Fresh Wednesday's at City HallGet down to Toronto City Hall for some fresh produce from Ontario farmers and get some entertainment while you're at it. Get free hugs from a random free hugging group (which is very nice) and eat from some interesting stalls selling Canadian bacon, Jamaican food and more. Then quench your thirst from the TO tap water mobile. 'Toronto tap water - always safe to drink. Tested 24/7' A few weeks ago, I think they said our water is cleaner than Evian ...v.interesting indeed.In the pic, Sean choosing some corn for his dinner. Sean get back to work managing the city or doing whatever you do in the ivory tower!

Fresh Wednesday's lunchtime concerts happen until August 22nd and I think the farmers' markets continue 'til end of September.

Fijian foods
I am off to Fiji - the islands in the South Pacific Ocean for two weeks. I have been out of blog mode for a while with all these national holidays getting in the way.

Happy belated Canada Day to you all...hope you had a good one. Ours was filled with bbq and more bbq, pies, ice cream, cakes and more treats like brownies, fresh strawberries, cherries and more.

Needless to say it was a great weekend with lots of fresh Ontario produce.

This pic is of Kokoda, a Fijian food. It is made out of raw fish meat seasoned with lemon juice and coconut milk; can't wait to have some great fish meals.

While away, I am going to try and post if I can but not sure if I will be able to access the internet.

Am asking guest bloggers step forward -any takers? Or readers, I will be back in two short weeks. By then, I should have a wealth of stuff to post in regards to plane food (tip: always order a special meal as you get served first), Fijian delights and New Zealand treats - am going to Pat and Robbie's farm so will take pics of me milking the cows!! Am very excited. Maybe Pat will make her famous Pavlova....mmm!
