      grown,
      organic

      As
      it
      is
      just
      across
      the

      from
      my
      Blanchard
      Hall
     
     
      apartment,
      I’ve
      managed
      to
     
     
      take
      in
      the
      sights
      and
      sounds
     
     
      of

      fairly
      reg-

      and
      I
      have
      never
     
     
      been
      disappointed.
     
    

    
     
      The
      selection
      is
      extremely
     
     
      broad,
      and
      I
      guarantee
      that
     
     
      each
      and
      every
      one
      of
      you

      be
      able
      to
      find
      some-

      from
      all
      over
      the
      world,
      not
     
     
      to
      mention
      the
      cornucopia

      Over
      the
      course
      of
      the
      year,
     
     
      I’ve
      been
      able
      to
      narrow
     
     
      down
      these
      options
      into
      my
     
     
      own
      personal
      favourites,
      the
     
     
      first
      being
      the
      teas
      at
      Lady
     
     
      Baker’s
      Tea
      Trolley.
     
    

    
     
      As
      soon
      as
      you
      set
      foot
     
     
      in
      the
      door
      there
      she
      is,
     
     
      Lady
      Baker
      and
      her
      Trol-
     
     
      ley,
      stocked
      full
      of
      teas
      from
     
     
      pretty
      much
      anywhere
      in
      the
     
     
      world
      that
      grows
      the
      stuff,
     
     
      and
      in
      too
      many
      flavours
     
     
      to
      name
      here.
      To
      aid
      you
     
     
      in
      your
      choice,
      they
      offer
      a
     
     
      tray
      of
      the
      weekly
      sample
     
     
      flavour
      and
      some
      nice
      bis-
     
     
      cuit
      chunks
      to
      try.
      All
      the
     
     
      flavours
      I’ve
      tried
      have
      been
     
     
      great,
      so
      I
      can’t
      imagine
      the
     
     
      rest
      would
      be
      disappointing
     
     
      at
      all,
      though
      it’s
      a
      marathon
     
     
      to
      get
      through
      all
      of
      them.
     
    

    
     
      Next,
      if
      you
      make
      your
     
     
      way
      down
      the
      aisle
      to
      Out
     
     
      of
      Africa,
      you’ll
      be
      in
      sa-
     
    
   
   
    
     
      mosa
      heaven.
      You
      can
      get
     
     
      either
      veggie
      or
      beef
      (both
     
     
      are
      satisfying,
      though
      veggie
     
     
      is
      my
      fave)
      and
      both
      come
     
     
      wrapped
      in
      a
      deliciously
     
     
      crispy,
      deep
      fried
      coating
     
     
      that
      is
      just
      sinful.
      The
      warm
     
     
      and
      toasty
      insides
      delicately
     
     
      spiced
      and
      are
      perfection
      on
     
     
      a
      chilly
      spring
      morning.
     
    

    
     
      On
      warmer
      mornings,
      I'll
     
     
      head
      straight
      to
      the
      back
      of
     
     
      the
      Market
      to
      the
      smoothie
     
     
      counter.
     
    

    
     
      The
      fruity
      tropical
      blends
     
     
      are
      the
      best
      thing
      to
      wake
     
     
      you
      up
      in
      the
      morning
      after
     
     
      a
      long
      night
      of...studying
     
    
   
   
    
     
      -(cough
      cough),
      and
      the
      man-
     
    
   
   
    
     
      go
      one
      is
      to
      die
      for,
      though
     
     
      I
      hear
      the
      chocolate-banana
     
     
      mix
      is
      also
      pretty
      darn
      good.
     
     
      Smoothie
      in
      hand,
      ll
      dash
     
     
      to
      the
      smoked
      salmon
      guy
     
     
      on
      the
      wall
      opposite
      the
      en-
     
     
      trance.
      His
      salmon
      is
      award-
     
     
      winning,
      and
      has
      just
      the
     
     
      right
      amount
      of
      smoke.
      It’s
     
     
      best
      to
      make
      up
      your
      mind
     
     
      about
      the
      toppings
      as
      you’re
     
     
      waiting
      in
      line,
      as
      things
      tend
     
     
      to
      move
      rather
      quickly
      when
     
     
      placing
      your
      order.

      The
      Charlottetown
      Farm-
     
     
      er’s
      Market
      is
      always
      an
     
     
      adventure,
      and
      is
      always
     
     
      satisfying,
      because
      even
      if
     
     
      you
      don’t
      fancy
      anything
      up
     
     
      on
      offer,
      you
      can
      always
      get
     
     
      some
      of
      the
      great
      fresh
      meat
     
     
      and
      veg
      and
      make
      something
     
     
      yourself!
     
    

    
     
      Bon
      appétit!
