What do you when there is a rainfall warning in effect and you are out in the countryside? Do a bit of exploration, of course! Today we went to the LaHave bakery where we enjoyed lunch and drooled over the amazing selection of breads and baked goods.
Last time I visited was during my preceptorship in Bridgewater and I've been dreaming of my return ever since!
 |
| Too many choices! I just wanted them all! |
In the end I decided on their panini of the day, served with carrots on the side. The panini was bursting with flavour!
 |
| Red pepper, portabello mushrooms, red onion, mozza cheese, and spinach |
I also couldn't say no to their dessert and chose their famous carrot cake.
 |
| Please...last...forever... |
Afterwards we headed down to Mahone Bay where there was an impressive scarecrow festival taking place.
 |
| *I'm on a boat* |
We made many friends while perusing the local shops.
And I even found myself a hottie. Meet my new boyfriend. He works at the LaHave bakery. He's a bit quiet but provides lovely companionship.
 |
| He's promised me a gourmet breakfast in bed every morning. |
Later we stopped into Plovers where we were distracted to no end by finger puppets.
 |
| The jellyfish (right hand, ring finger) cracks me up! |
 |
| So cute...so fun! My fingers are little animals!!! |
And we wrapped off our adventure by going to the Tea Brewery. I found my dream tea set and bought 2 types of looseleaf tea for home.
 |
| Someday you will be mine...someday! |
The evening included another scrumptious meal and a lesson in mahjong. Details to follow in Part IIb.
Happy Saturday!
