The second Monday of October marks one of the most heartfelt celebrations in Canada: Thanksgiving Day. In Banff, this time of year arrives with crisp air, golden light, and a soft stillness that gently settles over the town.
As the trails grow quiet and the first snow begins to dust the mountain peaks, Thanksgiving becomes more than just a holiday , it becomes a chance to pause, reflect, and give thanks for the simple things in life: a warm home, the company of loved ones… or even a moment of silence just for yourself.
A day to share, a night to reconnect
I believe in the beauty of small rituals. When the day comes to an end, I like to close it with a warm cup of tea in my hands.
On nights like this, I enjoy a black tea like Banff Breakfast or Maple Black, both of which offer warmth and depth with their bold, comforting flavors. The perfect blend to accompany a quiet evening filled with gratitude.
