…let’s see what interesting photos pop up in my photo gallery with the number 192
My daughter-in-law is wearing the number 1927. The computer picks up everything. Thanks Judy for hosting The Numbers Game https://judydykstrabrown.com/2025/05/05/the-numbers-game-71-may-5-2025-come-play-along/

…special bread and extra vendors
This week we brought out a recipe for bread that we haven’t made in several years….Timbit Paske. We slightly altered our fruit bread and added four Timbits when we shaped the dough.
There certainly was a lot of interest in this bread and it was mostly sold when I left the market an hour after the market opened.
Along with the regular vendors we had a few new merchants with special treats for Easter.
…this beautiful cardinal brought me great joy

Are we musical? Well we certainly love music and over the years my whole family has taken up learning to play an instrument or two.
I started singing in choirs in elementary school and as an adult I sang regularly in a German choir for 27 years and as a guest chorister in a church choir for special services. I learned to play the recorder as a child and taught my own students the melodic joys of this humble instrument. I dabble with the ukulele and have attempted to play the piano.
Two of my children learned to play the piano and they all took up instruments in school. Their choices were the cello and saxophone. Their father and my husband of almost 50 years is an avid collector and player of guitars and other stringed instruments.
Now our grandchildren are starting to show an interest in music. The cycle continues.
…today’s number is 188 https://judydykstrabrown.com/2025/04/07/the-numbers-game-67-apr-7-2025-come-play-along/

…a little opera and lots of paintings
On Thursday I made my way downtown to listen to a wonderful opera singer, Midori Marsh.
Midori was the winner of the Women’s Musical Club of Toronto 2024 Career Development Award.
After the concert I walked over to the Royal Museum of Ontario but didn’t get beyond the gift shop because you can no longer access the museum via the store. I’m hoping this is temporary.
I could have entered from the main entrance but I wanted to check out the show at WAAC which is a block north of the ROM.
When I arrived at Women’s Art I was greeted by this sandwich board.
The show is wonderful with very large and varied pieces. One year I’ll attempt a large piece so that I can participate in this show.

Today Kevin and I attended the Lambton Kingsway Annual Art Show. Kevin learned that one of the artists that he follows was exhibiting here so he wanted to meet her.
