we love you galen...


so if you watch tv or listen to radio - you know who galen weston is. or at least you've seen/heard him...though supserstore never does clarify WHO galen is.
but from the first galen weston ad i saw, i was sold on the product (i can't even remember what it was now..maybe the cloth bags). he's the man. whatever he endorses, i seem to want to buy. does anyone else feel this way?


well the moment i saw galen's endorsement of apple crisp (the apples come from the orchard of two brothers who then make the crisp with their grandmother's recipe...so they say), i knew i had to try it. i could get my money back if i didn't like it! so thursday night, liz and i were stopping at superstore for milk and i said, "we need to get the apple crisp." and she too had seen the ads and had been sold. so we got the low fat version hoping our love would still be guaranteed. but there was no need...


it was fantastic. sure, you could make it yourself for way less than $5.99 but if you've been to my house lately for crisp (i've tried it twice in the three weeks), you'd be willing to pay the $5.99. for real. so it was a great little dessert - i was glad galen didn't let me down.


what will he come out with next?

antivirus?

galen weston is one of/the owner of Superstore/loblaws, I think. I read about him in a magazine. Maybe it's his family that owns it, but he runs it? something along those lines.

Can`t wait to make you all apple crisp and try to compete with Galen, although I don`t think I would convince anyone...
I still miss you a lot, Bec, and I am getting more excited by the day to see you again! (94 days away!) I hope you`re doing well, and that you`re taking good care of your little salmon, as I hear you are! Love and best wishes to you from Osaka!

I too love the ad with the apple growing/crisp baking brothers. They are all so sincere! I haven't tried the product, but maybe I'll have too...?
love Bonnie
