I went to the Mary Maxim store's tent sale in Paris, Ontaro! :D
It was pretty awesome. Mom didn't get a lot of yarn - just some Patons Decor in the New Rose colourway - but I got loads of yarn. I got...
6 skeins of Patons Decor in New Rose
6 skeins of Bernat Boa in Cardinal
6 skeins of Bernat Boa in Tweety Bird
6 skeins of Patons Twister in Fruit Loops
6 skeins of Patons Twister in Sungold Twist
3 skeins of Caron Simply Soft Paints in Driftwood
I also got a small pair of scissors, two little notebooks with divider tabs, and a needle case.
The drive there was pretty interesting. This one truck driver was swerving all over the place, so we thought he was falling asleep at the wheel. After we passed him, me and Mom looked over, and he was sitting upright and alert. So now we think that he was having problems with his truck.
And then we got lost twice trying to find the road that takes you to the Mary Maxim store. At first we thought we went too far, but when we turned around we saw that we were going the right way after all, and eventually we were on the right track.
After our shopping expedition, we were going to eat at the family restaurant across the street, but they were lined up almost out the door, so we went to Ancaster to see if the new Texas grill place was open yet. They were lined up almost out the door, too, so we went to Jack Astor's. I got chicken strips, which were good except that they forgot the gravy for my fries, and when I did get my gravy it was so salty that I don't think I'll get it again. Now, I don't mind a bit of salt, but this gravy was ridiculously salty. And their fries were a tad over-seasoned, which was a bit disappointing.
Dad's on vacation now! :D I wonder if he'll take me and Mom to go yarn shopping in Toronto?
