You can only find Butter Tarts in Canada. Sometimes, if you are very fortunate, someone who is visiting from Ontario, arrives with a large box of home made Butter Tarts. Whoopee. After dinner, we dig in and everyone eats at least two. Some folks have been rumored to have eaten three.
Most Canadians do not know that Canada is the only place where you can eat Butter Tarts. But it is true. The tarts we ate tonight were perfect, all gooey and runny, just like Ken likes them to be. The closest we come in the US is pecan tarts but they are not nearly as good as Butter Tarts. Tonight you had to eat the tarts on a plate with a fork, they were so wet. What a treat.
Doreen made these tarts and brought them from Ontario. The four of them arrived around 6:00. They could have found us at 5:00 but they got lost. Sheldon and Ruth and Don and Doreen have come for a visit to the farm. They are staying in the farm house, but eating with us at the Hill House. These contacts go back a long time. Both Sheldon and Ruth recognized me in the picture taken when I was 15, and wearing my Salvation Army uniform. Most friends now do not recognize it as being me. These old Salvation Army contacts are very long lasting and we are delighted to have the four visit us at the farm, especially when they brought Butter Tarts!!
