Breakfast - no, make that lunch - with Jeff

I took leave of our wonderful community recently to visit Toronto and have lunch with Jeff Hutcheson, whom I know needs no introduction for anyone in the KW area. He may be working in Toronto now on Canada AM, but we still consider Jeff our hometown sports and weather hero.

Did I mention Jeff is hosting our annual Celebrity Event honouring Lisa LaFlamme at Fed Hall on November 25th? I was meeting with him to go over details for the event.

I'm not sure who was more excited, myself or my 5 year old son, who squealed with delight when I pointed to Jeff on TV and said that was who I was meeting for lunch later that day.

Like many Canadians, every weekday morning my family watches Jeff and the rest of the Canada AM team while we eat breakfast and get ready to start our day. I have to admit, when I was younger I always wished we could be one of the families Jeff joined for breakfast in their home while hosting his segment of the show. I'm also particularly fond of the "things" Jeff finds on the internet to share with his viewers.

Back to Toronto... a colleague and I met Jeff at a sports restaurant, which I thought was very fitting. He is just as fun and easy-going in person as he is on TV. I can't give too much away about our discussion, but let's just say our upcoming celebrity event is one evening you do not want to miss! Remember, it's Friday November 25th at 7 p.m. at Fed Hall.
