Hi there! Weekends are good in Toronto. As hard as it's been to find a flow during the week, we've settled into a nice weekend routine here!
It's nothing revolutionary, but it's good.
Here's what we did this weekend:
Friday night we stayed home, made a nice dinner together (chili in a slow-cooker) and watched Black Swan. [Sorry Louise, I forgot to take a photo of the yummy chili!]
Saturday night we were invited to a Halloween party! Boyd is not one who usually likes to dress up for Halloween (I don't think he's dressed up the past 5 years) but since we're new here I didn't think we could turn down a party with new friends.

Our Sunday morning tradition has been to go to a nearby cafe for brunch. Yum! We tried out a new place today:
The Starving Artist, which specializes in waffles! I had a "western" omelet in a mini waffle sandwich and Boyd got Eggs Benedict on potato waffles. Of course, it was so good that I forgot to take photos until I was all done! Instead, here is the last sip of my coffee:
After brunch we went on the weekly grocery trip.

Next came Hazel's least favorite part of the weekend - cleaning and vacuuming time!

| Quick! The sweater drawer is the only place safe from the vacuum monster! |
Now, I'm relaxing in the living room, watching the rain fall. We're having one of Boyd's colleagues over for dinner, so soon I'll be making a
Mushroom Pie - the perfect thing to serve this chilly fall day.

Hope you're all having a fun weekend!
