Michelle Nichols has a secret.
No, no, not that secret. Another one. I wouldn’t dare tell that one.
Michelle is from Drake, Saskatchewan.
Drake may be known for many things, but I know it for two:
- Home base for the Wiens clan.
- World headquarters for Drake Meat Processors, the best smoked farmer sausage factory on earth!
Michelle gave me 2 coils of farmer sausage for my birthday this year, and we had the first one this week.
All OAFE aspirants be warned: this particular OAFE Award really raises the bar on future awards … the sausage is that good.
I will be writing Drake Meats a letter suggesting that I become their exclusive Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec distributor. I may never send it, but I’m going to write it.
Off to Radiohead in Toronto!
Shelly - Yes, Drake Sausage is the best in the universe.
Although Drake does not have a bar, a post office, a high school, or anywhere to buy milk on a sunday or monday, it does have a webpage: http://www.drake.ca. You can read all exciting Drake news there.
The genealogy portion is somewhat creepy in that it contains pictures of all the gravestones in the cemetary (this dude was OLD: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~drakesk/ns/vogt_peter_susanna.jpg) Guess you need ways to occupy your time when there is no bar.
