Ah, the trip home, when mom buys all that food she thinks you like and Dad has stashes of snack foods that would make convenience stores look understocked.
Hyperbole.
Anyway, yeah, the trip to Thunder Bay was great, providing my lovely wife with the opportunity to meet most of my extended family as well as some of my friends (the progression of the week ate away our visiting time far too quickly).
Food ate:
Mr. Sub
Turkey dinner (with ham and selection of four Grandma-made pies)
Leftovers + more pie (cherry, peach, pumpkin and raisin)
cheesies (Hawkins, Old Dutch Nacho)
Pogos
Plenty of Chicken wings (at local favourite, On Deck... their Cajun wings are the best wings ever)
A gin and tonic (a moratorium break I couldn't resist)
Old Dutch Potato chips (moratorium break... had to be done for availability of Onion and Garlic in Toronto is nil)
and since I was breaking the moratorium anyway: Bounty chocolate bar
A Tim Horton's donut (yet another moratorium break... I should have had Robin's Donuts, sigh)
Pirogies and pork chops and more pie
Finnish pancakes at the Hoito
A persian in the airport
A cookie on the plane home
I'm certain I gained about three or four pounds on this four-day, four night trip... thankfully the wife and I walked around town a lot (pretty much unheard of around those car-lovin' parts) which hopefully counteracted a lot of the damage.
We had a nice relaxing time. Should have taken the rest of the week off work, oi.
