I'd not consumed too many bagels from Timmy's to acquire a taste (and subsequently miss) them - but the one you described sounds very awesome! I imagine just being back visiting is quite a motivator to get awake, get up and get going; seeing things and people. :) I'd of gone the route of extra large too, though, haha. :)

I did a quick search and found the following: if you end up accidentally closing a tab in Firefox, you can press Shift+Control+T and that will open the lost tab, as well as restore any text that had been typed in that tab's fields. I've also read that there are Firefox plugins/addons that can help with saving your progress, but the one thing I find easiest is to hit Control+C to copy my text during writing long texts, as well as right before I actually press a button to submit. If the text is very, very important, I will actually type it up in a word processor first. It should be obvious that I've made plenty of mistakes in order to have thought up or looked into various safety checks! lol :) *big hug!*

Noah's Bagels > Timmy's Bagels

I'm just saying. Timmy's bagels and doughnuts are #######, but their coffee is great :)

I've never had Noah's bagels but they sound good. I wouldn't say Timmy's bagels are ####### but they're edible. ####### is what you find in the grocery store bread section. I've had some amazing bagels in the Jewish bakeries/restaurants. I'd love to find a great bagel maker near my new home.

Timmy Topic!! lol!! I'm off to RI Late tonight!! So will have my 2--XL Timmies a day while I'm in RI!! Much prefer Dunkins bagels over tim horton bagels!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

I as well. Excuse me while I get misty-eyed! I always hated Woodbridge for being full of stereotypical people in my age bracket, poor public transit, et cetera... Oh, how wonderful Woodbridge seems now. The year after I move away, the public transit is overhauled, expansion all around! All of the recreation centers there, but none here whatsoever! Night and day in comparison. Woodbridge is getting so expensive, I doubt I could ever afford to buy a home there if for whatever reason we could or did move back. I miss the development I grew up in - having sidewalks and quiet roads (aside from ginos speeding once in a while at night!) I miss having a corner store within walking distance, and actually being in a safe enough area to feel comfortable walking. There are no parks here. Ugh... Night and day. :(

My parents are still there, so I'll be in the 'bridge when I visit. And yes, it has changed a LOT in the past few years.

I have memories of the young people hanging out at the donut shops or driving up & down 7 blaring their gino beats out of their suped up civics!

***I wasn't one of those "cool" poeple, lol.***

What I really miss is having a good veal-on-a-bun from some Italian place(Molisana). Can't find anything good here.

*Whew* you guys have been talking a lot!! :lol: Not enough time for me to back track and see what you're all saying...but...there once was a time Timmie's made their doughnuts at store level!! YUM!! My late husband and I used to go there a lot. Double Doubles, and what he always like to call them: a fat pill! :lol:

But then...they stopped doing that..and now have them shipped in.. *sigh*....The coffee is still great though! :)

The funny thing about Tim Hortons no longer making the donuts in the stores------They changed how they did it for months before announcing it to the public, and no 1 complained!! BUT once they heard they were no longer "fresh" then they stated they sucked,lol

This has happened to me a couple of times in the PM section. I once wrote a really long, detailed response to Mikey78 and then it got eaten and all he got was an angry, wrote you a long reply, it got eaten, am too annoyed to do it again. Later, LGG.

I have since redeemed myself. What I do know is a ALT + A and then an ALT+C so that I have a copy to past if I happen to lose it. I do this in my email accounts too to prevent the rage of loss of arising. :D

OMG. I wrote a huge response to these posts in the "Fast Reply" section and then hit the "Add Reply" button above it (thinking it was like the "Submit Post" button and I lost it all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :crying:

I'll come back when I can handle rewriting it without any underlying anger. :lol:
