Tim's Block Party

We'd heard about Tim's block parties: Good food, good conversation... a chance to meet everyone.  Yes, we'd heard about it.  Finally, yesterday, we got to go to one!

I used Jackie as slave labour to make scones.  (Using the leftover "self-rising" flour from when "we" made cake.)

We headed across the street with the fresh out of the oven goodies and some jam.  I also carried a bit of anxiety.  Will they like me? 

Immediately on arrival, plates of other delicious food were handed to me.  Well, I was certainly  liking these people. 




I sat down, had a snack, and started taking photos. 
I learned Claude was quite the chef. 


We officially met Adam and his two daughters, Hazel and Leanore.





We found out Harpreet and Suk were expecting twins.   Little Kiran was going to be a big sister! 

(Right: Loved Andrew's T-shirt.  Yep, he's a geologist.)







Todd (a little further down the block) is a musician and is a part of B Scene Studios.



Paul was right, there was nothing to be worried about.  These people are warm and friendly.  I'm really loving our neighbourhood.
