Off for a run as the muffin top is not going down, instead it is growing, especially after Ed's gourmet meal last night. Ed the pub man made us a fabulous meal which included the much discussed English onion soup - will post about it soon.

Hamburger helper
This cute hamburger press was just laying out in the aisle of a food market in Florence. No real worries of health and safety in Italy. When I got back Kiwi Rabbit made hamburgers with a fried egg, pineapple and beetroot on top. I have never seen that in my life before, apparently it is a Kiwi thing. Those crazy Kiwis!
It looked good but I didn't have a taste, will have to try that combination of flavours next time. Have only had beetroot a few times and am getting to like the taste now, I think I love that it is doused in vinegar, anything sour is fabulous to me. Why do they not sell Bick's pickles in London?!

Mmmm...Mc Cain Deep & Delicious cake is the frozen cake that we grew up on. Back in TO and at a corner shop near AK's condo I re-acquainted myself with at all the foods that I missed while being in the UK.
Hickory Sticks, Mr. Christie Cookies, Bick's Pickles(the best pickles in Canada) and the Mc Cain cake selection. The cake is white and fluffy and has the best icing. I didn't read the ingredients because I would not like them am sure but it is delicious.
Bought the 'white flavour' cake and enjoyed it with some random food items like pickles, samosas, pita and salsa and beef and vegetable patties (like I used to have in high school). It was all washed down with a cup of green tea with mint. Weird but yummy!
Don't ask me why we had this weird combo but the corner shop near his place made a pretty penny off us as they sell everything at double the price. I even persuaded AK to not get some plastic pot noodle soup as we had enough random food stuff..
The Esplanade entertainment of the day was watching the store owner drill steel bars to the shop's door in her high heels and using an electric power drill...
