A day off, already! So, January 3rd has passed, first day back at work and already I am dreaming of time off. That's what happens in the winter, and when you have a desk job I suppose!
My top pics for a day off in Edmonton:
- Wake up, naturally! (No alarm clock)
- Pilates reformer class at Pilates Body Beyond.
- Breakfast or a midday snack at The Duchess Bakery http://duchessbakeshop.com/
- Spot of lunch with your honey, too many options to choose from in this city!
- Farmers Market to catch some fantastic produce or locally grown organic meats.
- Italian Centre Shop to try and convince them to bring in Italian flour (Caputo 00) for homemade pasta and pizza! Leaving with a great selection of produce and a new Italian cheese to try at home!
- Indigo with my daughter, hang out and fumble through the new releases while enjoying a hot chocolate followed quickly by a visit to the Pet Shop to swoon over the new selection of puppies and onwards to the movies!
- Explore an area of Edmonton - choose a location (Windermere, Riverbend, 124 street, Callingwood,etc) and explore the locally run shops, bistros, bakeries and specialty shops!http://www.shoplocalguide.ca/listings/edmonton_small_press_association One recent find was a new specialty cheese shop in Riverbend with an exclusive selection of cheeses, preserves and accompaniments for a fantastic cheese platter, not to mention a good selection of olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
- See Kristie at Studio J Spa downtown, a special treat for a therapeutic massage or reflexology - she is fantastic! http://www.studiojurbanspa.com/
- Try a new recipe, and make a great dinner for my family!
- Get baking with Jenna - anything with chocolate or caramel works for us!
