Four more days can’t you see
It’s getting to be that time for me!

kodi Aug 11th, 2007 03:12 AM

Yippeeee,
You're down to three!

toedtoes Aug 11th, 2007 11:14 AM

Three more days plain as that
Those veggie burgers gonna make me fat!

kodi Aug 12th, 2007 06:41 AM

Yoo Hoo!!
Down to two!!

Ok, so I'm not a good poet!

Have a great time!...it won't be the veggie burgers that make you fat.. it will be the beer, butter tarts... Smarties....on and on!!!!


toedtoes Aug 12th, 2007 09:11 AM

Two more days down that road
Till I’m singin’ with Willie in Peterborough

That's probably true Kodi! My last trip, I literally ate one veggie burger every day of the 18 day trip (except one day when I went to Chez Piggy in Kingston) and lost 5 lbs.

kodi Aug 12th, 2007 12:02 PM

Well, I suppose in your honour, I'll have to try a Harvey's veggie burger. I'm not much into veggies, but I hear they are good.
Maybe you'll have to try a Lick's veggie burger too.


toedtoes Aug 12th, 2007 01:04 PM

I bet you'll like it. It's not a "garden burger" where they mush up a bunch of vegetables into a patty shape. They're soy based and meant to be similar in taste and texture to a real hamburger patty. And if you doubt they really gave you a veggie burger, look at the shape of the patty. Their veggie burgers are shaped like a flower.

I haven't tried a Lick's. I'll check it out.

kodi Aug 12th, 2007 08:46 PM

NOw I can say it, but you can't (yet).
Down to ONE!
Isn't that FUN!
To the plane you must RUN.

toedtoes Aug 12th, 2007 09:32 PM

Well, actually... it's exactly 1 day, 23 hours and 53 minutes until my flight leaves, so I have only a day left!!!

One day left, I just gotta
Have myself a blast in good ole’ Ottawa

SallyCanuck Aug 13th, 2007 02:34 PM

Unfortunately, I can't rhyme but looking forward to meeting you in two weeks time - say that sorta rhymes - at mini-GTG.

Re veggie burgers at Harvey's, a friend's friend, a vegetarian, ordered one and then took it back because she was convinced they'd given her meat in error - so try one whoever it is that hasn't.


toedtoes Aug 13th, 2007 02:55 PM

I think you can rhyme! :)

I'm so looking forward to the mini-GTG and getting to meet you all in person.

I met a nice young woman in Kingston a couple years ago who told me about the shape of the patty - she was certain they were "duping" her also until they explained the difference.

klam_chowder Aug 13th, 2007 04:55 PM

One more day until Parliament Hill,
A river cruise also fits the bill.

Make it a fabulous trip toedtoes,
At the gtg anything goes!!

I'm heading elsewhere - same day as you,
I look forward to your trip review!

Enjoy-la!
