Seen Around

Today's edition of Seen Around will definitely shock some readers and raise some highbrows!

The first pictures were taken at Ogilvy's one of Montreal's fancy pants departement store...They were selling the $145 panettone for Xmas last year....


First ordinary hair clips, sparkly but it is a hair clip, right?


Yes you saw that right, $207 !!! $207 for a hair clip....For $207, I would buy a LOT of groceries,
make a car payment, buy 20 $10 long sleeve t-shirts, Xmas shop....But I will not buy a hair clip!

 One could also get small hair clips....


A steal at $27!!!

Now for the second batch of pictures... Lay's Canada have a yearly contest, where folks can dream up
chip flavors, we can try them , vote for them and the winner gets a piece of the profits of that flavor.

Brace yourselves, here are this year's offerings

                                          Jalapeno Mac'n'cheese

                                          Cinnamon Bun (????)

                                          Tzatziki

                                          Bacon poutine

Now I have no idea why someone would dream up cinnamon bun flavored chips....But if I find a small bag I'd be willing to try all 4. I bet Tzatziki is my fave!

Last year I tried Bacon Perogies and it was soooo salty, my hands looked like bouquets of sausages!

I can already see my Dad's face as he rolls his eyes...He always finds my love of strange flavors , well strange!

So good night and I don't want to hear that someone bought one of those hair clips! LOL

Catching up

I'm glad to read that I'm not the only one having issues with Blogger....

Many thanks to Six Balloons fr the HTML tip, it made my day!

So here goes...

So this is the new temp location for La Queue de Cheval...
Beautiful isn't it? With all the snow and lights.
 
They had to move because the partners had a falling out and the one who owned the name moved out.
The found a new location but are in the progress of renovating it.
So here they are in this historic building that used to house a bar and party place the 1234.
It got its liquor license suspended last year...which is really bad for a bar.
 
So now it is the super expensive La Queue de Cheval 
 
Like I wrote, I've blogged about this place before.
 
It's the crazy meat prices place!
 
 
 
And these
 
 
Porterhouse anyone?
 
I think I'll wait for a sale and buy a nice Rib steak and enjoy it at home...
 
Be well and see you soon!
