I’m a Fan of…..Seagulls

Posted on April 17, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…except when they go after my food

Seagulls are typically known as ‘scavengers of the beach’ and can be quite a nuisance at take-out restaurants and food trucks that are close to the water. The seagulls that I love are the ones close to home where there are no lunches to steal. Sometimes people like to feed them and they can create quite a scene as they dive for food.

Happy Easter to my Friends in the Orthodox Community

Posted on April 16, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…some colourful Easter goodies from Eataly in Toronto

Before our trip to the ROM a couple of weeks ago we stopped in at Eataly for a bite to eat. The Easter goodies were on display and very tempting but the prices made us think twice. In fact we put the Easter chocolates back when a small bag (about 6 small Easter eggs) weighed in at $12.00. It was feast for the eyes only that day.

Happy Easter to all my Ukrainian friends.

Pull Up a Seat – Week 15

…thanks to Xingfu Mama for hosting Pull Up a Seat https://xingfumama.blog/2023/04/14/pull-up-a-seat-photo-challenge-2023-week-15/

I’ve never seen people actually sit in these chairs but I can imagine on a nice day it would be lovely to look over the lake and the city.

I’m a Fan of …..Waves

I love the waves on Lake Ontario and Georgian Bay where our cottage is. I won’t be going to the cottage for at least another month but the lake by our house never fails to provide some magnificent waves.

Monday Mural – In Yorkville

Posted on April 10, 2023 by Mama Cormier

….viewed from the parking lot behind WAAC

Sometimes the best art is on walls and often in obscure places. Today’s mural was found facing the parking lot between Bloor St. and Prince Arthur Ave. I almost missed it because I wasn’t looking up and to the left. We were headed back to the car and I was focused on the mission to find the car. One of my friends brought my attention.
