I had one of my faves - genuinely Mexican food. Don't get me wrong, i loves me some fast food Tex-Mex like Quesada but real Mexican food cooked by Mexican cooks is a whole other plane of reality. And it's damnably hard to find in Canada, esp. the culinary wasteland that is London. Chicken enchiladas in tomatillo sauce with onions for the win.

Sweet. I too had one of my faves - spaghetti made by my personal at-home chef.

I think I am scheduled to cook spaghetti between when we get back from vacation and when we move Little M.

Still waiting...and trying to think of what I'm going to write about

It's been so long since I had spaghetti - over 5 yrs I think.

Spaghetti is Canadian food?
I thought real Canadian food was butter tarts, poutine and maple syrup. (Not in the same dish, however.)

Aren't butter tarts British?

We consider it Canadian in our house because it is a dish I, rather than Yobo, have long eaten.

 

[BethAnne]

Technically, any dish eaten within the borders of Canada is a Canadian dish

They're considered to be a part of Canadian cuisine (not to be confused with butter pies which are British).

Butter tarts are absolutely Canadian.

Butter tarts are absolutely Canadian.

They've always been Canadian to me because the best ones came from either my mother's oven or the little bake shop that used to be in Carnarvon, Ontario back in the seventies (forget exactly when it folded).

The best butter tarts I can recall we used to eat at my Dad's curling club when I was a kid. Big, delicious, warm, rich, flaky and yummy. Ooey-gooey good.

Carnarvon? Wow. I have many great memories of Little Boshkung where my great-aunt and uncle had a cottage.

We are on Boshkung Lake and have been since the forties when Grandad bought the property. My aunt and my brother jointly own the property now.

That is how they should be.

Okay...I always thought they were British as they were an integral part of Christmas on my mom's English side of the family, along with trifle...though we would make and eat butter tarts year round.

Today is National Burger Day in America (I just found out on Twitter). I feel Americans probably eat enough burgers anyway, but it seems they need a special day for it. I'm going to join in the fun, eating lots of burgers today myself.

What's your favorite burger?

 

[BethAnne]

A&W teen burger

Muggy, smoky morning...I thought I was getting better but it seems not yet.

 

[Redbaron]

Eat a turkeyburger, chickenburger or veggieburger in protest.

I ate a cottage cheese burger once at a friend's - they didn't eat any meat...it was different.
