A Friendship Rekindled!

I spotted a Great Grey Owl on the road heading to Great Falls today!  You can just see it flying into the bush.



It's awesome to once again visit with Brucene and Herb too in their lovely home!  It's probably been 15 plus years from our first meeting on a flight to Toronto, with sporadic Christmas card updates between their Germany/Canada stays.  It felt like we visited just last month!

The first couple hours we chatted with Brucene while she prepared an early supper while Herb worked.  Then he joined us and prepared the pork schnitzel and she seared/baked them up.  So 3ish we had this AWESOME meal together of schnitzel pork chops, roasted tiny potatoes, carrots/peas in white sauce with nutmeg, parsnips, chopped cucs/onions/tomatoes/parsley in white wine vinegar/walnut oil type of dressing and finished with a light n fluffy cheesecake with warm raspberry sauce!!!!  OH MY DELICIOUSNESS!!!!  And I'm asking for recipes for the veggies and dessert!  AND BOTH OF US received schnitzel to take home too!  What gracious friends and hosts!  I can't wait for when they're back here for the summer and we can visit once again.

I enjoyed this chuckle!

This fireplace is all granite stone from their property which were incorporated in the remodelling after the recent fire that gutted the interior.

Winnipeg River out front - very deep here! 

Edna, Brucene and I - thanks Herb for taking the picture.
