Trios From the Veg Box

Posted on January 26, 2024 by Mama Cormier

….every Thursday we get a delivery of less than perfect fruits and vegetables

We are big fans of supporting the Ugly Veg movement. All the produce that we have delivered is very good quality but might be oversized, very small or slightly misshaped. Often these less than perfect bits of food end up in landfill. How sad is that!

If you have any trios to share for Thursday Trios. I’d love to see them. Just copy my link and paste it into your post. I’ll get a pingback and will be sure to check it out and leave a comment. Have fun.

Home is where the heart is and my home and heart have lived at the same address for over 44 years. My favourite part of my home is my backyard where we’ve entertained over the years with family gatherings, memorials and milestone birthdays.

I’m a Fan of …..Swans

Posted on January 26, 2022 by Mama Cormier

….thanks to Jez for hosting the I’m a fan of….challenge, this week he chose swanshttps://jezbraithwaite.blog/2022/01/24/swans-1-fan-of-142/

I am a fan of swans and have lots of photos of them in the archives but I decided to go for a walk late this afternoon to see if I could find some close to home. I walked east of the house and stayed close to the edge of the parks looking for these beautiful birds. I one area where I usually see up to a dozen or more was inaccessible because the ramp to the lake was piled high with snow from the ploughs.

I continued further east and finally came across a flock of them about a kilometre or more from the house. Here are my swans in winter on the shores of Lake Ontario in Toronto.
