A Poutine! Hum, crispy fries, tasty gravy, and a mess of cheese melted on top…That’s a poutine!
Yesterday we took a drive out Guess Rd and headed towards Honey’s Restaurant for lunch.
Not elegant dinning, not fast food but I’d put them in the home cooked category.
It’s a fun place and definitely comfortable, clean and relaxing.
However Jennifer was offered a booth to sit at and well being 81/2 months along you can’t sit at a booth.
So we had a chair pulled up for her at the end of the booth.
Jennifer and I were there for the Poutine!
Grandpa ordered the lunch time special and a small Mountain Dew, this is a small, Ah excuse me!
Do you remember this slogan?
I’d walk a mile for a Camel
If you remember this slogan maybe you can remember these in all the stores and restaurants also.
A real working cigarette machine….I wanted to put my quarters in it just to see it work.
It has been rainy for the past few days here in North Carolina, but better than the weather everyone is getting back home in PEI, -3 and snowing.
Really, I’m missing the snow, (cough, cough)
Time to get working on the next scrapbooking border. I’m trying to get it done before we head to Savannah Georgia next week to see a dear friend. I’m excited and still have to go on line and find places to see and things to do yet. June has come to the Island for the past number of years and last year due to a number of out of control reasons she didn’t make it. I missed her terribly this past summer at the tea room, she is always a cool night’s breeze when she walks through the door, I love her.
Join me for Tea on Tuesday, Please
xoxo Cindy

I am totally surprised that they have poutine in the restaurants down there! Was it good? I don’t like it. Too fattening and greasy for me. I do remember cigarette machines though. Something we don’t see up here anymore. It’s going down to -18 tonight and will only get up to -16 tomorrow. Brrrrrr.
Ha ha ha, no they don’t have poutine, Jennifer had to call it out. I ordered it as it was a good choice for this restaurant compared to a lot others. I like fries and gravy but they don’t like me so I had a handful and passed them on.
I only tried poutine once and it was good. I’m not allowed to eat it now though; my cholesterol won’t let me. Too bad because every once in a while I really do get a hankering for it.
Never heard of poutine – - but definitely remember cigarette machines. 50 cents when I started smoking – now I imagine you’d need a ton of quarters!
