Sugaring Off!  Celebrated at a Montreal street festival

Cameron and I had a great time sampling traditional Quebecquois foods that are part of the annual "Sugaring Off", a time when people celebrate the maple sugar industry and have wholesome fun and great food.  Since Canada makes 3/4 of all the maple syrup in the world, the maple syrup industry is everywhere:  from the flag and sugar pie, to maple sugar ice cream and maple butter.... it is all celebrated and the maple things are delicious.  Here are some videos from the fun day we had at the street festival.



It turns out that Cameron and I both like Poutine, a traditional Quebecquois food that is even served in McDonalds.  It's got cheese, sausage, sauce and potatoes.






Our first time trying homemade maple sugar marshmellows!
