  • Being from Canada, I can tell you that poutine is by far what I miss most about it. That's not even an insult. I went up for a trip in October when I was about 5 months pregnant, so I ate a poutine everyday I was there. We are going back next weekend for a high school friend's wedding, but this time I'm only allowing myself one. I could easily gain every pound I've lost right back on a 3 day trip if I'm not careful.

  • Wow, cycling 100 miles - did you do that too, or was it just Sara? I didn't know you had it in you. Maybe someday you'll join us for a great ride in Australia (350 miles in a week). It's a great way to see the country (well, a very small part of a very big country, but nicer than a car, anyway).
