Passing Through During Passover

Written by

Having thoroughly enjoyed our nachos1, we decided to slowly walk back toward Yonge. Instead of walking straight down college, we decided to take a detour through Kensington.

This was in part so that she could show me her favourite second-hand/vintage clothing stores (something I requested, since I am in dire need of skirts), and in part so that I could make photos and play my usual game of “great moments in Cancon.”2

Since it was getting mighty cold and beginning to snow (no good for vintage shopping), as we departed, we decided that it would be a good evening for me to turn in earlier and for her to get back to her home in the Ledbury Park neighbourhood.

We’d meet again the following morning after my breakfast.

  1. And I a guacamole spring roll appetizer that I expected to be in rice paper, but it was not, and my sister, for whom it was Passover, could not enjoy the deep-fried treat. I might have felt a little piggy afterward, but as I ..err, write before you, I lived to tell the tale. ↩︎
  2. King of Kensington was too obvious and a little (just a little) before my time and since CBC has not sought out the streaming rights to the show or really seems to care at all about its back catalogue, we’re left with a few badly-encoded YouTube videos and hazy second-hand memories instead of an enduring love. Monday was mostly me yammering about Twitch City and the force that is Don McKellar! ↩︎
