Happy Thanksgiving Canada!
Comments (4)Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving with whomever you all enjoy it with. Ours was yesterday, just me & DH & my parents and Grandma. It was very nice. Syreeta, you probably have flour weevils or pantry moths. They are very common. I have heard of putting bay leaves in your flour to ward them off but the best way IMO is just to keep your flour in a hard plastic/glass/metal canister so they can't get in. Good thing you noticed BEFORE you cooked with it! :0...See MoreHappy Thanksgiving from Canada
Comments (5)Thank You ladies for your wishes! I have so much to be thankful for. Both of our sons will be home! I haven't seen our oldest son for 6 months. I'm so excited. Our youngest, is just a couple hours away at Purdue but, it will be so great to have them both under our roof for a few days. After the holiday, our oldest will be heading to Miami (he has been in NJ since he graduated from Purdue in May) with his job, so it's kinda bittersweet, plus it's my first Thanksgiving without my Mother.

Comments (12)Our Thanksgiving is always the second weekend in October. Usually the trees are alive with splendid colour, or past their peak. We had an unseasonably warm September (in the high 20's, low 30's Celcius) so the trees are hanging on to their green leaves. It's just hubby and I for Thanksgiving, and I do the turkey, mashed potatoes with sour cream and cream cheese, turnip puff, dressing usually in the slow cooker. This year I came across a dressing made out of butternut squash, brussels sprouts, an apple, celery, onion, cranberries and walnuts and bread cubes......roasted. It's very good. I like having our big meal on Sunday, and Monday is spend relaxing, although I did make bread and an apple pie yesterday :-) No sports on tv, like the U.S. Thanksgiving. An annual parade in our city, and festivities.......we also celebrate Oktoberfest at this time of year. Many people use this weekend to close up their cottages and have the last hurrah of summer....See MoreHappy Canadian Thanksgiving!
Comments (37)Hosta?! You mean DEER LETTUCE! I love Hosta, there are so many beautiful, tropical-looking ones with enormous blue-green leaves. Alas, I can grow NONE of them here among herds of deer. I can't spend my life spraying as I have 0 time. Two years ago, I supposedly "retired", now I teach 13 classes a week and have over 200 students, which is pretty good for an old man, Also have over some 600 plants (tropicals, subtropicals, cold hardies). Peren, Cycads are relatively easy outside but make terrible indoor plants, I never bring mine into the house..., too big, to heavy, too SHARP, and too prone to mealy bugs under indoor conditions. I have at least 6 of these big Cycas revolutas (Japanese sago "palms", they ain't palms), have had them for decades. They pup, so reproduce asexually, also sexually, but have not had gendered cones yet. Cucuzza seeds are readily available online and they do grow FAST, not sure how long a growing season they require. My friend's fruits are from zone 6A/Pa and they are big enough....See More- 10 years ago
