Happy Canada Day, friends! Because it’s hot as beaver balls in my neck of the Canadian woods (hotter and more humid than Orlando, Florida, whose summer weather I’m convinced occupies its very own circle of hell) I am celebrating this national drinking day holiday indoors, as close to my air conditioner as humanly possible. I see a lot of Trailer Park Boys in my immediate future, as well as the possibly ill-advised plan, given the humidity, to have a roast turkey dinner at my parents’ house tonight, because apparently we are masochists (or are we? My parents’ house boasts some very nice central air, and I think there’s no foodstuff more Canadian than gravy; we will put it in and on anything, including, but not limited to, toasted sandwiches, fries and cheese curds, and pizza.)
I didn’t do any new nail art to commemorate the 1st this year, but I thought it would be fun – and, let’s face it, easy! – to look back at these Canada Proud manicures I’ve done over the years. They feature a wide range of beloved Canadiana, from Timmy’s and 50s, to traditional maple leaves (not to be confused with the Maple Leafs) and the almighty beaver. Happiest of days, Canadian pals!

Happy Canada Day!
Thanks so much! She was a hot one (and now today it’s a downpouring one – I guess that heat had to finally break somehow.) 🙂
What an epic collection. Happy Canada Day, my beaver lovin buddy (awk! strike that), my most Canadian friend:)
P.S. Mmmm, cheese curds.
Heh, you made a dirty joke about beavers – that’s worthy of honourary Canadian status right there!
Hope you had a fabulous holiday! I still love that beaver and Tim Horton’s one. I finally saw my first Tim Horton’s in Maine but missed out on actually stopping in. Next time. ❤
It’s definitely worth a stop just once to see what we Canadians are always yakking on about. But for real, it’s the Canadian Dunkin Donuts; I don’t know why people go so bonkers for the Timmy’s.
