Easter Fun

Over Easter, we headed North to good old Calgary to visit with Dora's brother and eat a little turkey.

Anyway, in the recipe section, Mrs. Gordon Ramsey submitted this little...

Tax Time

Well that time of year is coming again and I am back to looking for something to do my taxes. In years past I used quicktax, under my father in laws purchase and last year I used Ufile.
