Stompin’ Tom’s “The Good Old Hockey Game” is probably one of the most well know hockey songs. I was pretty disappointed that he didn’t play in the closing ceremonies.

I found this Darth Vader trick or treat bucket in the discount bin at my local zellers. I immediately thought, “Wow that would look great with a snake plant coming out of the top.” I proceeded home and transplanted one of my snake plants into the repurposed bucket. It now is a proud member of my living room.
