Today, the 25th of November, is St-Catherine's Day. There are many stories about this French-Canadian celebration. Some say that it was St Catherine who made candy to attract children to her school, others say it was St Marguerite Bourgeoys who made candy to celebrate her school's birthday. Anyhow, now was our turn to make taffy, with grandma coaching us over Skype. The picture is not very good, but the taste is delicious!
