When I go to a different state – and especially another country I always try to taste the local cuisine. In this case we sat down for lunch and my throat was hurting so I ordered some tea. They bring sugar and creamer with your hot tea. It reminded me of my trip to Europe with my parents when I was 13. I went for afternoon tea with my Aunt Linda and fell in love with hot tea with sugar and creamer. Happy memories! I am a goober so I took a picture of it!
Don't knock it till ya try it!
I also try to get to a store and pick up some candy that we might not have where I live. (Plus candy is really easy to pack in a suitcase and get across borders!) So when hubby and I went to Montreal for a day we had to stop at a grocery store and check out the candy isle. Check out the goodies we picked up!
Some choc covered cherries, yummy Coffee Crisp, and lil gummie piggies
We also found this lil treasure at the grocery store. There is a song by a band called the Barenaked Ladies. They are from Canada and they have a song called “If I Had a Million Dollars”. In the song they say “we wouldn’t have to eat Kraft Dinner”. Well I always thought they called Kraft mac n cheese that to be silly in the song. Nope, in Canada they call it Kraft Dinner – so we had to buy some! 
On the way back to the good ole U S of A we stopped at the Duty Free shop and picked up more candy!
OH and a pic with this other candy I found at the grocery store….
The eggs are milk chocolate and they have lil toys inside. After I eat one I will take a pic of the toy and put it up for you
Here is the candy we bought in Vermont. They have a schnazzy brand called Lake Champlain (those tiny candy bars cost $3.99 each) and then we found Dan’s Chocolates (they are mini bars too and were also $3.99 each). Then there is the pure maple sugar candy that we found at the airport ($4.99!) and I am so glad I bought it because I forgot to pack our lil jug of maple syrup we bought in one of the big suitcases and it got confiscated at the security checkpoint. Bye-bye $9.99 bottle….and they have to throw it away they can’t take it home or donate it to a homeless shelter. So wasteful! (and so stupid on my part!)
$30 bucks worth of candy sitting there. I will eat it s l o w l y !
