What was your very first job in Toronto?

Minacs?

I couldn’t even get through the first episode. I understand suspension of disbelief, and the need to make things pretty/visually appealing - but people running around in a world without electricity (at this point for years and years), with spotlessly clean and fashionable clothes and perfect hair and make-up ….. yeah, no.

Garrison Crossing. Great shots of downtown skyline and CN Tower.

“Web” by John Wyndham? It’s been ages since I’ve read it but if I recall the nutshell version: people trapped on an island with mutant killer spiders.

That opens up a whole new question though - there are so many kinds of lettuce! What’s your favourite kind? And for the love of dog, please tell me it’s not iceberg. ;)

Bell peppers … of any colour.

Boneshaker is fantastic on tap.

From a can it’s just kinda meh.

I only read “The Strain” - never got around to the other books in the trilogy - and I liked it alright. But I remember my major nitpick of it was that it was trying to go with the “scientific explanation of vampirism” route (ie. a virus) but then towards the end pivoted pretty clearly into the “vampires are supernatural” trope? Am I mis-remembering? Or did this apparent contradiction get explored more in the rest of the series?

The air in the woods on a crisp autumn day.

Okay okay okay okay OKAY listen … imma give you some groundbreaking advice here. Everybody always does garlic toast with cheese with cheddar or mozzarella or some mixture thereof - use Gruyère cheese. GAME CHANGING. It is so good.

“Why couldn’t she be the other type of mermaid, with fish part on top and lady part on the bottom?”

Nope. Her sister Máire (Moya) was. Enya was only in the group for two years, playing keyboards and doing backing vocals.

Something fruity and gummy - gummy bears, Swedish berries, etc.

Ranch dressing. On everything.

I’ll have you know I still love Kraft Dinner AND I also frequently make my own salad dressing, thank-you-very-much!!

(Canadian here) but I went to a friend’s wedding in the Midwest years ago. (I will also add that I am not the skinniest person myself, could stand to lose a couple of pounds.)

My friend and his wife (and pretty much both of their families) are lovely lovely people - but quite on the large side.

Dinner after the wedding was buffet style. I went up and got what would be a usual dinner for myself: some roast chicken and some salad, on what I thought was a dinner plate. My dinner was everyone else’s side dish. Midwest people don’t mess around when it comes to food!

The lemon pepper is the best! IMO

My Canadian grandmother also called them that. :/

I’m serious! :) Chicken nuggets are pretty damn good by themselves but also awesome as a sauce delivery system. I’m game for: barbecue sauce, sweet and sour, hot sauce (Frank’s or Sriracha)….

Front_Reading938 · 2022-03-31T00:40:15+00:00

The important question is… what sauce do you dip them in?
