🍁 Why Canadian Thanksgiving Arrives Early
Ever wondered why Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving on the second Monday of October rather than in November? It all comes down to the rhythm of our northern seasons. With an earlier harvest and colder climate, Canada pauses to give thanks before winter begins to knock.
Back in 1957, Parliament officially designated the second Monday of October as Thanksgiving, creating a uniquely Canadian celebration, one marked by golden leaves, crisp air, and tables filled with a harvest bounty. It’s a moment to gather, reflect, and enjoy the beauty of fall while it’s still in full, colorful swing.

Beefy Onion Casserole
Miz. Helen had the joy of chatting with a group of young homemakers about getting the most out of their food budget. One recipe she shared with them, and that’s been a favorite for years, is this Beefy Onion Casserole. It’s hearty, tasty, and family-friendly, perfect for dinner night, and often leaves you with leftovers! Budget-friendly and always a crowd-pleaser, it’s the kind of dish that’s just as welcome at a potluck as it is at the dinner table.
