Canada Day Covered Dish Supper



We had a good time at the Covered Dish Supper on Saturday night at the Marble Mountain Community Hall to celebrate Canada Day.  There is always a good crowd at these Marble Mountain suppers because MM is known for its excellent cooks.  And again we were not disappointed.  There was a lot of delicious food, and it was good to see friends and neighbors.    We took a red and white jello dish (red and white are the colors of the Canadian flag) and a dish of maple-glazed walnut halves.

Cake for dessert.


It was good to see old friends and make new ones. I understand there will be another supper at the Hall in August.  Oh good, we'll be there.

Happy Canada Day

Happy Canada Day everyone.

Canada Day is the national day of Canada, a federal holiday celebrating the anniversary of the July 1, 1867, enactment of the Constitution Act, 1867,  which united three colonies into a single country called Canada.  Canada Day observances take place throughout Canada as well as internationally.  Canada Day is the equivalent of our (US) July 4. Since July 1 is on Sunday, Monday will be a national holiday.

Here's the National Anthem.
