Okay, so the weather has been pretty good … hot, sticky, breaking new records 😊 We had a couple days of heavy rains … and will probably be much the same for the rest of this week. The number of COVID infections in Ontario is rising at an alarming rate – they set a record today – 4456 new cases across the province, most of them around Toronto and Peel Regions☹ … And we’ve had several outbreaks here in London, mainly at the University and the hospitals. Doug Ford (premier of Ontario) imposed tighter restrictions last Thursday – just short of ‘stay at home’ and only grocery stores and pharmacies open☹ So what do people do around here because of the restrictions? Mostly ignore them – still large social gatherings, parties in houses … people are basically stupid ☹ A slight glimmer of hope … for me anyways … I have an appointment in a weeks time to get my vaccination – either Moderna or Pfizer!! I mentioned last week that we took a drive through the countryside and checked out a couple of houses … we put a bid on one of them, and … we got it!!! 😊 A 151-year-old farmhouse close to Sparta, Ontario. The closing date isn’t until the end of July so we have plenty of time to sell this house and start packing!! Okay, on to food … you’ll notice that there aren’t any pictures of food this week … we were pretty busy and basically made a lot of the old standbys – curries, shepherds pie, steaks, burgers, etc. – and tonight I’m making Italian Meat Sauce with Pasta and Parmesan. Nothing beats fresh pasta made from scratch – it only takes me about 20 minutes to whip up a batch😊 .Kelly and I are into Season 2 of ‘Sneaky Pete’ on Prime … it started off slow but picked up momentum, but still not as good as Season 1 😊. I finished watching ‘Oasis’ - very, very strange – kind of a mixture between a Tarantino movie and a modern western – set in the desert in Southern Spain. Luckily the series is finished – no more seasons are being filmed. I started ‘Bitter Daisies – Season 2’ – it’s very confusing, and nowhere near as good as Season 1 ☹. There’s only 6 episodes so I’ll have to find something new to watch. Golf goes on - The Masters is currently underway – 2 out of 3 Canadians made the cut – currently Corey Connors (he tied for 10th last year) is in 6th, Mackenzie Hughes is tied for 21st, and Mike Weir (who won back in 2000) just missed the cut. It will be exciting to watch this afternoon to see how Connors and Hughes make out!! 😊 Got to go … want to drive by the new house … have a great and safe week … we will see you in a bit!!
