SANTA ARRIVES... PUT IT ON MY TAB!

Like a new home reno reality show, Backsplash Rescue had it's finale this week. Soaking the tiles with an obscure and expen$ive liquid, plus tonnes of hard brushing, finally and gratefully allowed the homeowners to breath a sigh of relief. As if to celebrate, one of the workers climbed up on the counter and repaired some drywall!

Meantime downtown, Toronto joined in all the parades  this time of year. Upside down clowns, an octopus on drums, Mother Goose, and the jolly old guy in the red suit all brought smiles to the crowds. Back in the northern garden, the weather held up for spreading leaves to put the plants in hibernation. Next day, BAM! the snow fell and ended gardening and driving up the hill til the spring.












This morning there is already 6 inches of snow and more to come. The cardinals, goldfinches, and squirrels all dig down for sunflower seeds. The big indoor news is the Samsung Galaxy 7" tablet to be used for our upcoming winter travels. Lighter and faster than our trusty but old netbook, it will be our connection on the road. There's a steep learning curve in the next month, but for this blog to continue, I'll have to ---- put it on my Tab!
