I have a secret

I have a secret, it was in fact a secret goal....

I wanted to reach 1000 posts by the end of 2016....and well that did not happen!

It should happen by early February and there will be a giveaway.

I have no idea what I will give away....



On the way home last week, I saw this frame on the sidewalk....

 It appears to be an Amerindian print.

I found it quite lovely.

 I nearly brought it home but we have a lot frames, more than walls actually

I made some homemade perogies stuffed with cheese, potatoes

and caramelized onions

SOOOOOOOO GOOD! Really time consuming but

definitely worth it

Do you remember last years's post about my Dad and lemons?

He would've been over the moon because they were 3 for a dollar!

My Dad lived for cheap lemons!

See you soon!

Lemons....

When we vacationned in Maine with my Dad he complained about the price of lemons.

They were $1.29 a piece. He flipped out.

OMG the lemons are soooo expensive here, next time we come we will bring lemons from Montreal!

Right Dad! Like we would be able to smuggle a bunch of lemons at customs.....He just spent thousands of dollars for a week by the shore, car rental and meals...Yet those lemons were bugging him.

In the past months Dad stopped buying lemons because he felt they were too expensive...He was buying limes instead!

Today I was grocery shopping in my secret thrifty no frills grocery shop....and I saw this:

Lemons .39 cents each

Just for you Dad, just for you!

This will always crack me up!

Refreshing

This morning it is raining and barely 12C or 54F. It is cold!

Last Saturday we got temperatures of 36C or 97F! We were melting and we had lots to do in the yard; still do but more on that later...

We had to have continuous hydration to keep up, so I came up with this

A nice Pyrex carafe with sliced lemons and crushed fresh mint.

Delicious! It totally hit he spot

and was a nice change because plain water is delicious but...

a bit bland!

We are waiting for a big wood delivery....

more on that later!
