Sadly, will still be in BC unless some extraordinary "client event" in Calgary comes up and they need immediate tax counselling.....
Would love to join all you folks and meet calgaryboy. Can someone remind me what his last day in Calgary is? (Maybe I can sneak back to Alberta before he goes....?)
I wonder if the European Bakery and Deli in Kensington would have it? They might know of a restaurant who serves it anyway.
Nothing, nothing, would make me happier than to have a plate of Calgaryboy's Mom's goulash. We should have really bought her a ticket to come and make food for us. Her goulash is reason enough to go to southern Czech. Yeah CB is a cool guy, he'll drive you around to some awesome sites, but I'd make a special trip just for the goulash.
So hungry right now!
Will tell mom today. That will make her happy :-)

Finally get to meet Petr this time. Last time we were standing next to eachother on the C-Train and I didn't realize that until after I got off. May have to dust off the Ramo Jersey again

Anyone welcome, maybe just send a PM to let me know numbers. Hopefully all those who helped get him here can attend, and anyone who wants to meet up and talk Flames.
Will try to make as much central and Eastern European food as I can. Can't have it all ready at once, maybe I will just keep pumping out food for a few hours.
Tentative menu.
From Germany: schnitzel, spaetzle, knudel, cucumber salat, curry wurst, bratwurst, and Nurnberger Sausages.
Denmark: Frikadelle
Hungary: maybe Paprikas Csirke (at the least some paprika chicken of my own), Hungarian salad.
Slovakia: Bryndzove Halusky. One of my favourite things! It has bacon on it, be happy.
Czech/Moravian: Vlassky salad (Petr won't love it as it is my own take, but suck it up!)
Vepro Knedlo Zelo (one of Petr's favs that I will likely ruin! It is pork, dumplings and cabbage)
For dessert will make my two favourites: Poffertjes (little Dutch pancake thingys with icing sugar)
and Chocolate chip banana bread liberally covered in Custard...and more bananas...and more chocolate.
Of course there will also be veggies, cheese and meats.
Ill PM you closer to the date, I'm sure I can bring something as well.

Petr figures he will be jet lagged / tired, so has decided to miss this first practice. That has been his experience the last two trips, very tired the first morning.
Good for me as my son will be continuing his dominance in Calgary South Atom at 1230 that day. Playoffs round 2, Go Wolves.
Not that it sounds like it matters but the Flames contacted me to let me know the practice on the 10th is moved to Winsport (due to the concert).
Moustache (Graeme), my son Jaxon (4) and I (Jeremy) will be making the trip from Kelowna bright and early Saturday AM. Looking forward to seeing you guys at the party and getting a chance to meet a bunch of fellow Flames fans!
Go Flames Go!
