Canada, Crab, and a beautiful creek

A lovely Canada Day long weekend... (and a picture heavy blog post)
it started off with a "tiny things picnic"
That's when you cut everything up really tiny and mix it all together- it works best with salads


Tiny things salad on my Ragaddy Anne blanket



Next, off to Bragg Creek for some walking in the sun, and some shopping at the local shops



Emma took note and drew all of the things we saw on our journey






I bought a dreamcatcher


Coffee for the drive home




Mike heated up large stones for our hot rocks bbq







Banana boats...

It tastes a lot better than it looks!


 The next day was a long day of cooking with long time friends
This is onions, bay leaves, and a mix of "3 spice" to start off the crab curry


 Dad, starting off the festivities



The sad passing of a crab



I stewed berries to add to my Twist & Sparkle water

Curry, ready to eat- it has to be eaten outside- for the sake of the floors inside


Vicki, chowing down


Best thing ever- it was our 5th annual Crab Curry Night!



Dessert...Rotisserie pineapple


Earl with a peanut butter jar


Sunday
Mike went fishing- His favorite pass time


I made a stationary wedding gift for the second wedding of the summer


And then I made popsicles



A nice weekend, filled with friends and food- the best combination!
