<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Zaar has been such a super experience for me.Not only do I get to try new recipes...play with my camera taking foodie pics but I get to make new friends along the way! <br />I'm currently unemployed so have lots more time to devote to a couple of my passions...cooking and photography. <br />So long as my health is good...I'm full speed ahead! <br />I love gardening as well and grow my own herbs. <br />I love my city...just ask me! LOL <br />I ♥ MTL</span></strong> <br /><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Montreal has many food festivals and of course our famous Jazz festival and also the Comedy festival"Just for laughs". <br />Below is my Grand-Kitten, Hopper...since I have no grandbabies yet and he belongs to my son...I decided he deserved the title and he is just the apple of my eye...he is 8 weeks in this
