well I guess we'll have to wait til tomorrow to find out for sure (but I am very confident that's what it is....god I wish this damn virus would vacate my body already...not that I would have been planning on trying it tomorrow)

Poor girl. It's going to come out the same day your taste buds are lost due to the Covid.

[iHeart]

nope my taste buds are still here, but I can't smell anything (and I've been using Bath and Body works soap which sucks because I just cracked open Kitchen Lemon which is a favourite scent at this time of year)

Maybe worth a try. I'll only pay in change, though.

[iHeart]

I'm hoping to try it as soon as I can, my nose is no longer clogged and I'm back at work (I was told I can go back in if I'm still positive but not feeling any symptoms, I think some of my smell is coming back I've been using the good hand sanitizer)

I'm not sure if I mentioned this one before or not but it is nearing the end of curling season and Willy Dogs will be leaving the Deer Lodge Curling Club for the summer carts.  They are currently available on Skip and have some incredible home made food. The burgers are incredible and the fries are some of the best I've had even after riding in a Skip car to get here. 

Last day of the season is April 8th and the menu starts being reduced April 1st as supplies run out and aren't replenished.

Their SOKO burger is a charity burger and in March $3 from every burger goes to Special Olympics.

hopefully we'll get a location here soon (albeit in the Ikea end of town)

This along with Jeannie's cake are the worst most over rated "Winnipeg" things that older people rave about.

so I finally gave Wendy's French Toast sticks a try and well, they're good but I prefer my french toast to be buttery not sweet

[iHeart]

so after a weeklong delay I finally got to try a pizza hut melt

 

I tried a pepperoni one, it's actually smaller than actual size, in fact I'm not even filled up now (it should really be a side or an appetizer) it was that light, but maybe that's a good thing which is saying alot because back when they still had the P'Zone it filled me up. It's a combination of crunchy and chewy, I'll definitely order one again (the chicken bacon ranch one looks good)

they don't do that, but it's the type of thing I expect the sweet and salty concessions people to do

I have to say, for $12.95 that's good value.

those filets look more grilled than fried....how did they not ever have a grilled option at least that would be a bit healthier (and yeah I notice the Mad Magazine website in that pic)
