Welcome to the first (unofficial) weekend of the Summer. With friendly weather coming our way, there's no excuse for you not to get out there and enjoy Cabbagetown in all it's splendour.
And don't worry about missing work Monday, the Queen wanted it this way:
"Queen
Victoria was born on May 24, 1819. Following the death of three uncles and her
father, she became Queen of the United Kingdom on June 20, 1837 and reigned
until her death on January 22, 1901. Victoria is still the longest-reigning
monarch of the United Kingdom. During Victoria's life, the British Empire
expanded considerably. However, her powers as Queen of the United Kingdom were
reduced as the House of Commons became more important and powerful in British
politics.
The monarch's birthday has been celebrated in Canada since before the beginning of Queen Victoria's reign. After her death, in 1901, May 25 became known as Empire Day. The sovereign's official birthday was still celebrated, often on the King's or Queen's actual birthday. In 1952, Empire Day was moved to the Monday before May 25 and since 1953, the official birthday of Queen Elizabeth II has been celebrated on this date in Canada. In 1958, Empire Day became known as Commonwealth Day, which was moved to the second Monday in March. The Monday before May 25 then became known as Victoria Day, which is a Canadian statutory holiday."

A testimonial from Patty's winning customer:
"I entered my name in a Mother's Day Draw at The Epicure Shop, where
my family shops all the time and I won! The picture is of my mom
collecting the basket on my behalf and who received it as a gift for
Mother's Day. She loved Patty's selection of coffee, tea, and sweet treats!
Thanks Epicure!"
