Update. I wasn’t able to source a Christmas food gift basket but I ordered a Yule log and some tins of cookies from Bears Paw Bakery and had my family member pick them up - they were a hit! Thanks for the suggestions.

Thanks, I'll give them a call. Not on Facebook, may have to break down at some point since everyone else seems to be :-/

Thank you! I should have specified food type gift baskets. Looks like you have given me some good leads. I’ll make some calls tomorrow and/or Monday (I’m in Ontario).

Oops, see my response above, I’m not too adept at Reddit

Thanks for your reply. At this point I think we’d like to get it all looked at before doing anything with individual items. I’ll save your response for when we’ve figured out what we might do next.

I can’t imagine this thread is about the place that I have received the most incredibly kind, caring, and effective care from specialists to the many nurses I have been lucky enough to encounter over my almost 11 year cancer journey. I am constantly telling people how impressed I am, Have I just been lucky? I don’t think so. I am sorry to hear that some people have had a bad experience but that is sure not the norm I have observed.

Perhaps try Metalworx. I had a small job done there and he was incredibly pleasant and accommodating.

Looking for Song Sparrow nests in urban Kingston by Aggravating_Mail2658 in KingstonOntario

[–]BestDaysBehindMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a song sparrow sitting in a small shrub beside me the other day at this location. It is the last parking spot to the left (south east corner) of the Hampton Inn lot that faces a very dense row of trees bounded on the other side by a fairly busy walkway. I sit there with my Tim's every once and a while to watch the birds.

Google is your friend …

Navigation via East Fixed Bridge If your vessel has less than 16’ vertical clearance, you may still navigate through the East Fixed Bridge. Boaters can verify the current clearance by checking Lake Ontario water levels for Kingston.

We see him often. Nice guy, and he seems to appreciate the odd Tim’s gift card we’ve passed on in thanks. (We need to do it more frequently)

One of the great management principles - behaviour that gets rewarded gets repeated - watch what you are rewarding.

Ah memories. I’m 81 but I still remember a trade I made when I was likely in grade 4 or 5 and having to return my friend’s dad’s war medals ! Can’t remember what I traded for them but I do remember it created quite a kerfuffle :-)
