Then it was off to get groceries in for the weekend. It's Sound of Music Festival this weekend and I don't want to have to drive any where near downtown! The carnival rides are already set up, along with the Port-a-Potties and we could see them constructing the stages as we drove by Spencer Smith Park. We're a block away so I'm sure it will make for an "interesting" weekend. I'm working all weekend, so I don't know if I'll be able to partake in any of the festivities.
On Saturday night, I'll be watching the hockey game anyway! Woo-Hoo!
We were almost sure that the Stanely Cup was going to be awarded to the Carolina Hurricanes last night, but Edmonton came out and scored 16 seconds into the game. It was back and forth from there and it was a very good game (except for the excessive
amount of penalties). The game went into overtime and Fernando Pisani who is from Edmonton, scored short-handed on a breakaway just 3 and a half minutes into overtime. And get this - Pisani's breakaway goal was the first overtime, shorthanded goal in Stanley Cup Final history. He's the hero in Edmonton today. If you click this link you'll be able to watch a clip of the goal. It will probably only be there for a short while since it's on the home page of the Oilers website. Because of that goal, my plans for Saturday night have been secured.Since I haven't been home much, there wasn't much cooking going on. But here's something fun. Jim brought home some new snacks he found.
When Jim showed me these, I said "Ooo, we can spell bad words." These pretzels are great TV-watching munchies and fun to eat.

I really want to go to a music festival...in a bad way. It's been too long!
Hope to see you in vegginout soon!
Happy Weekend!
Well, Harmonia, you know my team is the Leafs. They didn't even make it to the playoffs this year. They sucked reeeeaaallll bad. So, hockey rules (unofficial anyway) are that if your team is out, you cheer for the last Canadian team standing - even if that includes Montreal, I guess. ;o) If no Canadian teams are left, then whomever you like. If Edmonton doesn't win, then Carolina is more than deserving. Rod Brind'amour has been outstanding. He's been playing for a long time and I would like to see him get his ring. Also, Carolina has never won before. Edmonton has won numerous times already. (Think back to Gretzky days). Either way, I won't be TOO disappointed. I'll only be disappointed that there's no more hockey for 3 1/2 months!
Neat-o alphabet pretzels - how fun!
Sorry, not following the hockey stuff ever since they took the Minnesota North Stars away from us. The MN Wild are cool and all, but after the strike, kinda boring.

Those pretzels look so fun. My daughter will love them. I'm going to look for them for a fun snack.
