our next trip to Alberta is / Rocky Lane / It has a rural
community hall and a regional school / reunion

What will the ratio be between current and former
residents, I wonder.

It will be almost all school graduates and their families as the
school district runs half way to High Level to the west, Fort
Vermilion to the east and Lecrete to the south while the immediate
population of Rocky Lane is less than 50 people. The reunion
was all organized and promoted on Facebook. https://tinyurl.com/finding-rocky-lane

When your population density is that small, the
(perhaps constant) amount of civic pride is spread
among fewer residents, former residents, and adherents.
It was O. Henry or maybe Ellis Parker Butler who wrote
a comical story about a grand world traveler whose true
heart was really in some podunk town.

layers of phyllo pastry filled with [...] leek and sirene
(white cheese).

How lovely is that, not.

I think I would like it as I like puff pastry, leeks and most
cheese.

The cheese is in the feta family, so that lets
it out for me.

Title: Golden Crescent Rolls
Recipe by: Mike A.

Actually looks pretty decent, though the choice of flour
could be more imaginative.
