That's what I was wondering, Betsi. Lindsay, what is in the gravy that you put on the fries.

Lindsey · 12-09-2009, 06:17 AM

Lol nope! That's another thing I've found from traveling in the states... you don't eat gravy on fries!!! It's just what you make with turkey or chicken or roast beef or whatever, but on fries

And for poutine, add cheese to it! Delicious! You guys all need to come up to Canada and try some of this cuisine

MaddieBoo · 12-09-2009, 10:20 AM

Fries with cheese and chili sounds pretty delicious too... Mmmmmm No calories at all in any of this stuff!

We got snow this morning and it is so pretty, but before long it will be a muddy mess!
I love the first snowfall, we have deer that come in our yard in the morning. I should try to get a picture, it would be awesome. I made pumpkin bread this morning and it made the house smell so good.

I would love to see the deer!!!

OHHHH, Lindsay, I just don't know about gravy on fries - mashed potatoes yes, fries, I'm just not so sure about.

YES Maddie, chili cheese fries are GREAT - and NO, there are no calories!

Marilyn · 12-10-2009, 04:49 AM

Y'all are crazy!!! Poutine sounds interesting. It's wild what different countries put on fries. In Belgium they eat mayonnaise and fries & they have different flavored mayonnaise's. We sometimes dip fries in gravy when we eat a steak finger basket at Dairy Queen, so I guess it could be good with some kind of cheese. I'd definitely be game to try if I ever get back to Canada. Been their twice, but it's been 24 years since the last visit. A friend moved to Calgary earlier in the year. All she talks about is how beautiful it is and how happy she is. Never mentions the cold, though I've ask her about it.

Lindsey · 12-10-2009, 06:58 AM

Calgary is beautiful! I'm stuck out here in Saskatoon with no mountain views lol. Marilyn, if you go to Calgary to visit your friend, I'll drive down to see you

Lindsey · 12-11-2009, 01:10 PM

Windchill warning tonight for southern Saskatchewan. It's supposed to reach -40 to -45. Boy, am I glad I'm going to southern Saskatchewan to visit Scott's parents for the weekend.

Gina · 12-11-2009, 07:34 PM

Lindsey take out your long johns brrrrrrrrrr thats real cold. It is freezing here in the NE about 26 degrees tonight.. No snowwwwwww yet...

gja1000 · 12-11-2009, 08:40 PM

Lindsay, I hope you made it to Scott's folks with no problems. I always worry about getting stranded when the weather is so cold. I"m a big whimp, that's for sure!

judy · 12-13-2009, 08:14 AM

Stay warm, drive safely, and bundle up!!!

We have had the same weather pattern, BUT add about 60 degrees F! It was also the warmest October and November in ????. Then, it snowed last week big time, and has been cold since. It's 30 degrees F today. I guess you guys would go sunbathing in this weather!

MaddieBoo · 12-13-2009, 02:31 PM

Last night we got down to -35C (-31F). Brr!

Not feeling so beautiful here in Calgary about now. Especially the roads

However, I will say that I love a cold, snowy Christmas. And Christmas baking day. Makes everything seem cozy inside

Lindsey · 12-14-2009, 08:00 AM

We made it there and back home safe! It was soooo cold though. They have a lot more snow than we have, and the highways were pretty icy. There were quite a few tracks into the ditch. We made sure the car was packed with blankets before we left, just in case. Most of Saturday was spent shopping, and walking from the parking lots into stores was terrible. I couldn't even keep my eyes open!

By the end of the week it's supposed to be nice again, around -5C (23F).

Judy, in the fall it seems really cold when it's around that temperature, but after a long cold winter, as soon as it gets above the 0 degree mark I can go outside in a t-shirt no problem lol.

Maddie, I feel the same way about cold snowy Christmases! As long as I don't have to be outside
