May I ask you something? Have you ever had a Tim Horton's donut?

they are not frozen when you eat them... :P

I didn't even know they were frozen and reheated unitl I read it in this thread and I couldn't tell the difference... they taste fresh...

Marilyn...Karen told me to quit being a goober, so I'm gonna stop yankin your chain... ;)

You'll find when I post, I make light of most any subject, it's just my character...

To answer your question, yes I've had a Timmy's donut, and can ask you a question?

Do you know the difference between a Timmy's donut and a hockey puck?

You can at least eat a hockey puck.... :lol:

*shakes her head* :no:

David, David, David. Sheesh! Pack up your hockey pucks already!! She likes TH, n' you like KK....each of you bring your own donut to the forum picnic n sit on opposite sides of the blanket! :lol:

*Lowers his head in pseudo shame, as he slowly stuffs one after another of fresh, hot and delicious KK donuts into his mouth while sitting across from Marilyn on the other side of the picnic blankey.... :P

Sorry, I couldn't help my silly ### self!!!!!

hehehe...hockey puck...now that's good.

The last Timmy's donut I had was mighty fine eating. It was a Canadian Maple I believe (if that's the right name). It was soft and warm...oooey gooey with all that maple frosting on it...ooooo, its making me sooo hungry right now.

I think robins donuts has the better pastries, i just dont care for their coffee.

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

BC is definitely Western Canada (heck, it's the WESTERNMOST province), while MB is still considered Western as it's part of the Prairie Provinces.

NS breaks that definition as it's far-eastern.

Robin's Donuts are in Barrie, Ont. I don't know if they're anywhere else in the province. As far as the TH vs KK donut question goes... my vote is definitely on the Timmie's side. KK donuts are just balloons of skinny, fried dough that are drowned in sugar syrup. Frozen or fresh, at least Timmie donuts are "cake" donuts. By the way, the recipe for the donuts on the US side of the border in TH are not the same recipes as the Canadian ones. The American ones have much more sugar in them, like everything else down here.

I'm with you on that one -- KK's have this weird metallic, overly sugary, mushy taste and consistency to them. yuck.

KarenCee -- the blueberry fritters have blueberries throughout the dough, and a shot of blueberry jammy goodness in the middle...then covered in a sugar glaze.......yummmmmy! You MUST try one while you are visiting Joel! :yes:
