Happy Birthday Canada!

Canada's now 142 Years Old!


These are just some of my favOUrite things I love about Canada!



Kids in the Hall!
Mmmmmmm Maple syrup
The Friendly Giant
Mr Dressup
And yes! And I still call it Homo Milk!!!
I can't wait to teach Maribel "Skinamarinky dinky dink, Skinamarinky doo, I love you!" from Sharon, Lois, and Bram
Do you know what a Robertson screwdriver is?
Normally I would have Canadian Tire money in my kitchen drawers but they don't seem to have a Canadian Tire store here in Florida. Go Figure!

.........................And it's ^ not "zee"!

Lacrosse is Canadian.
Hockey is Canadian.
Basketball is Canadian
“Other Canadian inventions include: the jolly jumper, duct tape, insulin, walkie talkies, roller skates, Superman, air-conditioned vehicles, acrylics, standard time (and daylight saving time), the paint-roller, the radio compass, snowmobiles, jet skis, improved zippers, and the handles on cardboard beer cases, etc.,etc., etc. (there are thousands more!)”

But best of all.....
