Wow! I'm here a week already...

I am here officially a week. Yay! My 4 over packed suitcases are unpacked and the contents strewn in piles in the master bedroom which I need to move before our king size bed arrives next week. I've actually thrown out some things I didn't realize I had packed, oh well. I received a plant and Pink champagne from my sister-in-law as a welcoming gift, how sweet of her. :) Today we still need to do more shopping. I want to bake, I have a huge urge for it, I just need some bake-ware as I did not get any of that from my registry so we decided that's fine we will just get it together. So back into the city we go tonight, then tomorrow off to Adams.  I am most excited about Adams because it's a Croatian small goods store and they have proper smoked meats and  proper Ĩevape. When you enter this store you are greeted with this welcoming smell of smoked meats and all the things you'd find in a proper NY deli. For me, it's like a kid entering a candy store, I want to buy it all. They have a butcher too and the meat is from the Darling Downs, all is fresh. Cold cuts are cut straight of the meat, no pre-sliced  meats or cheeses. They have imported things from Croatia, such as certain candies, teas and things. To my surprise my most go to spice combo Vegeta is available at the local supermarkets so I don't need to go out of my way for that. I can't wait for the hubby to come home so we can go into the city and do some more shopping and more coffee....loving these cappuccinos from The Coffee Club, Gloria Jeans and yes McCafe.....it's a separate counter in almost all McDonald's. :)
