I would not have guessed cheese fries was actually cheese pizza with no sauce. It does look good, though! As for Downton...I loved the many happy endings in the last episode. Like you, there were a couple of seasons I don't care to see again...when the Abbey was a hospital, and the one where Bates was charged with murdering his wife. BUT - I fell in love the with story and characters and will watch them all again one day. I can't say I have one favorite.Terri Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15333024343069943295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-22500166707792523782016-03-08T23:18:38.458-06:002016-03-08T23:18:38.458-06:00Cheese fries are new to me.

I wondered if they would be similar to poutine - the French Canadian dish that's made its way across Canada. <br />Photos of the grandkids are so great, and I sympathize with you about trying to get photos in focus. They move so quickly!<br />Downton - I always had a soft spot for Mary. Under all those prickles was a heart of gold. I loved the way she orchestrated the dinner for Edith and her love.

Cheese curds everywhere, though!!!! <br />Downton was fantastic. I loved how he seemingly wrapped all the loose ends. For Mary and Edith to become friends was the best<br />surprise of all. It was always wonderful to have Downton to look forward to right after the holiday season, in the dead of winter, on every Sunday night for at least a few months. We will miss it so!!

I have learned something new...yes, I thought that cheese fries were fries drizzled with melted cheese, which is a culinary "treat" that one can find in our corner. Perhaps the strips are nice and tidy and help with portion control.<br /><br />You loved the dog best? Hahahahaha...course you did! =D I was so preoccupied with trying to "lose" the narrator that I must watch the final episode again to know what really went on. There are so many wonderful characters that I would have a difficult time choosing a favorite. Carson might have made the short list, but he was pretty frustrating this season. <br /><br />Oh is there a little girl anywhere who does not love "wearing" lace curtains? So cute! Glad that you had a nice visit. <br /><br />Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-60329112390791398322016-03-08T01:42:03.818-06:002016-03-08T01:42:03.818-06:00I never would have guessed what cheese fries were!...I never would have guessed what cheese fries were!

Now poutine, that bizarre Canadian invention of fries with cheese curds has never done anything for me but the younger generation finds it to their liking.<br />The comment of your grands twirling until dizzy reminded me of ours at that age, silly but brought lots of laughs. I always had to do a reverse for ring around the rosy the second time. lol<br />Downton Abbey tied things up pretty well and didn't leave us guessing about any relationships. Mrs. Patmore will be seeing more of Mr. Mason but who knew Barrow would end up as the head butler. ;-) We can start having company for dinner now on Sunday nights because I don't have to keep it open to watch the previous week and then new episode of DA anymore.
