They're back!

When you feel you can't deal with the cold, snow,wind and ice. When you're getting more and more depressed. When you feel the only thing that will cure your winter blues is another pizza slice orbowl of caramel corn, just then when you're about to loose it, they come back...

The canada geese!!! All loud and noisy, they truly are the harbingers of spring!
I saw a couple of flights of geese yesterday going to the church basement. They brought me such joy!

I feel this winter has been very,very long, not that cold at least in southern Quebec but very long....At least to me! Maybe it's the 'I don't work thing'...Don't know!

Tonite to celebrate the arrival of spring I'm gonna try to fire up the old BBQ...and make us some good juicy meaty hamburgers....served with fried mushrooms, dijon mustard and cream cheese...OMG! BBQ heaven....Of course the buns will be toasted ( I need my buns toasted...in a food sense! Now get your minds out of the gutter people!!! LOL)

How is it that most burgers i see in triple D (diners,drive-in and dives) don't have the toasted buns? Guy if you read this please leave a comment. I'm a big fan of yours and I just have to know.....

Bbqcuing (is that a word?) represents freedom and no responsabilities.....It means I just have to throw some meat on it and presto changeo SUPPER!!! And add to that a couple of tomato wedges and cuke slices and you have a salad....good times!

Until then, have a nice night and euh... Welcome back to the geese!!!

Blogs I love


Just sharing a picture of Boubou in between naps (too much catnip!).

The first blog I discovered in 2007 was Solid Cherry a catalog of thrifted items (All the links are in my blog list) and I fell in love with the idea of taking pictures of found treasures and posting them in the Internet. How cool is that? I think I read that blog in it's entirety 2 or 3 times....I did hate my job at that time lol !

Then I found Thriftaholic a tale of two addicts (I love the title! Wish I had thought of it first...) I definitely would like to go thrifting with those girls. The only problem is that they haven't posted anything in ages.

If you're looking for an amazing recipe blog I suggest The Flowering Dogwood. If you like sugar, please do yourself a favor and try the caramel popcorn recipe! It is easy and soooooo good, you will want to do it again and again....

Springmont Cottage just fills me with joy. It is filled with everyday things that make me feel warm and fuzzy (thrifting included!)

Living The Local Life is all about life in New Hampshire with 2 kids and buying and living local. Great tips on going local and great recipes!When I found that blog I was looking for some low calorie options...and I thought Living Local meant Living Low Calorie lol how crazy is that????

If you want to see amazing necklaces (and more) visit The Misadventures of Mub and if you want to see a tireless crafter check out Lolie Craft.

2 of the blogs I follow give me food for thought (litterally) On Bradstreet and These Days in French Life. Go visit don't wait they will probably change your outlook on life.

I love all the blogs in my list otherwise I would delete them! But time is short and even if i didn't write about your blog doesn't mean it's not appreciated :)

I hope I have given you some suggestions for some blog tourism. Let's expand our horizons....
