The first fruit cake of the season


My mother came home one day with a fruitcake, every year around christmas time she brings home at least one or two of these and they all happen to be by the same coworkers..every year. This inspired me to make an entry. I have come to a conclusion that it is a fact based on my own personal survey that every household in Canada..basically all of North America will have at least one or two fruitcakes before the end of the year. They usually come during the holidays, and personally I don't like how they taste. But hey it's the holidays so I make this post in tribute to the great holiday fruitcake, and while you're eating your christmas fruitcake you can down it with some eggnog..mmmmm

local love: Osmows

Another hidden gem in Mississauga is Osmows. I have tried a lot of schwarma's in this lifetime and they all do not even come close to Osmow's schwarmas. I can not even express this, every schwarma I have tasted that isn't Osmows have been soo bland to me..that is because Osmow's is the BEST! I am not exaggerating here people, and I am telling the honest truth. You can find Osmows in 251 Queen Street ,Streetsville. I have been going to this place since high school, once you've tried Osmow's schwarma's you're gunna keep coming back for more..I guarantee it!
Just some pictures of good times at Osmow's: 
some friends to share some schwarmas with
hard at work

mmmm... jam packed with garlic sauce and a pack of gum
for dessert!

Local Love: Korean Grill

So as of Friday last week, I am glad to say I am done the fall term 
*hurrah* I went downtown after my last midterm to spend some 
time with my good friends Michelle, and Ruby. After some retail 
therapy, a well deserved treat considering it's almost my birthday (Dec 11). 
We went down Dundas and Younge and ate at Korean Grill. 
Korean Grill is located on 369 Yonge Street it is pretty sweet,
 you pay $12.99 for all you can eat, and they present you with 
raw meat to which in the centre of the table, is a mini grill, and 
you pretty much cook your own meal. To top of a great day, I treated 
myself to a rumified pina colada...which was
in my opinion pretty darn strong. 
Onto the pics:

ok so this does not look that appetizing but I swear it tastes 
pretty darn good.

a well deserved pina colada sort of..ngl I was
expecting it to taste like booster juice with 
a lil sumthing sumthing in the mix...yeah not so much
