First off, Happy to my fellow Canadians. To me the country I love is all about Diversity. I love that my country has people of many cultures, religions, and lifestyles, a Vertical Mosaic as I learned many years ago in Sociology class, and this is something that I reflect upon every July 1.
We have had a low key day today. We did a few errands and had a quiet barbecue at home. Often I attend our local Canada Day Celebrations, however this year I enjoyed staying closer to home and spending time with my husband.
Remember the attempt at growing veggies I showed you a few posts back? Well, so far so good:
With sunny warm temps in the forecast for the next little while, I'm cautiously optimisitc we will be enjoying fresh veggies in a few weeks. Fingers crossed......
Happy Canada Day!!
We're heading down later for the fireworks show, if we don't fall asleep first after walking in the parade this afternoon.
Your veggies look great!

Yeah for fresh veggies. We sat around with Evan's family today and I knit. It was perfect.

Canada Day was gardening for me, and I don't even like gardening! :) I did enjoy this new YouTube video though, called Canadian, Please and filmed right here in London.
