In the secret spaces of her heart…

” It comes every year and will go on forever. And along with Christmas belong the keepsakes and the customs. Those humble, everyday things a mother clings to, and ponders, like Mary in the secret spaces of her heart.” Marjorie Holmes, American writer.

Come & See this Christmas Eve…

Tortiere & Yule Log Dinner is a Goode Family Tradition for Christmas Eve. Preparations start early in the morning with the guys finishing off the preparations by doing the Yule Log.

And a nice coffee break treat in the afternoon is Mom’s recipe for Steamed Cranberry Pudding. I think everyone loves these favourites!

Adventure For Two

I am from Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, Canada and I'm back from traveling with my husband on an expat assignment to foreign lands. 2011-2012 we were in Shenyang, China. Spring 2012- Spring 2013 we were in Resende,RJ Brazil then back to Shenyang, China in July 2013 until the end of July 2014. Expat life WAS amazing! Adventure abounds no matter where we travel to. We really enjoyed the amazing opportunity to live and experience culture and tradition in these places. BUT now we are finished and adjusting to life in our small town in Canada. Our days of travel and adventure are not over.
