Fallen Leaves

More from our walk last Sunday...

Not too sure if I like the first one or second one better... Is the second one too yellow? Used one of Mommaziggy's awesome actions!! ;)






Nothing better than a romantic walk in the park!!

Half and Half Weekend

I love Fall. I do. But I hate when it rains all day. Though it gives me some time to cook and bake... So that's what we did!

Saturday was yucky - it rained all day. Decided to try to make some fresh dough and make some pizza! I "stole" my dad's bread machine a couple of weekends ago (merci papa et Monique) and have been using it a lot!! Made some whole wheat dough and baked a veggie pizza with some turkey pepperoni that was quite tasty!!



Today was a perfect Fall day. Perfect to go for a long walk on the Mount Royal. So that's what we did!! :)

Have a great Sunday!

Let's Play Some Football!!!!!!

Ben got some free tickets to go see some Canadian Football League game last Sunday. The Alouettes of Montreal were playing the Hamilton Tiger Cats. The Als won the game 41-38. First time seeing football live and I loved it!!!

The stadium was full - and the crowd was very loud!!!
Very serious discussion here with the mascot of the Alouettes! ;)




Everytime there is a touchdown from the Alouettes. Two guy run across the field with big flags!!

Can't wait to go back!! :)

Fall Colors

Caught a short glimpse of the colors last weekend a couple of minutes away from home. Hoping that there are some leaves left this weekend to take some more shots!

Feeling better... thanks!

Thanks for all your good wishes. Today was a better day! And not because of the weather because it's cold and dark and raining too!!

These are some delicious squares I made last weekend - they were delicious and so easy!!

Just because...

I had a rough day (damn anxiety!) - here's a post that makes me feel good!!

My sweet cat (that drives me up the wall sometimes, but still love!)



My neighbourhood in the Fall - I just love walking near the water with the beautiful colourful trees!

Quebec City Halloween Decorations

It was a pleasure seeing all the Halloween decorations everywhere!! I think my faves are the pumpkins with jewellery (they were in front of a jewellery shop of course!)







Tried some texture on this one
