My friends and I would leave our elementary school at lunch time (this was when kids were allowed to do such a thing) and walk almost a mile to a little mom & pop diner called MG's. They had the absolute BEST poutine in the whole world! Unfortunalty, on our visits up there in recent years we've found out they've closed down :( Thanks for the recipe, sounds like it will bring back fond memories!

I make most of the things you write about. Everything is yummy! I am from Louisiana, southern Louisiana and we have a deli/ gas station that serves what we call gravy cheese fries. They use thick cut fries and the gravy from the roast beef used to make roast beef poboys. Then it is just topped with your choice of cheese. My favorite is american. They are very good. I just thought I'd share this with everyone. Kennie. Hey Christy,

The best part was seeing her reaction to snow :) Had me smiling for months afterwards.

It is fries with dressing (turkey stuffing), and gravy. Deeelish! Being from Nova Scotia, I ate a lot of poutine in my high school days.

Ya get anxious, palms sweat, can't speak clearly, I didnt know I had it til I hit the floor and woke up about 3 minutes later, off to the doctor where he confirmed it. While I dont use Splenda (dont like the aftertaste) I do keep OJ in the house and eat and set times so as not to throw everything off kilter. Hmm...wonder how many other readers here have that in common. Christy,

I don't know one person or their granny who has made their own. When we were kids most schools would place orders for lamingtons as a way of fundraising. I remember having my mum take my order form to her work so she could get her co-workers to order boxes of lamingtons. I miss those lamingtons, I don't know if they do fundraising anymore. :(<br/> <br/>Although I probably do have a recipe so I will find it for you over the weekend. <br/>I can't believe you watch McLeod's Daughters! I don't even watch the show myself!! LOL Christy, no-one makes their own lamingtons here! lol We all buy them. I don’t know one person or their granny who has made their own.
