I just figured out how to check my profile! Thanks for the photos you emailed as well. We missed you at the hockey game, but hopefully we will see you at the Olympic Spirit event on 30 Jan. It is going to be great!

Valerie Poulter commented on Jeremy Eves's event 'Curling Night - Throw (or Rock) away the evening!'
Can't wait to curl again! I was pleasantly surprised it wasn't going to be more to participate. I just wish I could bring some of my friends who scorn the noble sport!
Had I know we had to pay for equipment I could have stockpiled some…
Valerie Poulter replied to Tricia Lestarjette's discussion 'Does anyone know of a Canadian Items Store in Houston??'
I have to get my parents to send me Shreddies and I wait until I'm home to have ketchup or my new fave all dressed chips. My heart broke when my last box of Shreddies got weevils in them...
Keen to curl!

The Canadian Club of Houston's Holiday Party is hosted by The Curling Club of Houston at Space City Ice Station. Come out and celebrate the holidays by reacquainting yourself with one of Canada's most beloved sports. Suitable for beginners to the most seasoned Skip, the evening will start with some mingling followed by a lesson to get warmed up. We've got an hour and a half of ice time and will retire to the lounge to warm up with cocktails.Event Details7:30pm - Meet & Greet8:10pm - Basic…See More

And They Say Canadians Don't Brag
CANADIAN.... Eh !
So, What Do We Canadians Have To Be Proud Of ?
1. Smarties
2. Crispy Crunch, Coffee Crisp
3. The size of our footballs fields, one less down, and bigger balls.
4. Baseball is Canadian - First game June 4, 1838 - Ingersoll , ON
5. Lacrosse is Canadian
6. Hockey is Canadian
7. Basketball is Canadian (or at least was invented by a Canadian)
8. Apple pie is Canadian
9. Mr. Dress-up beats Mr. Rogers
10. Tim Hortons beats Dunkin' Donuts
11. In the war of 1812, started by America , Canadians pushed the Americans back past their White House. Then we burned it, and most of Washington .. We got bored because they ran away. Then, we came home and partied........ Go figure.
12. Canada has the largest French population that never surrendered to Germany .
13. We have the largest English population that never ever surrendered or withdrew during any war to anyone, anywhere. EVER. (We got clobbered in the odd battle but. prevailed in ALL the wars)
14. Our civil war was fought in a bar and lasted a little over an hour.
15. The only person who was arrested in our civil war was an American mercenary, he slept in and missed the whole thing. He showed up just in time to get caught.
16. A Canadian invented Standard Time.
17. The Hudsons Bay Company once owned over 10% of the earth's surface and is still around as the world's oldest company.
18. The average dog sled team can kill and devour a full grown human in under 3 minutes.
(That's more information than I need!)
19. We know what to do with the parts of a buffalo.
20. We don't marry our kin-folk.
21. We invented ski-doos, jet-skis, Velcro, zippers, insulin, penicillin, zambonis and the telephone. Also short wave radios that save countless lives each year.
22. We ALL have frozen our tongues to something metal and lived to tell about it.
23. A Canadian invented Superman.
24. We have coloured money.
25. Our beer advertisements kick ass {Incidently...so does our beer}
BUT MOST IMPORTANT !
The handles on our beer cases are big enough to fit your hands with mitts on.
Oh yeah... And our elections only take one day.
Pass this on if you are proud to be Canadian!!!
