Maple Sunrise

This is just a quick entry leading up to an incident I found humorous.  It was the night before Dirty Donkey and I had planned to check out the Kyiv Ukrainian pavilion for Folklorama.  Tyla was hosting and she invited her friends to attend.  Roni had made reservations for us, Rui, Marlene and George.  I did not cook my usual pre race spaghetti like in the past and decided to get my carb load in the form of perogies.  I got the adult meal which included 3 perogies, 3 cabbage rolls, kubasa, a pickle and an imported beer.  I also ordered a side of 6 perogies and was given 3 more from Roni and Rui who ordered extra.  As we ate, the show began.  It was an entertaining show with the crazy dancers and some singers and more crazy dancers.

Afterwards we cleared out, we decided to check out a second show, the Canadien-Francais pavilion.  By then, I was craving something sweet.  I ended up getting a farlouche, which is a white cake topped with whipped cream and caramel.  I picked it up from the serving area, paid the cashier and dropped it off at our table.  I then needed a bevie.  The sign had something called a Maple Sunset.  So I walked up to the bar and asked the server what a Maple Sunset was.  She then said she prefers the Maple Sunrise and explained that the Sunset was a shot of whiskey, maple syrup with Pepsi and the Sunrise was the same, except ginger ale rather than Pepsi.  She served it to me and advised that I stir it properly before drinking.

Following suit as I did with the desert, I walked to the 2 cashiers with my $5 in hand and placed my drink on the counter.  "This is a Maple Sunrise", I stated
The girl then asked "how was it?"
I said "not sure, I haven't tried it yet"
Girl: "well try it then and let me know how you like it"
Me: "I have to stir it first", stirred it and sipped it.  "Mmm, it's delicious"
Girl: "It's tasty, it's one of my favorites"
I waited a bit expecting to pay, but there was a short awkward silence.
Guy cashier "Do you need anything else?"
Me: "I'm here to pay for the drink"
Girl: "Oh, how did you get it?"
Me: "The girl gave it to me" as I pointed at the bartender.
Guy: "Really?"
Then it dawned on me and I said: "Oh, was I supposed to pay for it first and give her a ticket?"
Guy "Yes, but at least you're honest", and we had a laugh.

I then paid for the drink, thanked them and went back to my seat to enjoy the tasty beverage and desert.  The rest of the show was good.  A variety of dancing and singing.  Some reminded me of Stomp the Yard, while others were mid evil like dancing or river dance tap dancing. 

NB - I sure hope I'm not mixing up the names of the two drinks.  Pardon me if I'm wrong, I don't remember.
