quirky food
not sure what it is, or even if they do know what it is,
it’s been cooked or presented in a way that’s unfamiliar to them.
~~~~~
Perhaps Black Forest Cake, is not really a quirky food,
however, I had no idea that it would be filled
with layers of cream.
The first time someone told us about Beaver Tails
I imagined lots of beavers minus a big fat tail.
It wasn’t until we were up on Grouse Mountain
that I noticed the lack of tail less beavers.
Signage was still advertising Beaver Tails
for consumption though.
It reminded me of a week or so earlier,
after a 14 hour flight from Brisbane we were
directed ‘…go past Tim Hortons…’
in the Vancouver airport.
At least I could envision a Beaver Tail…but
a Tim Horton had me stumped.
One was a tasty pastry while the
other served good coffee.

chopped off leaving a smooth table leg
