The end is near. Or at least it better be if I plan to survive my first year of grad school.
On the food front. We went to One of a Kind again! The spring show was last weekend, and my roommate and I loaded up of food, more so then any other year.
Me:
Asiago and garlic shortbread cookies by Coach House
Maple fudge by Bruce County Nut and Fudge Co.
Olive Hummus and herbed pita chips by Sun Sweet Catering
Salmon pate (sooooooooooooo good) by The Fishery
Her:
Garlic spread, also by Sun Sweet Catering. They do great stuff, 8 different kinds of hummus too.
Salmon pate, see above.
Hot pepper oil (which is actualy hot in Carribean standards) by the Wicked Gourmet
Mango salsa by I'll have to get to you on that one... sorry!
The lovely ladies from Bbj were there this year too! Got myself a lovely Greta Garbo magnet, one of Audrey Hepburn and my roommate got a unicorn dancing on a rainbow that says 'Super Gay!' It's pretty fabulous. I bought a beautiful screen print of antique cameras, and when I'm back at home with the thing in front of me, I'll tell you who made it. Sometime the OofaK website isn't as helpful as it needs to be.
I also pass by this booth every year, and have had to stop myself from buying her stuff recently. I have 4-5 books already that have nothing in them, so until I start writing in them, I can't buy anymore. We'll see how long that lasts. I have two plans for books that I already have of hers.
Plan a) a food journal. I eat fairly well health wise, but my portion control has never been good. Maybe the tedium of writing it all down might aid me in keeping track and realizing how much I put back.
Plan b), and very much actually going to happen is my journal for Paris. We are required to produce a journal of the happenings and trips we take on the Paris course, and for the rough notes I carry around with me, I'm thinking one of her journals would be perfect! They're spiral bound so I can roll them over to be just one side and are compact enough to be light in the purse, in which space will fast become a premium. I have one that's title is "Mutiny in the Bay." Seems perfect.
Speaking of Paris: 28 days to go!
On a separate note, April is National Grilled Cheese Month... sure, whatever, works for me! Need to get some stuff to celebrate with!
