Away down south in the land of traitors…

Maritime Horrors is great, but for the same vibes as him I also watch Brick Immortar and Big Old Boats from time to time.

And if you’re into mode sky boats then Green Dot Aviation is your guy

I want to make a comment about poutine for Canada. A lot of places do poutine as “fries, cheese, gravy, done”, which never does it justice.

1. You have to use cheese curds, not anything else. A lot of places will use shredded cheese or mozzarella, and it never works out the same.

2. Bland fries = bland poutine. If your fries are just a normal russet potato with a bit of salt, it’ll probably be alright but not great. Some of the best poutines I’ve ever had have used seasoned potato wedges as a base, usually with “New Potatoes” (the variety name) instead of russets as the base.

3. Use more gravy. However much you think you’ll need, use more. Just trust me on this one.

I’d ask what some of her favourite moments were.

I found with my grandparents that they’d focus on the smaller things as they aged. Sure, they could talk about the major events but they actually liked talking about the little things.

My grandmother (who is best described as an eccentric matriarch) would tell stories about how she changed her general store to one ~10 km further away because the closer one “didn’t serve poor people” (she’d tell the full story of why every time).

She died at ~77. I can only imagine what moments she’d have in her heart if she had lived to 108.

I’ve been using mine since 2011, and I will continue using it for many years. I have an alternate one that I use in some cases (things that need a little more professionalism attached), but for everything else, I will forever be LordPassionFruit.

I also have never tasted passion fruit.
