What a Beau-ty!
In my continuing quest to try new things, I picked up some Beau's All Natural beer made just outside Ottawa in Vankleek Hill. I'm no beer expert, but enjoyed it and it went well with the burgers after summer hockey. You won't find Beau's at the beer store, only the LCBO. My kids like it because there's a tractor on the label and call Daddy's newest beer "tractor juice".

Mike Fisher on your wall...
At the 2nd annual Charity for CHEO golf tournament there was a Mike Fisher framed signed jersey in the live auction. I promised the winner that if it got high enough I would throw in a bottle of Stuntman Stu Red Line Merlot, a Sens putter and free plug on Stuntman and the Shark. Local real estate agent Kevin Coady responded, paying $1900! Thanks Kevin and congrats to tournament organizers Spencer and Lisa Warren for selling out in only their 2nd year.

Mini Wheats, not so mini price
My kids love cereal. One of their favorites is Mini-Wheats and ever since Shreddies came up with their marketing genius of turning it around to a diamond shape, others have been trying to come up with something similar. Mini-Wheats has introduced "Little Bites" which are half the size. Cool idea and my kids ask for it every morning. Fine, you like the "Little Bites" and even though I try and convince them they're eating the same thing as the regular size, I still get "Daddy you're silly". What I don't understand is why Kellogg's charges the same price as the regular size when you're getting 95 grams less.Update - This was the price at Metro, while Loblaws and Walmart were selling at $3.99

Chill dude....
For years we've been putting limes in Corona (not sure why, I've heard 10 different reasons) and all of a sudden lime flavoured beer is the latest fad. At a recent golf tourney this was the most popular beer in the cart that day. I snapped this with my Blackberry to share with you. Please don't lick your screen, I know it looks good.

Great Big TREAT for breakfast...
Great Big Sea dropped by Stuntman and the Shark this morning which was really cool because many bands don't like to get up for early interviews. Two members of GBS (Allan Doyle, Bob Hallett) talked about their new album "Safe Upon The Shore" and what fans can expect when they hit the stage tonight at Bluesfest. You might want to ride the red rocket or take a cab to this show, as Allan said this morning "Our fans like to be refreshed during our shows".

Zero to sixty in.....
One of my favorite events is the Ottawa Ferrari Festival (June18-20) and you're invited to come see cars perform in the demonstration zone on Carling/Preston Saturday at 2pm. Bring your camera and watch these cars go from 0-60 in seconds! The best part, it's free to but you have to listen to my commentary on site.
Here's a video I made from last year's demo zone:

Ottawa at Home, then GQ...
Since People magazine keeps snubbing me from their sexiest man alive cover, I have to thank Ottawa at Home magazine. No, they didn't want my looks, but featured the "Stuntman Stu Red Line Merlot" in their latest issue. For details on how to have it at your next event, click on the wine bottle on the left hand side of my blog.

Goaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal.......
The arrival of the World Cup has my wife has busy downloading all of her favorite soccer stars half naked in underwear ads. The response from her friends on Facebook has been sickening. You women are so shallow. So for you ladies who need your fix, on the left you will see some soccer stars, and yours truly on the right. To me, there's no difference.
Enjoy..

Brownie GOOD, Husband bad...
Before they knock down Lansdowne Park (who am I kidding..we'll still be debating the issue in 50 years) you have to get down to the Farmer's Market held every Sunday and try a brownie. There's tons of local vendors and while I haven't had a chance yet to sample from all of them, one got my attention.
Dolcibakeshop offers up Gluten free baked goods and while I don't have to worry about this dietary restriction many do, and finding foods made a certain way can be an issue. To be honest, when I shared the brownie with my son I was unaware of the way it was made, because it tasted so good. When I got home I raved about it to my wife who then asked for her piece. Needless to say, I received a husband FAIL that day, and will head back this Sunday for another piece (for the record, I did bring back a mini lemon loaf from Dolci and she loved it).

French Immersion 101....

Saw this on my drive home today. Have to give the guy credit, cause there was no way someone in Toronto would pick up on this.
Stu's note: If you skipped French class in high school you won't find this funny.

Which means more of this...and speaking of which, Mr. Ice Cream truck please find a new song. "Do your ears hang low" on a continuous loop gets a little annoying.
