For Hilda Gerbrandt of Winkler, comfort food is about more than just taste; it’s about the memories it brings back. “The first time I had Sloppy Joes was at my friend’s birthday party,” Gerbrandt reminisced. “Growing up with traditional Mennonite dishes like potatoes and schmauntfat, my taste buds had never experienced anything like it.” That first bite was transformative. “It was so good. I skipped the games at the party just to wait for a second helping!”

While Leland Klassen got a later start in comedy than others, he loved it the second he started. 

"I actually didn't start doing comedy until after I got married. Then I had all of this material," Klassen said laughing. "I started getting on stages and loved it, so I kept doing it."

Klassen got his start when a friend called and asked him to fill in after another comedian cancelled. "We hear you're a comedian, and I didn't know what I was getting into."
