Welcome to Litsy!

I just started this book for #foodandlit #Canada @Catsandbooks

This is the story of Elie, a young Innu convicted of murder & banned from his community who ends up homeless in Montréal (called Tiohti�:ke in Mohawk) - like many other First Nations men & women - before turning his life around. Not a masterpiece, but both moving & informative.
Written by a Mashteuiatsh Innu author

I chose Canadian Summer, the sequel to The Mitchells: Five For Victory for #foodandlit this month. The Mitchell family moves to Montreal from Washington, D.C. shortly after the end of WWII. There are 6 Mitchell children & they get up to all sorts of shenanigans. They befriend some of the French speaking locals & other interesting neighbors. These are sweet & cozy & I‘m looking forward to reading the next book in the series. 4⭐️🇨🇦

November 18th #DaysDevotedTo Princess 👸 My favorite princess book from a #CanadianAuthor #FoodandLit @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Texreader @Catsandbooks

5✨ I laughed, cried, and loved this book. We follow Elizabeth, a cultured East Canada teacher, when gets a position in the frontier to teach a small town that has never had a teacher. Her struggle to hard living is a major learning experience to her. She tries to hold her head high, but what she doesn‘t struggle with is loving and teaching her students. As a teacher struggling myself this was the book I needed. #FoodandLit 🇨🇦

This is another beautifully illustrated Canadian cookbook that showcases multiple different Canadian chefs. The recipe I most want to make is tartiflette au fromage (cheese tart). 4.5⭐️

I chose this cookbook for #foodandlit this month. It was originally published in 1966 so there are no food pictures but there are a lot of authentic Canadian dishes that sound delicious. I might finally make scotch eggs which I‘ve been wanting to do for awhile. 3.5⭐️
