Friendly Friday – The Colour Pink

Posted on June 6, 2020 by Mama Cormier

….thanks to Amanda and her guest blogger, Vero for hosting Friendly Friday

Pink was not a colour that I wore as a child. As an adult I discovered that a warm pink was very flattering to my skin tone and I started to purchase and wear pink items. Our granddaughter loves pink.

Friendly Friday Photo Challenge – Comfort Food

Posted on May 29, 2020 by Mama Cormier

…thanks to Sandy for hosting this week’s Friendly Friday Photo Challenge

Comfort foods during COVID-19 have caused me to gain at least six pounds. Despite walking an average 13 000 steps a day comfort foods which are high in carbs are my downfall.

My husband, when he’s feeling okay, has found a renewed love of cooking. I don’t complain and I enjoy what he prepares immensely. The best meals are the ones we work on together. Here are some of my favourite comfort foods that we’ve enjoyed over the last 10 weeks.

Raisin Scones

Homemade Bread

Roast Pork and Mashed Cauliflower

Homemade Pizza

Lemon Pasta with Pancetta

Cowboy Cookies

Breakfast made by Kevin (vegetable hash under a fried egg)

52 Week Smartphone Challenge – Week 21 Serenity

Posted on May 29, 2020 by Mama Cormier

….thanks to Khürt for hosting the 52 Week Smartphone Challenge

Serenity definitely comes from being outdoors. I’ve spent a lot of time in the parks in Toronto that border on Lake Ontario. Even though I’ve been working to clear away the trash that has fallen between the rocks I can still take a moment to enjoy the view and take in the peace and quiet along the shoreline. This is one of the last photos I took on my iPhone.
