it’s the last surge of an indian summer with the humidex hitting 29 celsius this weekend.
gorgeous and glorious! i do pray for one more weekend like this before the cold hits us – at least one more.
we had a wonderful feast at my parents’ place. everything was perfect! that turkey was deep fried and doug and i did an amazing job on the mashed potatoes and bread stuffing. my mom also prepared some honey-glazed yams which were a perfect addition to the rest of the food. plus, the pumpkin pies turned out great, too.
i was so full by the end of our meal and yet it was easy to nibble a little bit more here and there.
yesterday, the good weather continued with even more warmth and sunshine.
we spent the first half of yesterday at highpark – mostly at the off-leash walkway/trail and some of it at the zoo and playground. it was a last minute decision. i literally woke up and had to get everyone ready because i knew the park would fill up fast.
first, a quick stop at alternative grounds to get some organize and fair trade coffee beans (tasts better and is actually cheaper then starbucks). then a brunch at butler’s pantry.
both chaeli and hobbes had a blast!

happy kid - happy day
i spend the rest of the sunday doing what i enjoy most – lazying about and most importantly, getting a very well-deserved, long overdue, afternoon snooze.
