Not too long ago we decided to go out, but not having much cash on hand we had to be frugal.
We decided to go and see Mike at our favorite chip truck by Giant Tiger. The girl had her favorite poutine (she says Mike makes the best) and I had an order of fries with stinky malt vinegar and salt. Mike has foodie fans from as far away as Kansas and they come to him every year!
Having Mike's fries for lunch is a special thing but having a great location to chow down those delectables is even better. We headed for a nearby park on the edge of the Ottawa River.
This is right in our home town. Isn't it something?
I often eat my lunch down here when the kids go to school. It relaxes me, helps me be still so I can listen to what God wants me to hear. And when I leave I am refreshed.
Even watching the moored boats rock in the water is soothing.
Walks on the boardwalk are always interesting.
Even after a short lunch I feel like I have been on vacation.
Don't get me wrong. I like fancy restaurants. But when my daughter and I can sit back, enjoy the food, the scenery and share what is on our hearts... this can't be beat.
Hi Debbie Hope you check your comments. I can't seem to return your email, it keeps bouncing back?? The early time for eggs is OK with me. See you later.
