Hot dogs? But a feast of Chicken wings wow! Lotsa food !

Where are we today? 
Stratford Ontario
    Another great sleep and George actually slept in this morning until 7 am, a very rare experience, guess he was tired.  Well he was up and at it shortly after greeted by the friendly smiling nursing staff here and on with his day.

The italics bold right below in this posting were typed in by George early in the day before he tired out too much.

     We are expecting a delivery of their awesome chicken wings from Plattsville later today from our favourite restaurant/Tavern in Plattsville,  the Trail's Edge Tavern . They have excellent food but I have fallen in love with their amazing chicken wings, I am sure the the best I have ever had! And after a comment the other day on my blog,  got a message from the owners Marion and Daughter Lyndsay that they would bring some right here! A 30 minute drive. We have known them for years when Lyndsay used to figure skate with my daughter Jessica when I had my restaurant way back in the 1990's.
this be the place, if you are ever in Plattsville drop by
 for a bite you will not regret it
     After a few laps around here in my wheel chair Suzie arrived and we enjoyed a wonderful day together.
    The other day watching a TV show a family camping were enjoying hot dogs. I sent Suzie to the kitchen for a hot dog. (Hmm no hot dogs?? !) Well talking to the cook yesterday he said today's lunch special hot dogs, Ya hoo! how is that for service? So he brought me 2 loaded hot dogs just he way I love them.

Me and Marion plus a feast of wings, salad and conversation
homemade short breads
 and gingerbread or desert awesome 
      The rest of this posting will be finished by Suzie.
breakfast the other morning
 Yesterday's mid morning breakfast, pancake with maple syrup and peanut butter.
last nights supper stuffed mushroom,
 peas and roast potatoes
  His usual breakfast about 6 am.
 Today he got his hot dogs with all the fixings. Enjoyed them immensely.Soup fo Suzie.
We got surprise visitors today, Murray and Muriel. The had previously owned Nith River Campground near New Hamburg. During our early years, we went to their campground to dump our tanks.
Great conversation catching up on each others lives.

Then of course, what George was waiting for. Marion Shantz arrived with chicken wings, salad, celery, carrots, hot,  suicide sauce and cookies. What a feast we had. I think she got more wings than she had originally ordered. Everything was eaten up except for the cookies they for later. We did have a taste of course. Another great visit.
We had another great day.

  1. If all that good food isn't fattening you up and making you feel so much better, then you have to take charge in the kitchen. Wonderful to be loved by so many people and enjoying all those visits. I wonder that you even have time to write some of the post. Take it easy and enjoy the love shown to you by all your friends.

  2. Great to have so many friends taking time from their busy Holiday schedules to stop by and visit. The chicken wings look great, did George go for the 'suicide sauce'? I used to have peanut butter on pancakes, brings make memories. Gotta know was there peanut butter on the 'loaded' hot dogs?

  15. You certainly have made some wonderful friends over the years. You guys mention your favorite wings on the blog and the owner delivers them to you personally and does not forget the suicide sauce that says a lot about who you are. Suzie you said, another great day at the end and it certainly does sound exactly like that. As always you are in our thoughts and prayers.
