I especially enjoyed all that you wrote. I have always enjoyed my visits to Quebec although it has been many years since I have gone there. Montreal is a fascinating city. How fortunate you are to be bilingual! It's always fun when I go home to see labels on products in French as well as English. That's happening in the US too, although the labeling is in English and Spanish. I'm so sorry that you can't always find your favorite products. It's so frustrating when you can no longer get what you want! I still bemoan the withdrawal of Revlon's perfume Moondrops which was always my favorite. I'm sure that I will get back to you before Christmas. I hope you have a lovely run-up to the Christmas festivities next weekend. I did see a lovely concert here. The choirs from Mojave High School came to the clubhouse here and put on a wonderful concert. I so love high school teachers and their students! Well, I've got to run. I'm going to a country and western dance at the clubhouse.

I found out the hard way when I made a peanut butter-banana smoothie. I wonder if you could order your specific brand on amazon? Have you tried almond butter? Walmart has a decent one. My husband had a very kind realtor at his office, she was from Canada and also spoke French beautifully. When I meet someone from Canada they usually seem to be very polite and mannerly and I appreciate that so much.<br /><br />The videos I were able to see are wonderful. We have low bandwidth in busy seasons here. The White Christmas video was so uplifting and it reminded me of pages from a Reminisce magazine! The saving 60 people, that is very touching. So especially touching that the middle-aged man was able to have such a beautiful gift of life. <br /><br />Those quotes are so good, I like the one on loneliness, I think some people don't like living with themselves so they constantly need a person with them. The one on doing things for the right reason is good too, I once met a person who only wanted to go to the nursing home to visit so he could get his points for ministry. : O The one on cheating with a book is great, that made me smile! There is something very relaxing about a good ol' book! : ) You really have some good stuff Linda!<br /><br />I also enjoyed the Christmas video on your last blog as well with all of the old scenes from Wonderful Life. So delightful! <br /><br />You have a great evening there Linda! Blessings to you! You have such a great, and such a pleasant blog that many look forward to! A Blessing! : )Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09093408888499365118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19531357.post-83805262860418051302016-12-17T15:17:59.897-05:002016-12-17T15:17:59.897-05:00Hi Linda,

I wonder what the chemical composition is in Kraft vs. Jif... We've spent a lot of time in Canada but haven't done any real grocery shopping. We just assumed that everything had the dual language labels.<br /><br />We've visited 7 Canadian provinces over the years but we've never explored Quebec. The last time I was in Montreal was to visit my stepfather's family in Montreal...I was about 10 years old!<br /><br />Loved the manta ray video. It's amazing just how many animals have decided to trust people to free them from some life threatening encumbrance! Love those Dale Carnegie Hero Awards. It is amazing just how much positive energy was created by that old Scottish billionaire!<br /><br />As for a white christmas...love the song but you can have the snow! I've lived in Michigan, Chicago, St. Louis and Boston and I experienced more than enough snow to last a lifetime! Snow is a relatively rare occurrence here in the Tennessee River Valley in Eastern Tennessee. The best news is that most snow melts within a day or so...

We also visit Europe from time to time because it is relatively inexpensive for us. We will make it to Canada one of these days and after reading all about Quebec you can be sure we will include it in our tour. We both love travelling (not the flying!) but the new experiences and learning about different cultures.<br />I guess you are allergic to one of the additives in Kraft peanut butter – it would be good if you could track down which one, then you could be sure to avoid anything with it in. One of my neighbours suffers with really bad asthma attacks and noticed it happened each time she ate a certain cherry cake – she checked all the additives and found it contained sulfites and now knows that she has a sulfa allergy. Avoiding anything that contains sulfites has reduced her asthma attacks by half. Goodness knows why food manufacturers put these things in our food, but they do!<br />I’m going to watch your videos now, thanks for sharing them. <br />Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05962552429792516213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19531357.post-65440900798947429222016-12-17T10:44:53.675-05:002016-12-17T10:44:53.675-05:00I definitely want to come to Canada someday :) may...I definitely want to come to Canada someday :) maybe even to live!!Optimistic Existentialisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11507986337866049924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19531357.post-81064128812821162822016-12-17T10:40:34.854-05:002016-12-17T10:40:34.854-05:00Quebec is a beautiful place to visit - I especiall...Quebec is a beautiful place to visit - I especially loved Montreal.
