It’s Thanksgiving Day in Canada and like so many other Canadians, we’re enjoying the beauty of the harvest.
It’s been a beautiful holiday weekend, certainly one to make you remember that inspite of the strange times we find ourselves living in, there is much to be thankful for.
As always, I’m most thankful for my family and friends. I feel blessed to have so many people in my life who put a smile on my face every day.
I’m thankful for this blog as it is a constant source of discovery, fun and opportunity for me.
And even though the Leafs totally sucked on Saturday night, I’m thankful that hockey has begun again. Right, Peabody?!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Ciao!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family Ivonne! Your pumpkin banana tart looks delicious! This is certainly the day to stop and reflect on the many things we are grateful for.
Too bad the Toronto Maple Leafs lost last Saturday night, but the Montreal Canadiens won! I grew up watching the Montreal Canadiens with my father and have been a die hard fan ever since. May both teams have a great season. Let the hockey season begin!

Love your blog - so I really don’t understand how you can link to a recipe that uses canned pumpkin puree. So easy to make the real thing - and so much more tasty.
