Food, Glorious Food

While in the UK recently, we purchased last minute tickets to see the show "Oliver" in London. Given that we seem to have been eating way through the UK, the theme song "Food, Glorious Food" seemed appropriate. Actually, it was rather a case of the boys experimenting with foods they hadn't tasted before in Canada. Not necessarily healthy foods, but tasty!

We thought Tim Horton's had a huge assortment of donuts, but this vendor in Camden Market beat them!

Totally Decadent

Happy Mother's Day to all you others Mom's out there! Hope you're putting your feet up and having a relaxing day.

Last night I was teaching my 12 year old how to make wontons. We had some left over wonton wrappers and decided to fry them up and sprinkle them with sugar as a treat for dessert. I hardly ever fry food so this was kind of decadent in our household but tasted great!
