Bobby Darin
—Don't Rain On My Parade
This song simply sums up how I’m feeling these days. Also adding a little Bobby Darin to your day will guarantee to put a spring in you step.
Get ready for me, love,
‘Cause I’m a “comer,”
I simply gotta march,
My heart’s a drummer.
Don’t bring around a cloud
To rain on my parade!
The Fuzz Box: Donair Review
As most of you know, I hail from the Maritime city, Fredericton. Being a native Frederictonian I grew up eating donairs. Lots of donairs. Lots. What’s a donair you may be asking yourself (said dough-nair)? Only the best gift Turkey ever gave to the world! It’s a delicious pita wrap that contains: Shaved seasoned stacked beef, onions, tomatoes and a delicious sweet (and slightly tangy) mouth wateghhhtteerrrrrruhhh… excuse me. Mouth watering sauce. NOW, I’ve been living in Toronto for the past few years and it is near impossible to find a decent donair. So I heard about this new place that just opened on the Danforth called The Fuzz Box. They claim to make “authentic Halifax donairs.” HA! laughed the Andrew. The restaurant has only been open 3 weeks today and on its grand opening the owner told me he sold out of meat. Pretty impressive and it seems the Maritimers came out of the woodwork. It’s also worth noting that the owner is from Halifax and seemed passionate about donairs. This sounded like a pretty safe bet that I’d get a good to good+ donair. I was one happy bean. So I bought the 1/2 pound donair which came to over 10$. That’s a bit pricey if you ask me, but I suppose anything you can only get on the east coast is worth the extra few bucks. I got the thing home and the bag was dripping, which is a good sign because these things are supposed to be greasy, saucy and messy.
The review:
It looked like a donair, it smelled like a donair and it tasted like a donair! Well… kind of. The sauce was bang on, perfect.. exactly what I wanted it to be. In fact the sauce is 70% of what makes a donair and donair. However, the meat was sub par. Actually, it was terrible. Very dry, void of seasoning and fell apart in ground beef like chunks. The onions and tomatoes were there…I think. They barely put any on!
Conclusion:
If you want a real donair get your butt to New Brunswick and go to Greco, King of Donairs, New England Pizza or the dudes at the Boyce Farmers Market. The Fuzz Box delivers in a pinch but I wouldn’t blow 10 bucks on it again. In all my years of eating donairs I’d give it a 2 out of 5. At least you can buy the sauce from them for 75 cents!

The Draw America Challenge! (by AndrewBravener)
I’m no photographer, but I love taking pictures with my 35mm. Getting back a roll of film is kinda like Christmas!
This is what I see every time I open my wallet.
Last one. Get naked.
Excuse me while I flood your dashboard with Junior Senior gifs i’m making. There’s one for EVERYBODY!
I love me some Derek Hess. Would love to own some of his art one day or have it on my skin.

Usually when things have gone this far people tend to disappear, no one would surprise me unless you do.
I can tell there’s something goin’ on, hours seem to disappear, everyone is leaving i’m still with you.
