Our beautiful country is celebrating its 143th birthday today. I am so proud to be Canadian, not to mention very lucky. 🙂

It is also a statutory holiday so much organizations & businesses are closed.  Including mine.   We actually decided to close down shop tomorrow as well, gotta love a 4 day weekend!

I was feeling a little patriotic this morning while I prepped breakkie.

A certain kitty cat also showed her Canadian pride! 😉

First things first, coffee.  Felt like a french press kinda morning.

A ginormous egg sammie.  Made on a toasted ciabatta bun with fresh mozza slices, baby spinach, an egg, 1.5 slices of turkey bacon & tomato slices.  I’m FULL!

Handful of blackberries.  These guys were on their last legs.

Was the perfect way to fuel up for a day of cleaning.  Yup, hubby dreads hearing that phrase.  But it needs to be done and not just regular cleaning but the stuff that requires elbow grease – stove, oven, fridge, floors. 😉

Oh and just for fun, here’s a look at the SparkPeople Blackberry App that I was talking about.  It’s really great and free

O Canada – looking back 20 years
