OK, we'll alternate the two :biggrin2:
Danolo said:MMMM Canadian Maple Syrup.
I have about 1/2 a jug left, so I'm going to have to go the farmer's market in P'boro and get another one. My favourite supplier there makes great Maple Syrup.
For my breakfast, I have one shredded wheat, with a small amount of 1% milk and a couple tablespoons of Maple syrup.
As for bacon, I seldom buy it anymore, because I haven't found a great supplier here in Toronto. When I lived in P'Boro, I bought bacon at Franz's Butcher shop. They cured their own bacon and it was wonderful.
I'll check out the St.Lawrence Market for bacon then next time I trek down there for Cheddar cheese.

oldguyzer said:Bacon frozen is like sexy women in overcoats...just hinting at potential.
papasmerf said:You said a delicious mouthful
I do however suggest that you package Bacon in 1 kg packages, when you freeze it.
That way you can have two full servings in each package.

If you guys don’t mind, I saw something today and had to share…
This morning I had the usually unpleasant task of going to the post office to mail a stack of things (yes, there are still post offices, Virginia). It was uncharacteristically quiet -for once there was no line-and yet the woman behind the counter looked up at me sheepishly as I approached and asked if I’d mind waiting.
No problem.
I noticed her going through a stack of holiday cards and packages and swiping her own credit card. I guess I must have looked curious.
She smiled guiltily.
"A lot of people send stuff with not enough postage this time of year. They probably just miscalculate or forget. I don’t want to have to bounce any of them back, it’s the holidays."
It wasn’t one or two, it was 20 or 30, all in pretty envelopes, holiday cards and boxes. I saw one small package that seemed to be to the grandchildren, from grandparents across the country. And out of her own pocket, this postal worker was just quietly and without recognition, paying for all of them, to make sure no one missed out on these little moments of love sent through the mail.
It was a good reminder that sometimes we don’t even know when someone has done something nice for us. It made my day, hope it makes yours too.
Sorry for all that sincerity, don’t worry, I’m tapped for the week now. Happy Thursday.
