SUNSET GRILL FOR A FRIDAY VACATION

Barb needed a vacation day. So today and Monday she is off. A nice start to a 4 day weekend was a nice breakfast at Sunset Grill at Dufferin and Major Mackenzie-Vaughan. I had the eggs over lightly with peameal bacon and white toast- no butter. Barb had her usual- The French Connection- scramble eggs, home fries, 4 sausages and French toast. It seems like a lot but she never finishes it but takes at least 1/2 home to eat off and on for the rest of the day. So when it is said it is an all day breakfast, well for Barb it really is!

GRANPA CELEBRATES AN ANNIVERSARY WEEK EATING OUT

Barb likes to take the week in May that coincides with our anniversary as a vacation week.. It is a good time to relax, work in the garden and to be outside. Of course Barb likes to go out for meals too.

So with some gift cards to use, Red Lobster was the destination for our Anniversary Lunch May 15th. Just north of Steeles on Yonge Street, an easy jaunt from Richmond Hill.

We ordered the new dish with lobster and shrimps on rice.

Barb tired the new zucchini and squash as her side. I had the salad.
With another gift card in hand, we decided to go to breakfast at Cora's today May 16th. We went to the one at Elgin Mills and Yonge.

A Canadian franchise of delicious breakfast food.
Perusing the menu- what to have?

So my regular-Canadian peameal bacon, eggs over lightly, home fries and toast with jam. Barb had the western omelette with cheese, ham, peppers with a side of home fries as well as toast. Of course lots of coffee! Staycations are nice because a short ride and back home!

GRANPA TOOK A BREAK ON OUR CANADIAN FATHER'S DAY

Father's Day started actually on Saturday with my Italian t-shirt as a gift from my daughter and family. I could wear it for the game. Sunday was breakfast at the Sunset Grill which included my favourite one- peameal bacon with eggs sunny side up. And brown toast with jam. Of course lots of coffee. At an outdoor table, it gave ample room for the little grandchildren to move around. The baby chomped on a piece of toast near me. A perfect time for Granpa! No cooking as Barb made some penne with the ragu sauce I had made on the Thursday. Granpa loves to cook but  not on Father's Day!

GRANPA HAS A BREAK ON SUNDAYS

Barb likes to cook on Sundays. So breakfast was scrambled eggs, bacon and whole wheat  toast along with an espresso coffee. Sometimes it is nice for the cook to have a break. Wonder what she will make for dinner today?
