Canadian Favourites

[Colleens 40]

In just over 2 weeks I will be able to hit the grocery store and indulge in all of the things I have missed!! I may end up in a food induced coma for a few days, but it will be soooooooo good. I will be sure to take lots of pics and post here

My husband ordered some stuff from this site before I moved (some of you may remember the big display he made up and the fake account he made here to get ideas for it lol!). We have two fridge magnets with the web address

I am in Canada currently for a visit and to have our big wedding (dubbed Wedding Version 2.0, Canadian Edition). I find it so odd being here. Maybe I am adjusting well to the US or something but but it just feels weird being here after being gone so long.

Everytime I go into stores I am finding things I want to bring home with me. I have a list going in my cell phone lol!

VH Plum and sweet and sour sauces

Some of the VH cooking sauces (S&S, honey garlic, teriyaki etc)

Got some Ketchup as a wedding gift from my mom's friend (I refuse to eat any of the American stuff)

Caramilk bars (I had one the other day...omg so yummy!)

Some good old cheese! I can't find any good cheese in the US.

It just really sucks that I am trying to lose weight when this is a great time to bring back all my comfort foods! KD, all dressed chips, ketchup chips, vachon anything (omg Ah Caramel! Had one the other night too!). I have horrible self control when it comes to food, so it is best if I just bring back a few items and not stock up

It's funny, I've actually managed to lose weight living here because I am just not really into the junk food as much. All dressed chips were literally my demise! I used to eat them multiple times/week. Now, we also just don't buy anything premade, processed or junk at all, which I find is sooo easy to do in the US. The frozen foods and snack sections are annoyingly large and it would be so easy.

I have no self control either, so I've stopped bringing back more than 1 of everything. I let myself indulge when I am visiting and then that's it!

Oh and another thing I used to love, Five Alive juice. They don't make that here and I love it.

my mom used to buy this frozen concentrated juice that was green from Safeway.. I can't think of what it is called now. I want to say dragon Punch but I am not sure if that is it... she would usually use it to make punch by mixing it with some sprite etc.. I loved that stuff..
