Unlike this morning [rain] yesterday was a perfect day, some clouds, and nice breeze early with temperatures up near 16c.
Was a great day for walking in the hills and picking de berries, unfortunately other things had to be attended to.
The OK site was on the slow side, waiting for concrete to harden up a bit, but still some essentials being carried out.
Then the bread and sweets larder was on the low side so Ihad to replenish that.



Pictured: some whole wheat bread and buns and some of my favorite lemon and raspberry squares.

Then I put together some turkey and chicken burgers. Very simple and tasty. I ground the meats, added some cilantro, dill and a Chinese peppery thing from the garden plus some mayo and fine diced onion, cooked em on the grill.
Added them to top of the fresh cooked bun, lettuce [from the garden] onion and tomato.










On more mundane topics. Not surprising that Ottawa has a toxic leak issue is it; guess they do not monitor the air quality, parliament being delayed in opening it would have been a good time to do a base line study.

Then down under there are these pack of drongos, Christ almighty mate everybody knows that a pair of stubbies and a Chesty Bonds is the males choice of attire. Well Ok there is the odd female, but Chesty Bonds come in various sizes, and as they say "if you want to join the club".

The election for the Liberal candidate for the Torngat Mountains district was held yesterday; at writing I do not know the outcome, nor am I very interested.

The PC’s have still not announced any candidates for the seat, nor am I very interested.

There is word around that the Labrador Party will have a candidate running for the seat, now that is interesting.
The person mentioned is not well known to me. I know the surname and the place of this person’s employment, both things combined could add a bit of spice to what is looming province wide as a bloody big yawn fest.
If the poles are correct [77% for PC’s] then perhaps all those funny little jokes about Newfoundlanders are a bit closer to the bone then one expected.
I have wonder if anybody remembers what happened in New Brunswick the election after the Liberals had a clean sweep.

Update: It's pissing down rain out there, and Danny Dumaresque won the Liberal Nomination race for the district of Torngat Mountains.

UpdateII: and it's Grandparents Day tomorrow.

i doubt if it'll be a clean sweep! we have a great liberal mha in our area (kelvin parsons) and i doubt if he'll be defeated.
