So I had to go to my old college to get it. So I took the train, the metro and the bus yesterday morning.
Collège Jean de Brébeuf
I spent many a lunch hour sitting on those steps.
The place was like a fortress. I had to go through a gard station, state my business and get a visitor's pass. Since all the school killings it is the norm.
I tried to take some pics inside but the lighting was shit and I couldn't hang around too long because I could see people were suspicious of me.
The whole thing took less than 10 minutes, after while looking for a bathroom, I took the opportunity to check the place out. I studied in Arts & Communications. Nothing in that department had changed, same paint, same linoleum, same furniture as 28 years ago. Freaky!
After I took the bus back to the Metro and I realize that it was near some ethic grocery stores ! PARTY!
This I saw in a vietnamese grocery. Talk about fusion! Mexican corn tostadas,chinese cookies and italian biscottis.
Noodles
This is probably one of the worst wine ever produced. I didn't even know it was still being produced.It's sweet,pink and bubbly. Back in the day, a lot of people I knew would drink copious quantities of this and proceed to be sick. Graduation anyone?
Of course no trip to Montreal is complete without a stop at the Salvation Army...
I really liked this chair, but we have no room, sniff!
A tableful of sewing machines
An Ice-O-Matic ice crusher (everybody needs one NOT)
A blender. I don't know what happened to that little guy but part of the insides were coming out from the front!
I love picking up Xmas stuff in January because nobody wants it, hehehe!
A cute aluminum tea pot for the store
And a cool oj pitcher for the store as well.
Needless to say Pyrex was no where to be seen...oh well! Better luck next time!

Oh my goodness- I may have to buy that OJ pitcher from you- I have the matching glasses! I'm in the process of getting my etsy store up too!
You had a fun adventure and of course add thrifting and its really good! Love that chair also and the OJ pitcher and the teapot...awesome!
That OJ pitcher is so cute, sort of a fancy version of an anchor hocking one I have. Something about serving juice in a pretty pitcher that just makes your day start out brighter! :)
Good luck for the job!
My mom always has to have a Baby Duck for her wedding anniversary. I tought they had stop making it!
I should not tell her about it, I would have to go buy some.
Did you stop at the Army on Sherbrook? We go take a look when I visit my in-laws. We should go have a coffee together before you start working!
Have a nice day,
OMG! I thought Baby Duck was dead in the water! (Bad pun, I know!) People who knew nothing about wine (like a lot of us back in the day) thought it was the epitome of style to drink Baby Duck. LOL!
