Francis and I went down to the Stampede grounds for date night last night. We took in some traditional stampede fare...mini donuts, greasy pizza, chili cheese fries, and chips-on-a-stick! I'll admit I got that last one purely because I thought it looked photo worthy. They literally take a whole potato, slice it accordion style, spread it apart on a stick and drop it in the fryer. Was it the best $5 potato I ever had? Not really, but it looked cool!
The newest Stampede fare was - get this - a donut burger. A burger made in a maple glazed donut instead of a bun. Not appealing as far as I'm concerned! Francis however was intrigued, but in the end didn't partake.
We went to the Enmax Ice Show at the Stampede Corral. A definite crowd pleaser. Admission is free once you're on the grounds. It's a 40 minute high energy show featuring Canada's elite skating stars and cirque style acrobats, accompanied by fantastic live rock 'n roll performances. Highly recommend it! Of course my favourite part was seeing Jamie Sale and David Pelletier skate. We were so close to the action. Most of my pics were too blurry because they were moving so fast, but I got a couple decent shots.

Of course we wondered through the booths at the Roundup Center, and managed to find ways to spend money...
The Zoku Quick Pop Maker is going to be a hit with Marissa for sure. You keep the little pop maker in the freezer and take it out any time, add your ingredients, and 7 minutes later you have a popsicle! You can use your own more healthy juices and yogurts and make neat designs by layering and using slices of fruit. All kinds of fun. On tomorrow's agenda...creamsicles!
this is fantastic, and the girls look awesome in their stampede gear - Merna
