Welcome to A Victorian Year in Ontario

Greetings Ladies and Gentlemen, the year is 1865, Her Majesty Queen Victoria has reigned since 1837 and we are in the midst of a prosperous era. The purpose of this blog is to record the daily round of chores, tasks, trials and triumphs of our household in rural Upper Canada (now known as Ontario). We have embarked on an experiment to live a year as close to the way it was done in 1865 as we possibly can. We will post our remarks and await your comments, suggestions and critiques. So join us as we travel back in time.

Just a report on the sausages. I brought them to Guelph for the family to taste test and they are nummy...they are drier than store bought but tastier with the thyme and apple. Being pure meat makes them drier, guess adding a bit of fat to the mix might help with this..But over all very nice indeed.

    I haven't heard from you in a while, likely because you guys are busy with spring things, but this fluttered through my browser and I thought of you.
    I don't know if it'll let me post this, but here's nothing.

    It's a study, on PubMed, about how Victorians were healthier than we'd think, and why.
