Couldn't resist : ) Spent a most enjoyable few hours at the Saskatoon Farm yesterday, with my youngest daughter and two members of the photography group that she leads. It's a fascinating place to visit, with all sorts of things to photograph, a gift shop, a food shop, and a restaurant that offers delicious food! I love their quiche. So nice to just wander at leisure and have lunch together. This was the very first time that I had driven there, though I had been with various friends maybe three or so times before. So, that's one more place I can now drive to, which feels good.

On Saturday, 28 September 2013, I went with my youngest daughter and two people who belong to the photography group that my daughter leads, to the Saskatoon Farm for a few very enjoyable hours. This is a photo of just one of the many statues and sculptures that decorate the grounds, and there are things of interest everywhere you look. They have a restaurant, too, which serves delicious food - I love their deep Quiche! You can go there and pick your own Saskatoon berries in the right season. There is a large gift shop and a food shop to keep you busy. I'm guessing that the statue in my photo is a replica of a Chinese Warrior, Terracotta Army.

Bought a box of four of these tasty tarts.

On Saturday, 28 September 2013, I went with my youngest daughter and two people who belong to the photography group that my daughter leads, to the Saskatoon Farm (S of Calgary) for a few very enjoyable hours. This is a photo of one of the various wall decorations they had there. Very tempting, though I didn't see the price on the other side of the tag! They have a restaurant, too, which serves delicious food - I love their deep Quiche! You can go there and pick your own Saskatoon berries in the right season.

Noticed a couple of these beautiful Poppies when I was at the Saskatoon Farm on 28 September 2013 with my youngest daughter and two of the participants in her photography group. So good to still see some garden flowers in bloom, as October was only a couple of days away. Pink is the colour associated with Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer Awareness Month (October).
"Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM) (also referred to in America as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (NBCAM)) is an annual international health campaign organized by major breast cancer charities every October to increase awareness of the disease and to raise funds for research into its cause, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and cure. The campaign also offers information and support to those affected by breast cancer. As well as providing a platform for breast cancer charities to raise awareness of their work and of the disease, BCAM is also a prime opportunity to remind women to be breast aware for earlier detection.
In 1993 Evelyn Lauder, Senior Corporate Vice President of the Estée Lauder Companies founded The Breast Cancer Research Foundation and established the pink ribbon as its symbol, though this was not the first time the ribbon was used to symbolize breast cancer. In the fall of 1991, the Susan G. Komen Foundation had handed out pink ribbons to participants in its New York City race for breast cancer survivors." From Wikipedia.
