This gingerbread house has been sitting in my basement for a month. It was made in early December, and here we are in mind-February. It needed to go, but I couldn’t bring myself to just throw it away. I worked really hard on it! So, I decided to give it an honourable departure with a…
DIY KFC Gravy Candle

Free Fall Eight Stories at Winsport!
Some family came in from out of town, and wanted to check out the SkyLuge run at Winsport/Canada Olympic Park (which is a great fun BTW), but it reminded me that another attraction was due to open that weekend – the Free Fall!
