My Husband’s Bright Idea

Posted on April 22, 2021 by Mama Cormier

…thanks to Becky B for hosting BrightSquare https://beckybofwinchester.com/2021/04/22/bright-square-22/

Last Saturday my husband surprised me with another date night. We both got dressed up to enjoy a delicious dinner that a local restaurant partially prepared and delivered to our door. Most of the courses are completely prepared and only need to be heated up or finished in the oven and the pasta is measured but needs to be cooked at home. My husband loves to cook so none of this is a chore for him and he loves to plate food. One of the best parts of this meal is that all the proceeds go to charity and this group of young professionals donates the money to St. Joe’s Health Care Centre.

Not only was this a bright idea but it was also the bright spot or highlight of my week. Here are a bunch of square photos that should make up for the days I’ve missed.

Wacky Bird Wednesday – It’s Hug a Chicken Day

Posted on April 21, 2021 by Mama Cormier

…not really….my husband made it up

For those of you who love chickens you can go ahead and hug your chickens. For the rest of us we can simply hug this chicken virtually. Not sure what inspired Kevin to go with a chicken for Wacky Bird Wednesday.

Monster Monday – Meet Gary

Posted on April 19, 2021 by Mama Cormier

….Gary is quiet, shy and misunderstood

Our granddaughter thought Gary was creepy and nicknamed him Ghostly. At first I had to agree with her but after discussions with the artist I’ve had a change of heart. What are your first impressions?

Water, Water Everywhere ….#72 …The Etobicoke Creek

Posted on April 5, 2021 by Mama Cormier

….thanks to Jez for hosting Water, Water Everywhere https://jezbraithwaite.blog/2021/04/05/the-tall-ship-water-water-everywhere-72/

Our weekly walk took us on a path along the Etobicoke Creek close to our home. The mouth of the creek opens up to Lake Ontario and we started our walk from there. We drove to Marie Curtis Park and headed up along the paved path. We had no idea how far we were going to go but after 2.7 k we were forced to turn around because the path was closed for repairs.
