With her weekly pick of fun things to do on the weekend, here is the rundown from ‘Global News Morning’s Kahla Evans.
This weekend is all about taking care of your last-minute holiday errands!
1. Last-minute holiday gifts
It seems like it happens every December.
No matter how organized you are, how many lists you make or how early you get started on your shopping, there’s always one person you end up having nothing for.
Thankfully, St. Mary’s Nursery and Garden Centre has something for everyone and at all price points.
I got to hang out with Carla at St. Mary’s earlier this week, and she had tons of great ideas for anyone you may have missed.
There are also endless options for holiday decorations and festive plants, too, if you’re looking to treat yourself to a little something.
More holiday shopping ideas can be found on Carla’s website.
2. Holiday appetizers
Most of us will find ourselves invited to some sort of holiday gathering, or maybe we’re going to be hosting our own shindig over the next several days.
These parties always revolve around the food.

Well, there’s no need to stress! We had Sue from Zest Cooking Solutions swing by the Global News studios with some easy-to-make appies that will wow the crowd.
The vegan “crab” cups, two different types of palmiers and avocado deviled eggs were delicious!
Plus, they cover a variety of diets, including vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free.
All of these recipes and much more from Sue can be found on her Facebook page.
3. Ugly holiday attire
With the stress and anxiety that can come along with the holiday season, it’s important to remember to have fun.
Julie and Lou from ArtsJunktion joined Global News Morning to show Gabby and me just how easy it is to make ugly holiday sweaters.
We had a blast getting creative and laughing at each others’ creations, and I think this would be a great idea for a holiday party.

Imagine great friends, great snacks and all the laughs that come along with creating your own festive wear.

Happy weekend and happy holidays, everyone!
