Maple Syrup Fest up in this Cow Town




Ah horse and buggy and vehicle town, depending on what day of the week it is. Just lift your nose, you'll know- My father

This weekend i spent it home with my siblings and my mom in cow town.
They had there big pancake maple syrup festival on Saturday and wouldn't let me miss it.
our little towns population grow an extra 80 thousand too line up in the cold to get a aunt Jamima pancake with some authentic local syrup.
My family decided to skip the lines and just make our own at home complete with sausage fruit and coffee :)
We battled the crowed to get at the stalls full of hand made crafts,toys, jewelery and the continuous line up of tasty treats such at maple syrup candies in the shape of maple leafs,apple fritters or pork pull on a bun
I picked up some pure syrup for my roommate.



My favorite stall was one done by Rare Funk which shows off crafts and art and clothing made my Canadian artisans.
they had buttons,t-shirts,dresses, accessories, jewelry,aprons,and lots of other cool and unique finds.
Sadly the was now yarn in sight but we did find maple burgers, maple sausage and popcorn mixed with marshmallows on a waffle cone :p

And I ran in to Dalton McGuinty went right up to him not knowing who his was but recognizingly his face, I stared at him weirdly he smiling awkwardly and said hello as he moved pass. I turned around to see him getting his picture taken only to realize that i had just bumped into the Premier of Ontario !
