My turkey soup always tasted a little bland. Someone suggested adding leftover gravy from the turkey dinner. Game Changer! Will be doing this from now on.

Saturday. Apparently today is Saturday, if like me you are wondering.

Spent 2 hours clearing snow from yesterday's storm and now enjoying a couple of Christmas gifts before tomorrow's storm hits. I did ask Santa for a Bichette and Tucker signing, perhaps that's still in the sleigh and will be delivered in the next few days. #BlueJays #baseball ⚾️

A Merry Christmas to all who celebrate.

I was thinking to myself, "I can't believe it's December," but if I reflect a little and I'm honest with myself, I still can't believe it's the 2000s.

This is funny for all #bluejays fans! Donate!

⚾️Good morning to everyone except the New York Yankees. I want it all and for the Blue Jays to win the World Series but knocking out the Yankees makes this a successful season. Let's Go Blue Jays!

Rest easy #BlueJays fans, our beloved broadcasting crew of Dan Shulman and Buck Martinez will call all the playoff games. Hazel Mae will be there too!

Good luck to the Toronto Blue Jays this afternoon.

i grew 53 pounds of potatoes in last year's leaf litter that i raked up from the yard. no fertilizer, barely watered them. organic gardening works 🌱

🌱 Time to turn the compost today. I'm always amazed at the different kinds of fungi that I often find there. Not sure of it's name, please let me if you know.

If you live in Newfoundland and Labrador and you haven't downloaded the Scheerr Weather app, it is worth it. It's been very helpful in keeping us updated about the wildfires and gov't instructions. Great job @eddiesheerr.bsky.social Thanks.

Hey #skycards

The Newfoundland and Labrador government is set to hold a surprise wildfire update at 7:15 p.m. on Monday evening, shortly after issuing an evacuation order for the Paddy's Pond industrial area. #nlpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I guess it's going to be one of those days 🔥 #nlwx

RCMP say the Trans-Canada Highway is currently closed between the cloverleaf (Pitts Memorial Drive/Outer Ring Road) and Exit 39 (Foxtrap Access Road), as emergency crews respond to a wildfire near Paddy’s Pond.

sometimes reading about it is the next best thing to being there, so with that in mind here are some of our favorite books that involve The Woods in one form or another for our fellow nova scotians

Excited for this. I hand pollinated the watermelon 🍉 around 3 weeks ago and it looks like it took. This is the first time I've had success with watermelon

🌱Wild blueberries and raspberries from my backyard. It's not the biggest harvest nor the largest berries, but probably the best I've ever tasted. The birds seem to think so too; the robins and juncos have been filling up on them the past few days.

I have been asked to include alt text, which I should have been doing from the start. As I can't edit here are the same four photos with ALT's included.

Real sweet 9th inning. Bet the Yankees forums will be spicy tonight

A highlight of the summer is watching my 6 year old niece and her Unicorns United teammates play their first match against an out of town team. There was various levels of ball skills, but all encouraged each other and displayed tremendous enthusiasm for the beautiful game.

🌱About 10 ys ago I planted 12 yellow and 12 red tulips. Dig up and divide every couple ys. They have grown remarkably. Noticed some new yellow ones have red stripes. Guessing x pollination. This yr a red tulip with one petal that is half yellow. Thinking genetic mutation. @toddboland.bsky.social

Remember the bags of leaves from the fall? Here's what it looks like after I've run the mulching mower over them and let them sit for the winter. Perfect for seed starting , amending our poor soil or as mulch. Oh and the earth worms absolutely love it!🌱

VOTED! In Foxtrap, NL, you can stop in to vote AND have a feed of fish n' brewis (that's salt fish, soaked hard bread, onion and fat back fried pork or "scrunchions" for you mainland crowd") #nlpoli

Voted at the advance poll in Gander. Surprised to see such a good turn out of early voters. Official said there was a line-up waiting when the doors opened at 9:00 am.

Advance voting in the Canadian federal election starts tomorrow and continues until Monday. #cdnpoli Find out YOUR voting location here: elections.ca/home.aspx

🌱I'm jealous of the tulip and daffodil pics I'm seeing in the gardening feed. Too early for that here in Canadian zone 4 where the ground is still frozen below the top few inches. Though the crocus poking up in the lawn do bring hope and joy.

The Carney campaign is heading to Gander, Newfoundland tomorrow. It was an airbase used by Canadian and US militaries during WWII and afterward, and was famously the site where many passenger jets diverted on 9/11. So you can guess the campaign theme tomorrow.

🌱It wasn't a hard winter here, but it's always good to see signs of spring in Canada zone 4

Once spent a Paddy's Day evening at Bridie Molloy's and it sounded remarkedly like this.
