Name of Food – Double smoked bacon wrapped cheese perogie skewer (it is indeed a long blurb!) Where to Buy – The Grill Cafe inside the Agriculture Building, which is right beside the Saddledome and these statues: What makes it worthwhile – Can I say that it was the bacon? Even though this was my second helping after…
So I watched Les Mis. And I may or may not have cried. Of course, it was fabulous. If you have no experience with Les Mis…you should probably Wikipedia before you watch it in theaters. There are plot bunnies flying EVERYWHERE. Breaking off from that tangent, I was surprised that everybody did so well. Especially…
After having watched the first two movies in the trilogy numerous times, I went to watch The Dark Knight Rises with the highest of expectations – expectations that were not only met, but surpassed, as I watched the movie. The movie immediately jumps into one its most character developing scenes, where the main antagonist is…
Name of Food: Red Velvet Funnel Cake
Where to Buy: Next to the Coke stage and super close to the main entrance. The place also sells Elephant Ears!
Cost: $6
What makes it worthwhile: The icing on the deep fried velvet cake.
Name of Food: Loukoumathes – Greek Honey Puffs
Where to Buy: On the Midway, in front of the BMO centre (it’s a small white truck)
Cost: $5 for a small container (imagine the Strofoam ones), $9 for a large one
Name of Food: Saltspring Island Noodle Stir Frys Where to Buy: On the Midway, near the front of the food area closest to the main entrance. It’s next to the BMO Centre! Cost: $8 for a small box, $10 for the large (which is the better deal) What makes it worthwhile: YUM! These noodles are probably the best…
Name of Food: Cotton Candy Cupcakes Where to Buy: Food Fair, next to the Rotary Dream House (previous location was a Bubble Tea stand) Cost: $5.50 What makes it worthwhile: There’s cotton candy on a cupcake! That’s about as good as it gets. I was thoroughly disappointed, as the cupcake that I got did not look similar…
It was a movie that I even felt generally positive about upon leaving the theatre. However, despite the fact that I did enjoy the movie, I’d say that the Hunger Games was ultimately a disappointment simply because it could have been much much better.
If you have yet to do so, please read my review of “City of Bones” review before reading this one. The plot for this novel goes like this: Clary wishes to return to her normal life, but her mother is in a magically induced coma, and the world of the shadowhunters refuses to loosen it’s…
So while looking for modern books about war, I came across this book. Judging from its description, this book seemed unique and interesting. But in no way did I expect to break my personal record and read an entire novel in under a day. Basically, Daisy is sent to England to visit her aunt and…
Fire is the prequel to Graceling, and since Graceling is such a great book I really had no reason not to read Fire. Basically, Fire, the last human “monster” (irresistibly beautiful creatures with the ability of mind control) is brought to “king city” by prince Brigan at a time of unrest in the Dells, as…
Note: Video review to come soon (hopefully) A few weeks ago, you might have heard a massive crash outside. You probably thought it was the sound of the stock market crashing again, or maybe the Euro losing its value, or maybe even another earthquake. But no, that was the sound of the collective grades and…
I was getting quite tired of reading depressing novels so I decided to look for books that are funny or satirical. What I did not expect was a novel that’s so much more than that. Basically, “Good Omens” is a comedic take on the Christian end times (most vividly described in the book of Revelations)…
Last weekend I spent a small fortune on this beautiful piece of technology. I’ve been wanting to get them for a while now and when they went on sale, I did. Having owned them for a few days I thought I’d give a review for anyone who might be interested in purchasing a pair. First…
Last week I went to see the movie Colombiana, starring Zoe Saldana who plays a girl that seeks revenge for the death of her family. She trains to be an assassin in order to hunt down and kill the people responsible and she also hunts down people that she and her uncle feels are a…
