Happy Canada Day!

Or Happy Dominion Day if you’re my husband. He hauls this t-shirt out every July 1st and stomps about the house in it explaining how Canada’s the first “Dominion” and we should revel in it, not ignore it. Living with an historian comes in handy when playing Trivial Pursuit, but there are times when I’d like to be able to wish friends a Happy Canada Day without risking the Dominion Day Lecture.

Today’s a special day for other reasons; it launches my six-month stint as a guest blogger for the Accidental Hedonist. I’ll be posting there every Tuesday until the new year. Don’t worry, I’ll provide a link so you can drop by and see what’s cooking on this fun and eclectic foodie site. Expect to see some recipes inspired by my travels to the US.

In the meantime, I will leave you with a Canada Day joke.

Q: Why did the Canadian cross the road?

A: To get to the middle.
