Sounds like a fun couple of days. I am sure Karen and I would like to take it in but unfortunately I am in the middle of doing two courses and they have me effectively "in jail". Some other time perhaps. Your going to have me thinking Toronto is a nice place. ;)
LOL Greg. Why would I ever want anyone to think Toronto is a nice place? DUHHH!!
Toronto is a GREAT place. Just ask Liz Moras. She's from BC and I have her convinced.
I showed her around a little bit in September and she did some 'touring' on her own. I think she loved it. You should visit. You may agree. :)
Sylvie, Of course I know its a nice place. I have been there many times. Just kidding with you really. I love to "visit" To. ;)
Well, in that case, then, I will have to go check out St. John's (and the rest of Newfoundland and Labrador), so I can say the same thing about your home. :) I'm honestly hoping it will be in the Spring (parental units will dictate that depending on when they visit me).
Sylvie, Think summer. The weather is better then. You'll appreciate that.
Sylvie,
Looks like a good time for all....want to pick up a hot chocolate for me?
Greg, I'll think Summer. :)
Lori, I'll get a mulled cider, a hot chocolate and a couple of apple beignets, just in case. :)
It will be fun for sure ...
Sylvie, A food sampler's delight, I would love this! I'd need to spend the day to sample everything I'd want to taste :)
Carole, you certainly would need at least a few hours. :) There's lots of this type of thing going on in Toronto during the Winter. It's a great way to spend some time strolling around with friends.
Sylvie - You certainly have a knowledge of all things wine .... I sense you have an exceptional appreciation of the finer wines
Kathy, I grew up making it ... with my feet ... in the good old days. :) I love red wine (and once in a while I've been known to drink too much Port). :)
Yesterday I opened a bottle of Gamay Noir, from REIF ESTATE Winery. It was REALLY good.
You can buy this one through OREA... I believe part of the money goes to the REALTORS' CARE Foundation.

Enjoy. :)
Sylvie - Matthew House (in Toronto) says thank you ... we applied for and recieved a grant from The Realtors Care Foundation to help us provide shelter for refugees at the end of the refugee highway.
Kathy, congratulations. That's wonderful. :) It's such a great cause. I can't imagine anyone saying no.
Oh God I'm drooling now!
Liz, you would enjoy this one. If you go early enough, you can get to all the places ... it's a nice easy stroll along the same street; with lots of yummy things to try. All in all, it's a really nice evening.
