While Buffalo wings are now a ubiquitous app all over the country, not every regional food goes national. What cuisine from YOUR region do you most want to share with the country/world?

I *can* make it at home, but I feel like you can empathize with homemade whatever never tasting the same or scratching the same itch as your favourite brands recipe.

I'm a Quebecer stuck living elsewhere in Canada and I am *always* mad that cretons are not sold in the rest of the country. It's a pork-based spread that's not like paté, and it's not like liverwurst, it's kinda like rillettes? It's unique, local, and delicious, a breakfast fave.

Everyone knows about Montreal smoked meat sandwiches, but smoked meat *spaghetti* is a classic treat locals know but tourists don't. It's exactly what it sounds like, spaghetti with red sauce that has chopped smoked meat in it. Fancy or groundbreaking? Nope. Delicious? You bet.

Ever since I first heard Artoo sing, I am 100% convinced that blue jay whisper song is what R2D2's sounds are based on. I mean come on, he's even got a blue jay colour scheme! 😄

Was telling a friend about my last trip to the Calgary Zoo and so this photo had to resurface. Easily my favourite shot from that visit. 😂

For how ubiquitous and cheap they are to buy as started plants in the spring, I'm kinda boggled by how apparently VERY SPECIFIC they are to grow. 😂

So far the instructions are:
- need total darkness and cool soil to germinate
- seed in 1/8" soil and needs bright light to germinate
- scatter on soil, cover lightly with loose soil, bright light
- scatter in peat, cover lightly with peat, light needs not specified
- need total darkness and cool soil to germinate
- seed in 1/8" soil and needs bright light to germinate
- scatter on soil, cover lightly with loose soil, bright light
- scatter in peat, cover lightly with peat, light needs not specified

This year I'm trying pansies from seed (I buy them started every year anyways so why not give it a whirl) and so far I'm 4/4 on each packet having different germination instructions. Are they really all *that* different? 😂🌱

Aznavour's intro translates to asking the audience not to sing along (even though this is technically a singalong) but to *sing together*, because singing together is bonding and fraternity, it is warmth, it is love.

Did you know that "Beyond the Sea" is a lyrical reworking of "La Mer" written by Charles Trenet and made famous by Charles Aznavour? I love this performance that opens with Aznavour inviting the audience not to sing along but to sing *together*. youtu.be/YZtzAbwgkgU?...
