The Burlington Studio Tour is happening again this weekend, https://artinaction.ca/. A yearly event that I’ve been participating in for 9 years now! I’m looking forward to seeing all the people who come to visit during the weekend every year, as well as those who are new to the tour. It’s always a fun weekend!
Something new, few of my paintings, including ‘Popeye’s Passion’, will be for sale at Fairhome Interiors Pop-up Shop, https://www.fairhome.ca/, during the month of November. The selection will change as paintings are sold.
Finally, I will be participating in the Work in Progress Show, at The Cotton Factory on November 17, 2-4 pm, (one day only event), https://www.wipartexhibit.ca/, my third year in this event. I love the venue, such an interesting building!
So I’m going to be eating my spinach, getting my flu shot, (done), and trying to stay healthy as I look forward to all of these events. Looking forward to seeing you there :)

In my vegetable garden this year I planted lettuce, green beans, peppers, jalapeƱos, basil, kale and zucchini. Some of these have done better than others. I discovered one of my dogs likes kale. She ate two out of the four kale plants, so I dug up the other two and put them in a pot...on a table. After a rough start the zucchini took off. Once I started to harvest a few of the zucchini, my dog decided to check it out and started to eat the zucchini! I had to watch her every time she went outside. Unfortunately, one day my dog and I went to check on the zucchini and it was decimated, probably by the gopher that lives under the shed. I think my husband was doing a happy dance in his head when I told him that the zucchini was gone.

It doesn't matter where you live anymore, whether something is in season or not, most items are grown somewhere in the world and available at your local grocery store all year long. I love when something is grown locally and in season, not only for the cost savings but for the freshness and taste, not to mention the smaller carbon footprint. It makes me wonder what would actually be available at the grocery store in the dead of winter if we just relied on our local farms.

I love this old vinyl and chrome chair. Certainly a remnant of another day and world. The chicken however, is making a come back. Some cities are even allowing people to have a few hens in their backyard. I would love to have a few chickens, except that it would make planning a holiday a lot more work than it already is, especially since I have two dogs to care for as well.
