Aside from just driving across the prairies (numerous times), I have only spent about 3 weeks in Manitoba (Winnipeg in January mostly) so I guess I have not spent enough time there (or perhaps it was just not 'peanut' season?) since I have never even heard of Manitoba-style boiled peanuts. Or boiled peanuts as being a 'thing' anywhere in Canada for that matter.

 

The first time I ever tried boiled peanuts was when I moved to NC and took side trips to shop in Greenville SC, and along the highway that leads there I succumbed to one of the many homemade signs that advertise them at roadside stands and stopped. This may be sacrilege to many of you in the south but I wasn't that enamoured of them. They are interesting and ok but didn't leave me craving more.

 

The Manitoba peanuts you get in Ecuador, Panaderia, sound much more delightful! Perhaps you could get into the export business and if they are that good, I would be happy to market them here! I could probably get them to go over well as I know the locals here have sweet tooths!

 

p.s. Those breads you made for the Church are to die for! You are so talented and hard-working.
