    The Tiara Trio

    June 22, 2022 /

    Recently, the Sisterhood decided to take a short vacation just to “clear the cobwebs,” relax and above all, maximize the fun factor. We had originally planned a visit to Montreal but instead ended up on Vancouver Island in beautiful British Columbia, Canada….its a long story. Of course we are first and foremost planners. Each sister was charged with bringing an activity so at various points we found ourselves playing Big Sis’ favorite card game called “Sticks”, a version of charades called “Heads Up” favored by Middle Sis and working on our hand eye coordination with Little Sis’ ball contraption. (Big Sis really wanted Middle Sis to plan a “Kerri-Oke” activity,…

    Bonjour Montreal!

    June 6, 2022 /

    This was to be a post just a few days before we left for Montreal to walk a 5k race and see our brother Randy. But, as we have all experienced numerous times over the past few years, we have had to cancel our trip. This means that we do not have our usual Monday blog post today for your reading pleasure. But, fear not, the Sisterhood is nothing if not resilient, and so we will be doing a shorter trip closer to home and will bring you all the details of our adventure in the coming weeks. So for now, its “au revoir” to Montreal but we will be…

    I’ve Got That Uneasy Queasy Feeling

    March 14, 2022 /

    COVID has lulled the Sisterhood into a routine, “one day looks the same as the next,” kind of life. But with all signs pointing to the virus receding into the background soon, and the likelihood that we will be able to resume the pursuit of our goal to walk a 5k race in every province and territory in the country, we thought it was time to get the competitive juices flowing again. Revisiting a time when we abandoned our comfort zone and tackled something that got our hearts racing and the adrenaline pumping will hopefully provide the needed inspiration. You are advised to read on at your peril. The following…

    Thinking While Drinking…

    February 7, 2022 /

    Although it's entirely possible that one might assume alcohol plays a major part in our conversations, the Sisterhood is in fact, a serious and sober entity. Granted, there have been a few occasions where we have enjoyed spirited (pun intended) and creative discussions on unusual topics, some of which are obscure and others that are just plain silly. We usually end up laughing and enjoying ourselves immensely.

    With Christmas as the main event, it seemed like a natural fit to choose "family" as our word of the month for December. Even though COVID continued to make things challenging, the Sisterhood looked forward to the holiday season.

 * our mom Betty and how she inspired us to start our blog
 *the fun and laughter we have at our weekly meetings and on our yearly Sisterhood trips
 *the opportunity to offer Little Sis career and retirement advice😂

As kids growing up we always looked forward to rec As kids growing up we always looked forward to receiving a cracker box full of grandma’s shortbread cookies at Christmas.

This Christmas Middle Sis was feeling nostalgic and decided to try making shortbread using grandma’s recipe. After an unsuccessful hunt for grandma’s original recipe, Big Sis found this version created from grandma’s recipe. 
.
Determined to have this be the year of shortbread success, Middle Sis followed the recipe to a”t” and managed to turn out a few dozen cookies that she thinks grandma would approve of.

Big Sis has just experienced a moment of pure joy! Big Sis has just experienced a moment of pure joy! How does this relate to a row of single shoes? Well, there is a fascinating story behind this picture. You see she recently had bunion surgery on her left foot and although it was scary and painful, it was well worth the suffering and agony.
.
She is now able to wear a variety of”normal” shoes,
(refer to the above picture) and shopping for even more normal shoes has become a regular activity. So much fun!! The excitement is real😉.

But before we do that, of course we need to fill you in on our summer activities. Perhaps the most significant event was a perfectly executed surprise 60th birthday party for Little Sis. (Spoiler alert, she was really surprised!)
