First thing first…<\/p>\n

VOTE FOR CARLY! <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

My lovely friend<\/span> gay boyfriend Jeremy is in town and that makes me SO happy!\u00a0 I adore him and I haven\\’t seen him since last summer and I Miss him terribly!\u00a0 So tonight Donna, Jeremy, myself and whomever else cares to join us will be heading off to the gay village to hit up the drugstore (a bar, not a pharmacy lol) for a few drinks and to catch up and Jeremy and I are going to go out for brunch on Sunday which is always nice!\u00a0 We\\’re on a mission to find a girlfriend for Donna \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

So I am quite excited about that!\u00a0 Donna and I went out Tuesday night and had a blast!\u00a0 We went out for dinner to Schwartz\\’s <\/a>which I have never been to in spite of that fact that its pretty famous here and I\\’ve lived in this city for 5 years now.\u00a0 Now I am not exactly a smoked meant connoisseur in the least but I am a Chef and I know good food and I thought it was high time I seen what all the hype was about…\u00a0 Yeah i\\’m not exactly sure what to say about that experience other then it was slightly over-rated to say the least.\u00a0 Its your typical diner, crazy busy, packed to the gills with people and you have to share tables with strangers, thats just the way it is.\u00a0 Which didn\\’t bother me because the 2 younger guys we were sharing a table with made me laugh.\u00a0 Don\\’t get me wrong the food was good but it wasn\\’t this mind blowing experience I had thought it would be…\u00a0 I\\’ll go back for sure but I think I\\’ll order mine lean next time.\u00a0 Mine wasn\\’t too bad in terms of being too fatty but Donna\\’s dear God I think her sandwich had more fat then meat!\u00a0 Fries were decent and they had dark cherry soda which I hadn\\’t had in a really long time so that was a nice treat.<\/p>\n

En route to the deli, we spotted this AMAZING crepe place that has their wares displayed in the window sealed in acrylic so you could see what went into each crepe but sadly it closed at 8pm and we missed out by all of 3 minutes, so sadly we didn\\’t end up going. I however was on the quest for dessert since the idea was put into my head! It was still early and a beautiful night so we decided to head back into the downtown core to find some ice cream and a terrace to park it and just hang out. So we went into Sucre bleu which is a quaint little candy shop FILLED with retro candy that I enjoyed as a child so that was great fun. We also found this darling little fondue\/crepe place that was full so we made a note to go back and visit and soon! We ended up at second cup (Exciting eh :p) and sat out on the terrace having vanilla hot chocolate (regular hot chocolate with vanilla added) which was yummy topped with a smidge of whipped cream and chocolate shavings and I had some rather generic and dry tiramesu which is usually my favorite dessert but this was somewhat disappointing! I flung some of my hot chocolate on it and then it wasn\\’t so bad.

Then we headed home because it was getting late and I really had to pee! Neither one of us would use the bathroom there, too many creepy people in that part of downtown!<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, I finally got around to trying my 3 musketeer\\’s dark chocolate mint chocolate bar which Donna was kind enough not to eat on me lol.<\/p>\n

I only like dark chocolate when its paired with certain things and mint is def. one of them!\u00a0 It was interesting to say the least.\u00a0 My favorite dark chocolate\/mint combo is york peppermint patties, I LOVE THEM!\u00a0 Anyway I was curious about this chocolate bar which is more expensive then your average run of the mill chocolate bar ($1.39 in case your wondering).\u00a0 The nougat is the same as their regular bars except its white and minty.\u00a0 Not overly minty though, I thought it could have used a little more.\u00a0 Covered in dark chocolate which wasn\\’t too bitter which was nice.\u00a0 Overall it was good, not something I would buy all the time mind you but would munch on again should the craving arise.<\/p>\n

I also had John over for the weekend and we<\/span> I made steak (John isn\\’t allowed in my kitchen) and I don\\’t know if it was the cut or what but I tell you, it looked like brains when it was finished cooking!<\/p>\n
