’s improving. #catsky

Getting a start on the Halloween loot bags. 60 done so far, 100 to go.
Loot bags include glow sticks in hopes that it helps the kids be more visible to Autowa drivers. We had too many accidents this year, involving vehicles as it is. Just trying to do my part to prevent more on Halloween night.

Yesterday, was a beautiful day to volunteer at Just Food Fall Farm Fest. Great to meet some of the other wonderful volunteers, see the number of people come out, talk to local vendors & support local businesses with many purchases. Looking forward to doing it again.

I also have an abundance of veggies from my garden that are too ripe. I made creamy, roasted red pepper & tomato soup, omelette muffins with red pepper, spinach, black olive & feta for my breakfasts. Oh, and baked bread. Can’t have soup without bread. Well, I suppose you could but why would you?

You know it’s autumn when I spend my days in the kitchen.
I went apple picking last week. I have more than a crisper drawer full of apples. So far, made apple oatmeal cookies and roasted apple & butternut squash soup. Comfort food & soup season is upon us! 😋

I struggle making pies & pastries but this is my attempt of making pear, walnut & dried berry galette. A neighbour gifted us pears from his tree, so I made 2 galettes. Don’t let the appearance fool you. It tastes so much better than it looks.

A few strawberries I picked from my garden last week made for a delicious ingredient in a chicken, spinach & feta salad for today’s lunch. I’m honestly surprised I was able to get any before the squirrels & chipmunks stole them. Enjoyed lunch outside with said critters.

Thanks to my garden, I was able to enjoy this veggie wrap. Spinach, carrot, cucumber, tomato, onion and sweet pepper were all harvested this morning for this light & delicious lunch. I’m starting to experience gardening fatigue but the rewards remind me why I do it.

Beautiful day to enjoy the backyard to read a book and observe the critters who visit.

I was worried about my garden when away for almost 2 weeks but it seems I had nothing to worry about. Not the most perfect or prettiest veggie omelette but tasty. Spinach, yellow pepper, onion & tomatoes are all curtesy of the garden.
Man, food tastes so much better when from your own garden.

This morning’s gift from the garden. We will be enjoying two of these at lunch & dinner with the hummus my next door neighbour made.The other I will give to said neighbour.

This will be part of our breakfast, all thanks to our garden. 🍓

Yes. I think we need printed t-shirts saying, “ Proud to be a mean & nasty Canadian”. Maybe have an image of a maple leaf flipping the bird.

Someone’s exhausted after her traumatic annual check up at the vet’s, complete with vaccinations. Healthy but needs to loose 1kg.
