I am thankful for:

the workers who make and keep the canal skate-able ... and being out skating with a friend
the workers who track set the trails at Mooney's Bay ... and being out skiing with a friend
the lovely snowy trails and lake ... and time out there with Roland, Heidi and Luna
Heidi taking so many amazing photos on her DSRL ... and letting me include some of them in this week's newsletter
Luna being such a cute photography subject ... and being so cuddly, loving and full of personality
lots of time outdoors
donations for my treat packages, help with putting together card-making kits for my classes for the Dementia Society ... the recipients are so very appreciative
participation in my classes ... I so enjoy sharing my crafting hobby with others
the cute snowmen, snow ladies and snow forts and other creations in the neighbourhood ... it just makes me happy to see them and know that people have been enjoying the outdoors
and so many, many more things.

Upcoming and Recent Creative Treats Activities

I am wrapping up the "Galentine's Day" #TreatBox packages which I'll be delivering soon to Nelson House women's shelter. And some #TreatBoxes that I'll be delivering to Debra Dynes Family House.

I created a few more YouTube videos. Links are included below along with photos of the projects. I'd love any feedback.

I am holding weekly #CreatingCardsTogether sessions on Zoom each Wednesday at 3:30. I hope you will join me. You can sign-up over at Eventbrite or simply use this Zoom link.

This video explains how to make boxes perfectly sized to hold Lindor chocolates to help make them a surprise treat. So thankful for a friend donating the chocolates for the Valentine's Day treat packages going to women's shelters. I'd love to hear any feedback and suggestions.
