My first Thanksgiving in Canada in 5 years. Â The holiday may have passed, click but my heart remains thankful for:
My parents, brothers and sister-in-law. Â Aunty Susanna, Lisa and Michael.
Friends nearby (BC, Markham, Mississauga,Milton, downtown) and in far-flung corners of the globe (Ethiopia, NZ, US, Thailand…)
New family at Rexdale Alliance Church. Â Wow, it’s been an answer to prayer.
Lisa showcasing her egg-white based coffee and orange loaf. Ahh...the product of working in product development at Loblaws.
Aunty Kie slicing up the beef. 4 kgs of it. I set aside my incredulity at excessive North American meat consumption and ate 2 slices smothered in gravy.
Apple galette a la Chez Panisse by way of epicurious.com. The first pastry dessert I've made in YEARS. And it was scrumptious.
Michael, my dad, Uncle Wilkin, Uncle Don. This is what "candid" looks like with them.
Pretty purple flowers at Erindale Park
Lovely Lisa eating the tree
We walked around in the cemetery of St Peter's Church and I saw this lovely tree.
