Please Note: Monday is Civic Day, a holiday; so see you all on Tuesday, bright-eyed and bushy tailed for Suman's Writing Workshop!
Kole, Lena, Katie, Ebrahim, Teresa, Marjan, Wendy, Lisa, Glory, Chang, Ying, Ding, Ming, Silvia, Guoyong, Annie Liu, Yoo Lee, and their families toast to a great summer!
Heading over in several cars from Don Mills Station, Dad's Cookie Outlet (370 Progress), and the Good Will Thrift Store, a whole bunch of us descended upon Thomson Memorial Park for the annual Scarborough Ribfest.
Mary, Lily Hua, and Lily Sun and their family and friends are all smiles.
Despite our best efforts to be thrifty, we may have spent more on this field trip than on previous occasions to the Ribfest. First, some of us were stopped at the entrance and had to cough up the $2 entrance fee. Others sneaked through! But it was all for a good cause--a donation to the Rotary Club, who organized the event. Then we bought and ate more than we did in previous years--some generously sharing their purchases, like Ming, Wendy, and Glory.
In less than an hour, we went from rummaging through rags to living high on the hog!
For most of us, this was our first time enjoying a taste of the great North American outdoors the North American way. What were your impressions of today's field trip? Let's read each other's blogs, and don't forget to leave a comment or two!

Not everything's by weight anymore at this thrift store--designer brands get designer brand price tags!
Cookies and thrift store loot safely stashed away, we were ready to move on to greener pastures!
But it was hard tearing away from those discounts--what, branded Crocs for 77 cents?
Best thing since unsliced bread: how do you spell pulled pork? How do you say it?
Yep, it's that big ole' onion again!
Can't wait to see Chang's professional pictures!
Not them frozen precooked ribs from Food Basics. What good eats these are!
