St. Lawrence Market is awesome! We only went for a quick look to see what it was all about but we did pick up some fresh pasta........which was insanely expensive! We were going to get some cannelloni, two types of pasta and this really amazing sauce, until they rang us through and it came to $36! I seriously almost dropped dead right there! I mean, they had given us a sample and it was good, but not $36 good! 6 cannelloni alone were $15! Needless to say we didn't get those and chose to downsized our sauce--which turned out to be $9 for a 2 cup container. It is fantastic sauce though, I don't know what it is called but my best guess would be that it is a combination of marinara, alfredo and pesto. It came layered and you stirred it all up when you reheated it and it was so delicious that I would probably go back and pay the $9 to have more.

There was also a huge kitchen supply store/labyrinth in the middle of the building that was just loaded with all sorts of cool things--like french rolling pins and ravioli molds--just stacks and stacks of everything you could possibly think of. We didn't stay around long because D hates going places without having a definitive purpose, whereas I am perfectly content to browse for hours on end. It's pretty safe to say I will be going back the next chance I get to stock up on all sorts of lovelies!

Two of my favourite people are coming by tonight which is great because I'm starting to feel a bit like Rapunzel with my puffer fish ankle. Flip flops and tile floors are not your friend.
