« Last post by Roger Kettle on February 02, 2025, 10:41:16 AM »Many years ago, I wrote a cartoon about the moment Robinson Crusoe discovered he was not alone on his island. "I will name you after the day I found you---greetings, Pancake Tuesday!"
Believe it or not, I got paid for that.

To be fair most people don't celebrate these minor holidays here much either.
Groundhog Day is easy, stand a sausage up in a mound of mash and give them a mustard face to enjoy eating while you watch Bill Murry's Groundhog Day.
It is possible I have spent a few decades too many isolated in the bush.

I'm not sure we celebrate many of the "Days" you mention but I hope you enjoy them all. Please post the results of your ice fishing exploits!

Outpourings / Happy Lunar New Year
« Last post by Diane CBPFC on January 29, 2025, 11:09:36 PM »Inspired by the Larson cartoon "God makes snakes" - "Boy, these things are a cinch" as god rolls out snakes from clay.
Happy Year of the Snake everyone.
I love this mad dash of mid-winter holidays: Robbie Burns, LNY, Groundhog Day, Valentine's, Family Day weekend (ice fishing). I like to have a theme to decorate and cook for, at my age its better than thinking up something myself.

Outpourings / Moose

My hubby scared them off when he took scraps down to the compost, he saw a mother and calf. I just saw the footprints.

« Last post by Roger Kettle on January 06, 2025, 10:10:06 AM »Indeed, Tarqs. Joyous but exhausting! At the age of two and a half, my granddaughter is currently obsessed with sea creatures. She has a book with pictures of them. I glanced at one and asked "Is that a swordfish?" She gave me a withering look and answered "It's a narwhal."
She is already extremely annoying.
