March Break "Trip"/ Foody Saturday

Hi!

It's Saturday, and March Break is almost over!  We were supposed to go to Nova Scotia to visit K's uncle and aunt, but the bad weather prevented us from going.  Halifax got a whopping 50 cm (20 in) of snow Wednesday, so they were pretty much shut down.  The kids ended up getting storm stayed at their grandparents's for 2 nights and yesterday (Friday) we went to Charlottetown for the day.  K and I had already taken time off work so we both had the day off.

First, we took the kids to Seoul Food for lunch.  K and I got Dolsot Bibimbap, C got Gimbap (Korean Sushi Rolls) and N got Chicken Fried Rice.  Everybody liked it which was nice.  Although it's a bit pricey for lunch so I'm not sure how often we'll be going with all 4 of us!

After lunch, we went downtown.  N & K went to the Comic Book Store.  C and I went to the dance supply store to get new tights for C.  Then we went to the library to get some new books and magazines.  We met K and N at the mall, where we had Bubble Tea!  After that, we all went to Value Village.  N found a SNES, C got some slippers and I got 2 "new" pairs of boots.  (I had bought a pair of $20 boots at the Summerside Mall a couple years ago, which I really loved.  However, they were cheap and pleather and now the pleather is cracking and they don't look so good anymore.  So, I've replaced them with some genuine leather Aldo Boots and a suede pair of Cougar Boots.)  On the way home we drove by Brookvale Ski Park and here's what we had to drive thru! 

This is a secondary highway, with only one lane and drifts about 10 feet tall!

We stopped in Summerside to make some copies for N's Science Fair Project and to go to the Pawn Shop so he could buy a game for his SNES.  We made it home just in time to have some frozen pizza for dinner.

Speaking of dinner, here's what we ate last week.

• Fri- Leftovers
• Sat- Pizza with Pillsbury Dough
• Sun- Slow Cooker BBQ Pork Chops, Smashed Potatoes, Boiled Beet Greens (Storm Day)

• Wed- Leftovers (Another storm day!!)
• Thurs- Out to eat at Gentleman Jim's with the in-laws

Have a great weekend! :-)
