Update Regarding Assaults

As some may know there has been a heavy mounted police presence in the Brookbanks area. 33 Division of the police believe that the two incidents in the ravine were ATTEMPTED sexual assaults -- fortunately not successful.  

 

At this point, they do not believe that the incident at Three Valleys and Laurentide was same suspect.

 

Please always walk with a buddy and keep your eyes open. 

Be safe!

The Toronto Zoo

This article made me really sad. I have taken my kids to the Zoo since they were small and we made so many memories. I recommend taking your kids and your grandchildren there and walking to each pavilion to see all the different animals. Pack a lunch and make a day of it!

Chicken nugget recall!

Perdue Foods is announcing the recall of more than 4,000 pounds of Applegate Naturals popular frozen Chicken Nuggets after extraneous plastic materials were found in some.

The recalled products include eight-ounce boxed packages of approximately 18 pieces of "Applegate Naturals Chicken Nuggets" that have a best-by date of Sept. 27, 2016. The boxes also contain an "establishment number" of P-2617 inside the USDA mark of inspection.

Though there have been no reports of adverse reactions by children who consumed the nuggets, Perdue announced the recall after receiving customer complaints of "small, solid, clear plastic" inside the actual nuggets. 

Applegate Farms and Purdue are urging consumers who have the affected boxes to throw them out or return them to their place of purchase. Anyone with additional concerns should reach out to the company directly at help@applegate.com.

The company says it has identified the source of the problem — "the final stages of mixing and producing the product" — and it "will take all the necessary corrective actions to eliminate the problem."

Because no one expects to find plastic in their natural chicken nuggets.

Baby walkers are dangerous

Not only do walkers put babies at a greater risk of injury, but they also hamper some key walking and crawling developmental milestones. If you do have a baby walker, find the serial number and look it up on Consumer Product Safety Commission website to see if there have been any recalls of that product. 

Be safe!
