    Cream cheese and rasperries are very healthy - and you have to have something to put under them. Brownies are just a foundation for all that healthy stuff.

    Hrf:  My  trusty Apple is in the den on the main floor. 

    To all our guests -- cooler weather is coming in and possible rain Saturday night and Sunday morning.  Suggestion -- pack an umbrella! 

    lassie -- chocolate is my favourite "foundation"!

    Weather:

     http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/city/pages/on-125_metric_e.html

    Looks like it will be raining for sure. But nobody knows, the forecast here changes every hour. 

    I'd like to say this again: anyone who needs a ride from the northern or western GTA is welcome.

    E, how big is it?  Do you need an extra bag?  I was going to just pack in a canvas tote or backpack, but I can bring my rollaboard to put it in if you need it.

    Enjoyful .. how exciting!

    Happy .. I'm going to overpack so I need my carryon luggage!  ha!  I need a couple of pairs of sandals, flipflops, sundress, a few pairs of shorts, shirts, blow dryer and all that stuff.  I know, I'm crazy to bring so much stuff!

    hugs,

    Bren,

    When I lived in South Asia and we traveled throughout Europe for six weeks at a time, I learned how to pack light.  It has always been my downfall to try to pack for a couple of days!  I have been getting better, though, especially as I remind myself that there ARE stores where I am going!  Wearing shorts, shirt, shoes & socks and appropriate underpinnings on Saturday.  Capris, shirt, crocs & unders for Sunday.  New shorts, shirt, socks & unders for Monday.  Toiletries, blowdryer, nightclothes, and something to read.  Maybe iPad.  MP3 player.  Done!

    It's tall, narrow, and light.  Maybe 3-4' tall and less than 1' wide.  I'll have to carry it on separately, no biggie.

    Thanks Susieq -- Think of us as you're having dinner in London on Sunday!  

    Cookiegal -- Not to worry, we have a covered deck!  But do take a benedryl for added protection!

    I'll sit outside with you Cookie, cause I know I'll get overheated with the rain humidity....sigh. My own little furnace, I wish I could bottle it and save it for the winter months...sigh.

    Hahahah, Barbe -- DH says the same thing about me.  When I put my hand on him while we're sleeping, he says, "Stooooop!  You're BURNING me!"  Sometimes I'm even too hot for the cat -- he will move away from me and just put a paw or his tail on me to make sure I'm still there!

    Happy .. Tim says the EXACT same thing to me.  My job is to warm up his side of the bed in the winter before he goes to bed!  I'm a human hot water bottle!

    Can't wait to see everyone .. only two more days!

    I know everyone will have a wonderful time. 

    Those of us--like myself--who can't make the gathering can be there in spirit and with spirits.  I will be lifting my glass of absinthe to Elizabeth at the appointed hour probably from a ferry in Seattle.

    I look forward to the pictures!

    Starting to think of what to pack and all of the errands I have to run tomorrow to get ready.  Got the water bill paid.  Last year when I went to see my grandkids, I forgot to pay the water bill.  Poor Mr. Tim, they shut the freakin' water off on him!!  He's asked me four times already if I paid the bill.  Bless his heart!  I made sure he'll have plenty of water.

    Can't wait to meet everyone! 

    Bren

    EDITED:  I just checked the weather for the weekend .. pack your umbrellas!

    Checking in to wish you all a wonderful time. Green with jealousy doesn't begin to explain how much I would love to be there with you all, but I'm there is spirit. As 3monst says, I will be there at the appointed time to pay tribute to our dear sweet KK.

    Can someone post here when you are about to raise a glass to her? I would love to join in . 

    Bren, glad that Mr. Tim has plenty of water this time. :) 

    Heat: I must have a resting temperature of 100 degrees. It's the damned hormone therapy that does it, IMO.

    E: Did BCO send you all a banner? How cool! Make sure we see it in the pictures. 

    Hugs to all!

    BCO did send me a banner, Athena!  In a long and thin triangular box.  I haven't opened it yet but will wait until NOTL for the grand unveiling.

    Canadian money is worth more than American these days but border towns might accept either. Credit cards always work
