Drummondville

We were going to go to Quebec City today but the weather suddenly became quite overcast. The skies threatened but in the end nothing happened. Someone told us that the best time to visit Quebec City is either when it is covered in snow or when the light is bright and the sky is blue. So we went to Drummondville instead. It's about 40km from Victoriaville but takes almost an hour to get there.

This is the place to go to if we're looking for something specific or just fancy a change or require a wider choice of something than what's available in Victoriaville.

Got there just in time for lunch and settled with Pizza Hut. Before some of you start frowning, just look at it from my point of view: we're young (ish) and you only live once and all that, so the odd indulgence won't kill you.
My lunch plate:




I asked for a glass of Pepsi Max (refills free, of course) and it was only 750ml. I felt a bt disappointed....!!! I mean WHO can drink that much and then have a refill???!
I put the salt next to the glass so you can compare the size!!




Indiana enjoying an apple juice:





We did a bit of food shopping this evening. Grocery stores are open to 11pm here. Bit of a novelty but I could do with having Ely to keep me company!!!
Went to Loblaws and took some photos for you:

Christmas chocolate:









Cake, anyone?




For the peanut butter fans:




Might have to get one of these (for Indiana, you understand....!):






If you're a chocoholic, DON'T look at the next photo!




Cookies - gonna take me ages to test them all out for you...




Just to prove to you that a) they DO have fresh fruit and veg in Canada, and b) that I did visit the "healthy" aisle:





That's all for now!
