Our new reality
With the global pandemic COVID-19 upon us and so many are trying to do our part to #flattenthecurve, the Patio Girlz have become creative. Today we embraced learning new technology (thanks to Kathy’s daughter Ruth) and made pizza dough together through facebooks’ messenger video app. Each in our own kitchen we measured, stirred, pounded the […]

Patio Girl down
May was a temperamental month with few opportunities for the Girlz to get together; however, we did manage to celebrate the birth of the Royal baby, Archie. The celebration was somewhat marred by the absence of Kathy who choose to spend that particular Friday with the Porch Girls! Yes, you read that correctly, the Porch […]

The Patio is Open!
It’s official, Pat’s Patio is open for the season! Unlike our delusional false start in March when the sun was shining and the temperature was almost at 10° C above zero, today was a perfect day for the patio. It was a full patio with all the Girlz and husbands present and accounted for! […]

I realize it’s been a while since I have posted anything, but this little memory greeted me on FB this morning so I thought I would share it.

No road is too long when you’re in good company…

Happy Thanksgiving
The Patio Girlz took a break from our Friday night patio since we returned from the East Coast. Work, family and other fall activities (painting bedrooms, hosting parents, family birthdays and bringing in the geraniums before the first frost) kept us away from the patio. The pouring rain didn’t help either! Today was the last […]

A Journey is Best Measured in Friends, Rather than Miles.
And so our trip is done and what will I remember the most? I will remember the giggles, the chuckles, and the side-splitting laughter. The birthplace of the mermaids, the mysterious message on the beach, the car karaoke, and the many other times when we were breathless in our hilarity. Thanks to my friend Tracey […]

And we are home! The Adventures of a Patiogirl.
Well we are back! ALL safe, sound and accounted for. We didn’t leave anyone on the side roads, even though there were some close calls, like when Tracey and Gwen decided to park us in some random driveway and run across the road to take yet another picture. Day 8 Anyone who knows me, knows […]

Day 10 Homeward Bound
The Patio Girlz left Edmunston, NB this morning for home. The fall colour is just starting along the St John River creating an even more scenic drive. We stopped for a nice picnic lunch in Quebec consisting of New Brunswick fresh rolls and tea biscuits, Ontario cheese, Nova Scotia blueberry jam, oatcakes and Gravenstein apples. […]

The Search For Paul McCartney
Well, despite our best efforts, still no sighting of #Paul McCartney. The Patio Girlz have it on good authority that he is in Toronto at the end of the week. Hmm, a day trip may be in order!
