Living at latitude 53 in #Edmonton we wait a little bit longer for #springtime blossoms but boy is the wait worth it. My neighbourhood is like a Type A competition to see who can out bloom the other and the smells are divine.

#TeamCarney I just received my invitation to attend a rally for @mark-carney.bsky.social on Sunday afternoon. I’m so pleased he is wrapping up his campaign where he started: in #Edmonton ❤️🇨🇦

I did my part in helping to keep this decibel level up near 111 at tonight’s #EdmontonOilers game. What a treat to be at @rogersplace.bsky.social thanks to a very generous, dear friend. #PlayLaBambaBaby ! ❤️🇨🇦 🏒

I just did a most Canadian thing. Exercising my right to vote is something I value even more dearly in these turbulent times. A pencil & a paper ballot. Simple tools for a great privilege #TeamCarney🇨🇦

A Blessed #Easter to all who celebrate and for those who may need a visual timeline cleanse. Here are some photos from Hosanna Lutheran Church in Edmonton. The cross is adorned with fresh flowers brought by parishioners.

Just baked a batch of brownies for tomorrow’s #Easter treats and I bejewelled them with some mini Easter eggs. Proud to say I did not eat one (yet)…

Thank you scientists & researchers. Just got my 2nd Shingrix dose & fingers crossed, I will have little or no side effects (the first dose was a doozy). Because I was such a good girl I bought myself a cookie. #BecauseScience

Today in #Edmonton it is a tropical +4C(39F)😎 so I went on one of my favourite walks in the McKinnon Ravine. I came across a new information sign. For all of us resistors against wrongheaded decisions, this short history of pushback against a proposed freeway, gave me hope. #DemocracyMatters

Today was a very good day to wear my #TeamCanada mittens from the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics. I remember when Sidney Crosby scored the Golden Goal. And now the Golden Goal from #ConnorMcDavid  will be a new favourite moment. #4NationsFaceOff ❤️🇨🇦

Happy #FlagDay Canada! Fun fact about my flag: In 2011 I requested a flag that had flown on Parliament Hill in our nation’s capital, Ottawa. 12 years later it arrived. The wait was worth it for this beauty. And she’s younger than me! 🇨🇦

Ahh, #Canada. My mini midweek getaway. An hour SW of Edmonton at Village Creek Country Inn. Solitude, great trails to hike, good food and as far away from the 🍊 🤡 as I can get. ❤️🇨🇦

Living at latitude 53° some of my friends from (much) warmer climes, ask me how I deal with our long winters. My Rx is dress for the weather, go outside as often as possible and appreciate the gorgeous blue sky. Lots of folks on the trails today seem to agree! #Edmonton #Canada #Winter

I don’t consider myself an arts & craft gal but was inspired by a post I saw on fruit platters. I decided to “zhuzh”up this fruit tray. I used the top of an upside down pineapple crown & decorated the crown with mini marshmallows & cranberries.Certain my family will ask “Who are you?” #DIY
