I spent Canada Day in my hometown. I stopped by the local museum, walked along my favourite beach, had dinner with my best friend and her family (and took a dip in their pool) and ended the night watching fireworks with my boyfriend and my mother. A quiet but perfect day. I was completely unplugged when I was in my hometown so I'm just now getting caught up on what my fellow Canadian BlogHer's were doing for Canada Day.

Zesty did some daytripping in small town Ontario. There really is nothing like a small town celebration.

Love Like a Vegan made a special Canada Day breakfast that you'll certainly want to try in your home.

Erica at Five Blondes had the best Canada Day ever.

I looked at the “Diamonds and Devils” machine, glanced at my engagement ring (especially shiny and glittery as I had it cleaned the day before), and decided that this? Was my game.

Not Expected but Selected didn't have such a fantastic Canada day as Lethbridge, Alberta flooded.

Canada Day was wet. Really wet. I had the oppourtunity to have a much needed snooze Tuesday morning and woke up to an overcast sky. I was hoping to spend the day in the sun and was quite disappointed! Around noon it started to pour. When I say pour, I mean 42mm in 2 hours!!

Happy Fourth of July to all our American BlogHers. I hope your day is drier than Not Expected's!
