Episode 10!
Music: Livin’ on a Prayer by Bon Jovi
Our final diner review! And again it’s not really a diner, but you simply cannot stop in Montreal without visiting Schwartz’s.
The Diner Dash is drawing to a close, and for our penultimate diner review we stopped by La Belle Province for some steamies and poutine.
Episode 9!
With special thanks to David, Maki, Jolan and Aiko for the warm welcome to Sherbrooke.

Hi everyone! Finally some of the video from Christmas is ready, this is our special cooking episode starring my mother Micheline and Geoff’s mother Pat. Micheline (Mimi) gives us her recipe for tourtiere, and we get to watch Pat as she makes her very delicious stuffing.
You’ll notice that this video isn’t as slick as normal, that’s because I edited this myself in iMovie and don’t really know what I’m doing. So no soundtrack to this, we’ll have a proper video from Geoff up very soon.

Geoff half remembered a very good cafe he had eaten at once in Quebec a year ago, unfortunately after much wandering through the icy streets we were unable to find it. Running out of time we opted for the nearest cafe.

Although we intended to post right through Christmas day it proved to be more difficult than anticipated to find time to process photos, edit video, and write blog posts. I guess that’s probably not a surprise for anyone else, but I think we thought we had 35 hour days to play with or something.
In lieu of our regular diner related programming I’m going to post something about the meal we had for Christmas eve.
