I do love crisps, although I have a thing for salt and vinegar, marmite and the wonderful worcester sauce flavour!<br />That shop that was a bowling alley is so brilliant.

I figured they were a Great Canadian Delicacy like Hawkins Cheezies and Coffee Crisp bars... By the way, they also make ketchup-flavoured chips, another Canadian thing that is highly underrated.<br /><br />This is a fabulous random collection. I think I'd like to stay at the Dragonfly as well (someone's been watching Gilmore Girls...). However, can you tell me what fried snack food goes by the name "bottle caps"? That was the one menu item that seems to have stumped me....<br /><br />Sounds like you had a great time, anyway. Were you still there when the "twin" hockey deals went down in the "twin cities"? :-)CitricSugarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580076318545974487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-527612360558538909.post-34136796387682245892012-07-19T16:46:01.107-07:002012-07-19T16:46:01.107-07:00I LOVE LOVE the serial quilter and sew plate!
