Fall Flowers





Swiss Chalet's Festive Special is on again. It's a favourite of mine at this time of year. Their quarter chicken dinner comes with stuffing, cranberry sauce and Lindt chocolates!

I had the most comfortable mammogram appointment yesterday. First of all, the facility was in a spacious, well-decorated new office. I was in and out within 20 minutes of my arrival. The technician was super-efficient and made the process quick and pain-free. The registered nurse taught me how to do a proper breast self-exam which should be done monthly. I learned a lot, more than if I read the instructions. Women over 50 in Ontario just have to call and register for this program. They will notify you every 2 years to remind you to come in for your checkup. Visit the Ontario breast screening program at www.cancercare.on.ca/obsp
