But of course........

Here are some norms that might never take off in Canada - clearly with our young age as a nation we are in the wrong here so please take down the following notes for future changes or, you know, not......
1. Egg on pizza - in the middle where the slices meet a soft cooked fried looking egg should reside - you have to ask for your pizza without egg to get the canadian version - aparently this is the italian way. They are closer - they must know.
2. Lapin everything - pate, raw and stripped in butcher counters, pies, steaks, in canned stew like pork and beans in the section of the grocery store that Helene does not shop in (te KD section) - for those of you who don't know this is rabbit. Them's good eatin'.
3. Cream and more of it - on pasta so it looks like cereal, in mashed potatoes so you can slurp them from a bowl and eat with a spoon
4. 2 hour meals from pate to coffee - we just finished eating lunch at 430 and now at nine will eat crepes for dinner. The holy trinity is Pain (Bread our Father), Fromage (cheese - 365 different kinds- the Son) et Vin (Wine, the holy ghost)
5. Full use of the animal - I asked for a recipe and now will walk around Canada looking for the throat of the porc. Well, I asked.
