Most of my adventure involved food as I spent most of my time doing homework and scanning 100+ family photos for a special project I was working on. I hope you enjoy a glimpse into my rad summer (and don't get too hungry!).
We started our trip in Horseshoe Bay. I'd been wanting to go to this cute new restaurant, Olive and Anchor, and now was the perfect time. We decided to share the Crispy Cod Po'boy Sandwich. It was delicious (and look at that salad!).
Because their dessert menu looked irresistible we also decided to share their Brandy-raisin bread pudding. It was DELICIOUS, as you can probably see.
When we arrived, we did some grocery shopping at the local Safeway. My sister didn't put her produce into plastic bags (as is our habit) even though I told her that it probably isn't common practice over there. Sure enough, at the checkout, they bagged each of the fruits individually. Oh well!
The next day we went to the Comox Valley Farmer's Market. They had a sweet little band playing while we were there. It was a great market!
At the market I found the most amazing gingerbread cookie. A neon squid! How could I resist. He was tasty, too.
We also bought this enormous tomato. It was so big that it cost $3!
On our way home, I spotted this guy. I can't decide if this is the best or worst summer job.
Finally back in Vancouver after a great trip that was much too short, my sister and I indulged in a summer favourite, rocket popsicles and a walk to Kits Beach.
Hopefully Vancouver will continue to have blissful summer weather!
Thank you so much for sharing, Sam. I'm glad you showed us so much food! That's my idea of an awesome vacation. Be sure to stop by Sam's blog and say hi and check out her great Etsy shop, too! I've featured one of her items in my Friday Favourites before and can't wait to get my hands on one of her awesome leather pouches!
