Here are some of my random musings connected to TEAL. In particular, I'm interested in English for Academic Purposes and teacher-assessed pathways to higher education.

I should be putting the finishing touches on my presentation for tomorrow, but I just had to write about my breakfast this morning. I went to a local Winnipeg institution: Sal's. It was so great. I was just walking along Portage Avenue when I saw a sign that advertised a $2.99 breakfast. It was too good to be true, so I went through the doors and I felt like I had entered a time warp. It was like a restaurant out of my childhood: vinyl booths, waitresses in uniforms and cheap prices! For $2.99 I could have two eggs any style, toast, hashbrowns, and sausages. I haven't had a breakfast that cheap since about 1999 at the Lido Cafe in Kensington, Calgary (another of my favourite greasy spoons). Anyway, the breakfast was great. I am a bit of a breakfast connoisseur, and it had the perfect proportion of grease and butter to complement the eggs and toast. Yum. Anyway, if you are in Winnipeg make sure you try out this restaurant. It's a classic!

Oh, don't talk about breakfast... *sigh* so hungry! I love breakfast food, and for that price, I'd love it even more!
i like CHEAP and good food. i hope there is that kind of restaurant in south africa as well.
It is interesting that the price of many cheap things in canada is *.99.
Well, you really spent a good time in Winnipeg!
