Yes, Math, croissant bread pudding. Eggs, cream, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, choc chips sprinkled on top.. Heaven. I often make it for Christmas and Easter mornings, too, but for Christmas I use egg nog for the heavy cream.
We used to have to do yearly emissions tests, too. I think it stopped being done about 10 years ago.
Lots happens in Vancouver and suburbs. I think most places are the same and it just depends what you feel like doing. I want the dc to really feel part of the city so I do try and expose them to various cultural events. I like it , too, and have always tried to do different things to keep life interesting. ☺️
We went to the Christmas Market for a bit this evening, saw the tree lighting, listened to carols (strange for mid-Nov), drank apple cider, had pics with Santa and a wander around and then went to a diner (Denny's) for dinner (breakfast food). Kids loved it as it was their first time. They had a waffle, scrambled egg and sausages (the Jr. Slam). I had steak and eggs sunny side up which they were very curious about and then when I put HP sauce on my plate they had to try it, too. It was a new experience and I loved listening to them chat about this new discovery, HP Sauce. 😂.
We then walked down to another Lumiere exhibit, stayed about an hour then stopped by one more down by the beach which was really fun before heading home soaking wet and chilled as it was raining and 7c.
