Vancouver and Bowen Island trip October 2024 - lots of vegan food

Image
This post will mostly be about the vegan food I ate on my last Vancouver trip. My main purpose of this trip was to visit older relatives but there was a secondary purpose of visiting my mom’s grave for the first time.  I left from Ottawa airport in the evening but I hadn’t eaten much that day. I usually don’t get food on planes but I was hungry and they had a vegan wrap. It was good. You can read about my flight experience here   Is AirCanada bulkhead seat worth an $80 Flights from Ottawa usually arrive in Vancouver in the evening. Before exiting the gates there is a cafe that has to live for treats. Rebel cookies were on sale at the store. There is very little vegan food around my hotel so I stocked up for the week. After getting luggage there is a 7-11 in the airport to get some essentials for the trip. I always look to see if they have the vegan breakfast sandwich I had it one time but haven’t seen it again.  It has been two years since my mom passed away and I had nev...

Lush birthdaycake facemask

Image
This facemask has chocolate in it that's why I chose it it smells really good. I saw this display on ice which is what brought me into the store to look at it. There were a few bowls of the different facemasks. I told the sales lady I wanted one and she got a tub out of the fridge told me I needed to store it in the fridge because there are fresh ingredients in. She told me to put it on leave it for 10 minutes and wash it off with hot water. The actual tub has the same instructions on it and there is an expiry date on it last for about two weeks. The pot says it is chocolate heaven for oily skin. Cupcake calms with cocoa powder and sandwood. The tub has enough for 2-3 masks. I think it cost around $7 I don't remember the exact price. I put it on my face and it felt really fresh it was easy to spread on kind of like my face was a cupcake and I was spreading frosting on it. It felt really good the 10 minutes it was on and it tightened up. It didn't come off with just hot wat...

Minoo Bakery Coquitlam

Image
Minoo is a persian bakery in coquitlam. They have really good cookies that are filled with nuts and have different flavours. You purchase things based on weight I believe its $3 or $4 per pound so you can buy whatever assortment you want. I bought a box to take to a party and got a mixture of the sweet persian cookies which are like a light shortbread with different nuts, flavourings some with chocolate some with things like orange or cocunut.  Today they had turkish cookies. They are like a cookie but more on the savory side kind of a cross between a pretzel and a shortbread cookie. I really like one that had some chili spice on it, it started out kind of sweet but then had a kick to it. All the cookies are freshly made taste great and look pretty. 

PInecone Research Review

Pinecone Research has become my favourite site to complete surveys. The surveys pay $3 each but they only take around 15 minutes and I enjoy competing the ones they send sometimes they also send products to test and another $3 survey to go with it. This survey site is different than the other in that you qualify for every survey that is sent to you and you don't have to fill in extra questions to see if you do qualify. I have only been getting on average 3 surveys a week but that spare cash does add up. It is also low cash out and you can cash out when you have $3 so after one survey and the cash out options are paypal, cheque, or rewards. I have only requested cheques so far but I usually receive them in a few days after I request them. There are a few negatives one it seems like there is only one person in customer service I had e-mailed a question and I received a generic answer that didn't address my question .I originally thought the payments would be $3 US but they are $...
