Eat and Get Out and Enjoy Your Community
There is no shortage of events that you can attend at this time of year. It's nice to get out into the community and get treated with the vocals of choirs at local churches and orchestras offering Christmas magic. Plays on the stage, Elf having special showings at the theatre and lights, sparkling whether you drive or walk your neighbourhood, explore another or visit spots like the Upper Canada Village in Morrisburg.

Stoney Point - December 8, 2014 - There is no shortage of events that you can attend at this time of year. It's nice to get out into the community and get treated with the vocals of choirs at local churches and orchestras offering Christmas magic. Plays on the stage, Elf having special showings at the theatre and lights, sparkling whether you drive or walk your neighbourhood, explore another or visit spots like the Upper Canada Village in Morrisburg.

And food, cookie exchanges with friends, co-workers, and neighbours. I'm amazed at how creative people are with food at this time of year. I was just with a group of gals talking about trying to be healthy over the holidays -- moderation and we laughed because it's tough. Again, so many healthy and creative ideas being shared so don't be afraid to try something new. Enjoy gang, one bite at a time.

The most wonderful time of the year!
