The Battle of the Food Trucks

This weekend the main street in downtown Titusville was closed to traffic to accommodate the Battle of the Food Trucks. It is an annual event- food trucks come to Titusville from all over the state and beyond to compete for all kinds of awards.
The cooler weather did not seem to keep too many people away but I noticed when I lined up at the ice cream food truck for dessert all the people ahead of me were Canadian! We are a tough group, eh!!

How neighbourly!

As we have been getting to know our neighbours over the past few months everyone thought it would be fun to go out for dinner together and last night we finally did it.
And since a few were unable to join us this time we may just need to do it again!

Gators in all sizes


I know many of you will have seen the pictures and videos of this huge humpbacked gator ( I think he's humpbacked because he swallowed a volkswagon!) on the news and may be worried about our safety. But he is not in our neck of the woods at all.



This little guy is the one living close to us. By comparison we probably have nothing to worry about!





By the way, Olivier won another $50 at BINGO this week. But for some reason he is more excited about the dime he has waiting for him at home after winning a bet with John ( Sens vs. Leafs). Of course they decided to go double or nothing on the next game so who knows how this will end....

Think of the savings!

I'm sure that anyone who knows me has heard me say that down here it's not about what you spend but what you save. So I was very excited to learn that an easy way to save money every time we eat out is to stop drinking ice tea and order a beer instead! And it's not just this restaurant - it's almost every restaurant we go to. And since we tend to eat out often just think of the savings!! Only one problem - I hate the taste of beer. 





Cheap beer, high priced tea!
