The Royal Winter Fair 2025!

        Yesterday my dad and I went to the Royal Winter Fair @ Exhibition Place in Toronto as it's an annual event and tradition that we do each and every year. Basicially the same thing this year with similar businesses promoting but we did a pile of taste testing as you know by our reels on Facebook, X, Instagram and TikTok. Was neat to interact with them too and especially when it came to the Old Cheddar, Turkey the dips and the Oyster Mushrooms. 

       We walked around for a while then came back  to the show floor to look around and we did that several times and the animals came towards the end with the cows and the usual, Angus Beef cattle, Holstein, Short Horn and a few Long Horn Cows which we haven't seen in ages since I was a lot younger. Of course the goats being silly trying to eat the plastic and I was scratching it's head while it was distracted by the plastic tie down that was on the fence. I lost how many goats were standing up against the fence but was funny in a way. We had supper which I have a review to come out later on but then my dad got coffee and two cookies and we ended up getting another for free which was nice of them, not necessary but nice. We finally went to the Horse Palace and enjoyed our treats and wondered about looking at some of the horses and got talking to a horse and her ears were moving a lot so she liked that we stopped to see her and a champion too as she won a competition, not sure if it was the Royal or another but that will be the post for now, I will talk to you guys in a couple of hours for the food review.

Royal Winter Fair 2025 tomorrow!

               Officially I will be heading to the 102nd Royal Agricultural Winter Fair at Exhibition Place in Toronto! It is that time of the year where I am going to the Royal once again. I always enjoy going to this event and honestly I thought I'd never get to go back to the event after Covid-19 but I am glad I got to. I've been going for the past I think 2 years since 2023 and this year was a bit tough with the bad weather. However, my dad and I are going on Friday rain or shine and it's not very long walk from the GO to the entrance of the Royal.

         I will try and do a couple of videos here and there and a lot of pictures taken during the event but it will be have the camera hidden as always and I kind of like being unknown at some of these events. I didn't realize that this year has gone so fast but I am excited to share my adventure on Saturday with a special blog post but as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

This Weekend Will be Busy!

           This weekend will be a busy one for us as we will be editing so much ti is just unreal how much content we have to edit, put together and have ready at the helm for November, December and January. I am also working on the shorts/reels for the episodes and one of the episodes doesn't have video as I carelessly erased the entire video version of the podcast so now I have 3 episodes video and 1 without but what can you do and at least I have an actual audio only.

Either way we will continue to get all of the things completed in a timely fashion but first is all the podcasts are to be done and today will be recording the podcast for Sunday and the first and important thing after I get the Motivational Fridays done. Anyways that is today's post and as always I will talk to you all on Monday, have a great weekend!

Last Day of Recording with Larry for a while!

            Today marks our last day in the studio together recording a podcast together till after he moves away up north which our studio will be very, very quiet without him present with laughter and jokes. I'm sure I may see him one more time before and maybe a lunch, I do not know but if not we will make the best out of our last day not just recording but hanging out.  I am not sure what 2 weeks tomorrow brings so we are acting like it is our last. 

             I will make sure to capture on camera a lot of things that we do throughout the day and post it over the weekend for you guys plus this weekend will be a busy one but will talk tomorrow about that. However we will have video footage and pictures to share this weekend and it will be a busy weekend with content on our social medias. Anyways we will make it a great day together and capture the moment the final time we meet and say so long for now but remember what I said anything is possible for the start of November but that will be the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Gaming Updates....

            Well I will start with the bad news... I am done with Grocery Store Simulator...  The lag is unreal and unplayable so I am moving and big shoutout to our new fans who is a mod for us on stream has helped us out greatly with Super Market Simulator and we are getting closer to being debt free and I am going to actually grind this weekend on the game see if I can get this debt down to bare minimum. 

           Minecraft: I am currently working on the bowl of the actual new rink and also been working on the lights on the other rink so I am kind of back and forth between the two but I do want to finish the main rink. However I hit a bit of a bump in the road and have lowered the ice so that is the work in progress and I worked on it this morning before working on other things in preparation for the Corner Gas podcast this morning with Bob. Anyways that is the blog for today and as always talk tomorrow!

Ganster Cheese-- Gangster Cheeseburger Grilled Cheese!

              Last week, I was on a bit of a journey up to Uxbridge, Ontario to see what was going on with the trains from the former York-Durham Railway and go for a long 45 minute walk out on the abandoned railway portion which the tracks have been pulled up a long time ago. Was a nice walk and I actually got a good amount of steps in when it came to the walk.

             Afterwards we went to Gangster Cheese for a Grilled Cheese sandwich but completely different from what we are mostly use to. I have a Cheeseburger Grilled cheeseburger with hamburger meet aka Beef with fries. The sandwich was delicious and it actually works with ground beef that was in there. I really enjoyed the sandwich and the fries were perfect, crispy and lightly salted as too much salt on fries isn't very appetizing but these were done just perfect. The staff were super friendly and helpful and our food came to us in a timely matter. We will be back in the very nearby future. That is the post for today and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!
