Giving thanks

It was Canadian Thanksgiving yesterday and whilst sitting in my favourite coffee shop, I found myself reflecting on all the things in my life I have to be thankful for.

Wonderful friends and familia

My health

Amazing housemates and a fantastic place to call home

A successful two night run of my show with my beautiful & talented best friend

More opportunities to sing and do what I love in the coming months

Starting a new job tomorrow(!)

I am grateful for all of this and all the little things that make my life pretty stellar. 

I celebrated Thanksgiving with a yummy lunchy of lentil loaf and kale salad

I used a bit more flour in the lentil loaf and omitted the breadcrumbs and it turned out great. Reminded me of Thanksgiving stuffing, which is one of my favourite things. I can't wait to eat leftovers of the kale salad all week; the dressing is divine and kale is always wonderful.

There were also pumpkin tarts...

I had plans to share them with friends (like the lovely Rebecca!) over the course of the week, and tarts are just a little easier to transport than pie.

They turned out really well and were given a definite thumbs up from all who gave them a go.

Very thankful. Very nourished. Very happy.
