Last night we had our first barbeque of the season. While adults chatted and sipped beverages, the children played in our backyard snow bank. They took a few breaks to snack…and to sing their bilingual version of “Oh Canada”…which was noted by a friend as maybe being part of a theme.
We didn’t have anything fancy…just hot dogs and hamburgers (But that is what a barbeque is suppose to be….simple and relaxing). Along with the protein, we had potato salad, sliced cucumbers, sweet yellow peppers, and Ontario wine. For dessert ....ice cream sandwiches (vanilla ice cream between Dare Chocolate wafers). All Canadian, and bought at the Northside Sobeys.
It is now the middle of April….though we still have snow, we can see green grass. The first of our local greens, fiddleheads, will soon be available. Have I crossed a hurdle?
