Treasures!

Lots of good finds at the Sussex Flea Market this year! Here I am rocking my new wicker purse! Jon is looking dapper in his fav Flea Market shirt!

Cruising, Saint John version!

This was actually a beautiful sunny day. As the fog rolled in, a Disney cruise ship left the harbour. It honked "When you wish upon a star" as it disappeared into the fog.

Sussex Flea Market!

Jon and I at the annual sussex flea market!

Olive Oil Tasting!

Jon and I stopped in at the new olive oil tasting bar in SJ. Sooo good! We got a few bottles to try at home:
-light extra virgin
-basalmic
-butter EVOO (for popcorn!)
-herb infused (for cooking)
-strawberry basalmic for Jon's dressings

Uptown Tour Continues...

Pain de canelle!!

Naner Topper!!

After searching for years, I finally found a Banana Topper. This is the best kitchen gadget ever invented. Sometimes you only want half a banana... So what happens to the other half? It goes brown and mushy and you throw that sh$z out is what! Not anymore!! Banana topper clamps the end of the banana and ta-da! Saved for another snack! Perfect for smoothies....because we all know a banana will take over a smoothy if you let it.

Fish Fry!

Dad cooked up a freshly deep fried batch of haddock and french fries in honour of the London Olympic Games! So far we have enjoyed Shepard's Pie and Traditional Fish and Chips in honour of the Games!

Practice makes perfect!!

Here's dad with the kayak in the pool. Yup. He was practicing some safety moves like getting back in the kayake when it tips. This is a lot harder then you would think... it involves a lot of strength and balance. Plus lots of dumps in the water to make you appreciate it. Barrel rolls are for another day...

Resemblance?
