very year my family rent a cottage on Pigeon Lake near Bobcaygeon, Ont. It is usually a week of relaxation and eating. Swimming, fishing, napping, book readin’ and most importantly snacking. We stop at the grocery in town and load up. Cookies, marshmallows and chips. In fact I actually I met a chip I didn’t like last year. The cheeseburger flavoured Dorito is the worst chip ever made. I pushed through with the chips that we bought. I really enjoy the all-dressed chip. If you close your eyes and imagine a flavour, you can taste just that flavour. Anyways I love the cottage snacking. It is some of the best snacking around. I did not partake this year. No cookies although they were sitting there all week. No chips. No Smores. It was tough but I think with Operation 180 being so public, it is tough to be a pig.
Bobcaygeon is the home of Kawartha Dairy. You can go straight to the dairy and get ice cream. They have like a hundred flavours. Most of which, I enjoy. I tend to lean towards Death by Chocolate (ominous and prophetical) and Chocolate Peanut Butter. This year I didn’t have a single scoop of ice cream. I was thinking that there are ice cream shops in Welland that I could go to everyday. What makes the ice cream at the cottage so good that you have to a scoop everyday you are up there? Nothing. It is good ice cream but they have good ice cream here. I guess when you go on vacation, the regular rules don’t apply. You would never go to the ice cream shop everyday while at home.
I didn’t workout much. I went for a run with my sister-in-law. (Observation #33) There was lots of swimming in the lake. The batteries got recharged after some intense working out. I’ve got a long way to go so it was good to relax.
