BEAUTIFUL FORT MALDEN IS. IT’S
REMARKABLE AND BREATHTAKING. IT
REALLY IS. THANK YOU. IT IS IT
IS. SO TELL ME A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT THE HISTORY. IT ACTUALLY
DOES HAVE QUITE A CONNECTION TO
DETROIT WAS ACTUALLY CONSTRUCTED
HERE TO REPLACE FOR DETROIT WHEN
THE BRITISH HAD A FORTIFICATION
THERE, SO THAT WAS IN 17 96. AND
IT WAS USED DURING THE WAR OF 18
12. SO IT WAS CERTAINLY A
MEETING PLACE OF MAJOR GENERAL
ISAAC BROCK AND TO COME SEE AND
ESSENTIALLY IN PLANNING THE
ATTACK AND EVENTUAL CAPTURE
AFFORD DETROIT IN AUGUST OF 18
12, SO IT CERTAINLY IS QUITE A
LOT OF HISTORY HERE. CERTAINLY
WAR OF 18 12 AND REBELLIONS AS
WELL. THE REBELLIONS OF 18 37 SO

SHOCKING THAT THERE’S SO MUCH
HISTORY HERE. BUT I CAN ACTUALLY

YOU DON’T HAVE AN EXACT RECIPE

LIKE THIS? OKAY? US. IT’S LIKE
TURNING INTO KIND OF LIKE A
LITTLE DOUGH BOX. ALRIGHT THAT’S
ESSENTIALLY WHAT A TEA CAKE IS.
OKAY FRIED DOUGH. IT SOUNDS VERY
FANCY, THOUGH. IT DOES REALLY
ISN’T OKAY FOR THE FACT THAT
THERE WAS THE FIRST TIME IN THE
BRITISH ARMY THAT THEY ACTUALLY
