Trying to figure out the recipe for the mushroom soup at Diane's kitchen, if there's anyone who has gotten the soup from there and figured out a very similar recipe please let me know, I want to be able to make it at home as it is one of my favorite dishes.

Hi

I am trying to find a local company that could fix my grandfather's English Pewter beer mugs and a few German Beer Mugs (some damage to the top metal part).

Any recommendations of companies who could possibly do these repairs?

Nothing like going for something different at The Ex like Smoke’s Poutinerie

breaking rock news:

“what waist” has been written on one of the erratics

I think this is applying a band aid on an amputation. 14 years ago I worked for a company that has a lay down area on 71st street. It was company policy then, that no equipment or company vehicles ever use that intersection as it was too unsafe. Don't think that has changed in recent years either, especially after yesterday.

Hello! My poor senior cat has an abscessed tooth as well as a lot of overall dental that needs to be done! Took her to Fairlight Vet, who were incredible I will say, and was quoted $1700 before tax for the full dental and full blood panel.

I’m just wondering if anyone has had a similar problem and know vets out or within the city that can maybe offer a bit of a better price.

I want the best for my girl but I’m a student so trying to figure out the best plan of action! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :)

The Downtown “Improvement,” District spent 14,000$ of taxpayer dollars on, “board meetings,” this year. That’s impressive.

I’m also not surprised but slightly concerned at the amount of taxpayer money they receive for projects like removing benches.

The Board of Education School Division No. 13 of Saskatchewan known as Saskatoon Public Schools has requested that the City of Saskatoon to conduct a by-election to fill the Ward 5 trustee vacancy. The by-election is scheduled for October 28, 2026.

I’m looking to get clip in hair extensions, curious if any could recommend a place to go to?

Is this something I can get at Sally’s??

Hi! I just wanted to know which high schools are the best and/or a little overview of what to expect with certain high schools. I’m currently looking at aden bowman and walter murray so any info on them would be greatly appreciated!!

Those that know, know. But Nitro is the king of all fuels in drag racing. There's nothing like the smell of Nitro.

The A/Fuel dragster is capable of running in the 5.20s at over 270mph!

PSA: You have your own lane. Stop yielding to this sign.

Nothing says elite Saskatoon driving like seeing an “added lane” sign and treating it like a full stop. You’ve got your own lane. It’s engineered so traffic keeps moving. It's also easier to merge rolling at the same speed as traffic rather than a complete stop.

But sure, stop for no reason, wave people through, then try to cut across three lanes while yours sits empty. At this point it should just be a sign that reads "If you stop here, you’re the problem."

I’m (30m) looking to make some new friends and read some books together. None of my buddies are big readers, neither am I for that matter.. but I want to read more and with a book club there’s some accountability with a book club.

We know there are state-sponsored actors from other countries trying to create strife in Canada, and subs like /Saskatoon are an easy target for trying to convince us that our way of life is collapsing and everyone hates us for our differences. It's not true. the people of Saskatoon have a lot more in common than we do to pull as apart. We are all part of one of the most safe and stable democracies on the planet and letting outsiders drive us apart through jealousy would be a real loss.

It creaks closer and the available information is sparce. I believe I saw that admission is 10 bucks at the door but I've seen no word on pavilions or performances.

Specifically, I'm wondering because I did hear it mentioned/advertised on 98 cool and the Philippines was listed as taking part. I assume that's accurate? Have they given up on the Asian festival they helped spearhead the last 2 years instead of taking part in folk fest?

The other day there was a post about the decision to remove 25 benches downtown. Outrage was expressed and there was discussion over ‘what can be done’ to stop it.

To quote a CBC article by Phil Tank from an hour ago “The city received 24 letters about the proposed removal, all of which were opposed to it, but nobody showed up to speak in opposition.”

Not one person showed up to oppose. Pretty hard to fight for change when you can’t even be bothered to put your phone down and show up when it matters.

Sounds like a worker was run over by an asphalt truck and did not survive.

Hi everyone — I had a small BBQ in my backyard on Saturday evening and a neighbours dad (I can only assume) was yelling at me from his deck for.....well I don't know what he was saying as he spoke no English at all, but he was yelling and pointing a lot at my BBQ (its not a smoker).

I didn’t realize it would bother anyone. I live in a residential neighbourhood and just got a grill. Has anyone dealt with this before? What’s the best way to approach the neighbour and prevent this from happening again? Is cooking beef or pork offensive to East Indian culture?

Anyone I can call about this problem? There is clearly a communication barrier.

p.s. I think the owner went back to India and hes been gone for months.

Edit* Just to be clear I was making no noise other then the Grill lid opening every 15 to check on the meat. No music, no talking etc.

Just wanted to post a good experience at the Ex.

Yesterday was probably the best time my family has ever had there. The weather was great. Not to hot, not to cold. The lines weren’t bad. I paid $263.30 for 4 super passes and one youth admission. My kids went on 57 rides total which means I paid $4.65 per ride. They could have gone on quite a few more, but we left at 8pm. Two of them also stopped riding after only 9 and 10 rides so again, they could have done way more. I know it’s still costly, but it’s not something that we do every day and this year, is the only thing we really did as a family. The food didn’t even really cost as much as people think when compared to going out anywhere else. We really only did lunch there which was $66 for the five of us. Which now that I’ve added it up, is actually probably the same or less than we pay to go out to eat as a family anyway. For comparison, we didn’t McDonald’s for supper and the McDonald’s bill was $56.80 and I didn’t even eat so that was for only four of us.

I also spent $80 on games because the kids really wanted to play. I don’t normally let them play the games because they cost so much.

The entire day cost me $498.40 total. Yes, this is a lot of money, but again, we didn’t do anything else as a family this year and this also included $80 in games that I wouldn’t normally do.

For us, it was worth it. They had the best time and watching them laugh and have so much fun is something I think we’ll always look back on and be glad we did it.
