Thanks for GREAT weekend friends!! Until next time......

Dragon Beard Candy

Dragon's Beard candy is a sweet treat that we were introduced to when we visited Chinatown last summer. It's a little like handmade cotton candy with a peanut mixture wrapped in the centre. It sounds a little unusual to describe but oh is it yummy!



I think that it will be easy for you to see from these pics, where the candy gets it's name. If you have the opportunity to try this sweet treat I'd recommend you do it!













A couple of other fun pics from our visit to Chinatown.

Great Friends!

It was such a treat to spend the weekend with wonderful friends! As we celebrate the birthday of Queen Victoria today (which I don't really understand as it's May 24th and that's next weekend but today is the holiday?) we enjoyed a fun-filled weekend together in Montreal. Here are some pics of specdial friends.

Doris and Dan who celebrated their 6th wedding anniversary yesterday. Happy Anniversary friends!! (We didn't realize it was their anniversary until we arrived so we quickly improvised with a card and gift. What did we do? We found a card Doris had around the house and adapted it for our use and then presented it to them with a package of gum....their gum and, with a piece missing! :o) Creativitiy at it's best thanks to K1.

Happy Anniversary Doris and Dan!

K1 and K2 enjoying fresh, hot bagels that were removed from a wood burning oven only moments before we purchased them. Yumm!!!

Michelle and Mark sneaking a smooch in front of the fountain. Sweet!

Montreal Bloggy Bash Reunion Tour!!

It's that time again!! K1, K2 and I headed out after work yesterday and hit the road. Michelle and Mark were ahead of us and all were waiting when we arrived at Doris and Dan's for a wonderful weekend of fun!! What do 4 bloggers do when they get together? Well, blog of course!!

As you can see, Mark was not too impressed with our activities. He kept teasing us asking who we were blogging and emailing since we were all together. Who were we emailing? One another of course! LOL!

Breakfast this morning we started the day off with a relaxing, late breakfast. It's a quiet day with friends and more coming over tonight. Looking forward to seeing those we met here last year: Julie and Stephan with Francis and meeting the adorable Naomi; Elisa and Jarrod, Thomas and meeting cutie pie Zoe! There are others coming over too which will be lots of fun!

More to come....
