He bought all my food, paid ah- give me my lunch and- and we usually always had supper before we come home too. And ah he lived in Fenelon-Falls but his farm was right out where I live now. On the farm that I live now.

Speaker: Used to hav-- yup, Strawberry-Suppers, Foul-Suppers and they're still on, but there's a lot of things that we don't do anymore. Interviewer: What's a Strawberry-Supper? Speaker: Well United-Church puts a Strawberry-Supper on and it is um, it's a hot and cold buffet. Um, like twelve-bucks I think it is- it'll cost yeah.

And they have a lot of strawberries and whipped-cream and strawberry-shortcake and-all-that for dessert so and then the Anglican-Church they have a- a foul-supper which is turkey and all the trimmings and the- you'll have to get Doug to bring you up here these times you-know!

Um you-know somedays I barely have enough time to even talk to my dad on the phone to see what we're gonna do for supper 'cause it's just, you-know my two lines are going I'm getting two-hundred-and-fifty emails and it's just- it's overwhelming somedays.

Well he offered to co-- he offered to come and um have some supper and then wash my hair so I though that was a great idea. And then he cracked the egg over my head and I- then I had some fun words for him.

Yeah we come home and he sits there and meows, meows, meows, wants your attention, he doesn't want supper, he wants your attention? And then he rolls over the floor couple times until you pick up and pet him.

Most time you spend time at the beach. So you pretty much wake up make a huge breakfast, go to the beach the whole day, so you wouldn't- pre-- pretty much skip lunch, you'd take snacks or-whatever, and then ah go back to your campsite for supper.

So they'd come in and they- we'd sit at the beach all day and then they'd come back to our campsite for supper. Like they wouldn't come until probly lunch time and then they'd eat their lunch on the beach, and then go back to our place and then have um campfire. And then they'd leave.

Interviewer: Okay so you- so now some people open their present early Christmas-morning. Speaker: Well we do that within our own families. Interviewer: Okay. Speaker: But then with Mom's, it's like with the brothers and sisters and the kids, and we open after supper. Interviewer: Okay so everybody gets to go there after that. Speaker: Yeah. Yeah.

Um I-don't-know just sit around with her I think I just remember sitting around with her, having supper with her, or her fridge squeaks, so she'd say, "Oh it's the mouse behind the fridge." Like it's funny the things that you remember 'cause I was nine when she died, so I-mean I don't remember tons about her, but I do remember those things.

... the United is a hundred and ten. The- each year they ha-- the United-Church celebrated they're hundred-and-ten years in Strawberry-Supper in the end of June and the Anglican-Church on the twenty-fourth of May have an anniversary dinner, a supper and the Anglican-Church has a turkey dinner on Thanksgiving Sunday.

We'd stay here all day. And we'd always go home for supper 'cause if Dad- Dad would be home for supper and you had to get home for that. Kind-of report in and- and ah- and then we'd come back down here at night.

Speaker: And actually there wasn't too much time for you-know- time you get in and had supper it was just about bed-time. Interviewer: So it's- it- you spend a lot of time on your own then.

And ah but other than that by time you get in got cleaned up had a coke (laughs) ah it was supper time. And you'd have time for a game of cards too.

It was like split shift so you would work the morning you'd have a few hours off and the afternoon you'd have to come back for supper. So my mom and dad were really good about running me to work and running me back and um.

I just find families stay closer together than in the city. And we often have like Sunday suppers an-- I don't know if that's something that they do elsewhere or not but we often have um with Moe's side of the family Sunday night we always go to somebody's house for supper and we just take turns.

Yeah I usually see my parents usually every night and um, my mom's- as you-know she's a big family women so we usually have supper once a week or- you-know jut get together and hangout. Usually every weekend.

So I got home from having the blood test and the phone was ringing it was the hospital. "Don't have any supper and get back down here by seven-o'clock." And I said, "That sounds like an operation." And she says, "Yes, you're full of white blood cells."

... a lot of people have retired to the village and ah I don't know a lot of people. I go back for anything you-know any of the church suppers I go back for and ah- and-stuff-like-that but there's a lot of strange faces. Yes.

... I was supposed to stay home- and- and wait for my mother to get home 'cause she was- she was working so- or start supper or-something you-know. Oh gosh yeah. So, I didn't go too far out that time like you-know but that was it.
