Happy Thanksgiving!

I always say I will update my blog more than once and week and as ususal I will start off by saying I'm sorry for not updating as much. Classic! I should make it a New Years resolution to stay on the grind and update my blog more often. I take enough pictures and weird things always happen to me so it is not like I have a shortage of materials.
So in Canada it is holdiay time! This Monday is Thanksgiving which means :



Oops forgot the turkey!  Better fix that :






And in case your wondering - I don't eat off a plastic pie plate normally (ha!) This was a to-go meal for my friend who is alone this weekend. This is what Thanksgiving is about my friends - food, family and friends!

And for unknown reasons I will leave you with this pic :

I will send 5 postcards to anyone that can tell me where this pic is taken. (Hint: Jerry Seinfeld came here!)


Have a good holiday to anyone in Canada reading this and for everyone esle enjoy your weekend.

Outrage!

I thought people could see the beauty in the world. I guess not! This was sent as a postcard to a receiver on postcrossing:


What would your reaction be? Would you think it was beautiful? Would you think it was a nice gesture? Would you be impressed that it made it through the mail intact?  Can you guess what the response was?

The official response was :

"I'm very disappointed and shall I say angry. This is not a postcard and this goes against the intent of postcrossing. Blah blah blah.... Why would you send this to someone? How could you treat me like this? "  *

*condensed version

I cannot believe that a fellow postcrosser or actually anyone that receives mail would be offended by this! I get that it does not fit the definition of a standard store bought postcard but still - why all the hate? I'm still stunned.
