A road trip Ottawa to Quebec City Day 1

Image
 My friend visited from Vancouver at the same time a friend from Ottawa was going to Montreal to celebrate her birthday and foodie buddy was also going to be in Ottawa. I will call the first friend to arrive Van-friend she is Korean and really wanted to go to Quebec City because there is a Korean drama filmed at the fairmont there. I learned French in Trois-Rivières thirty years ago and I always said I would go back one day. This trip took a lot of planning but of course things never go as planned it was still a great trip just wished we had more time in each city. When we were looking to rent a car we were having trouble getting one and no trains were running to Quebec City on a Thursday. We decided to book a flight from Ottawa to Quebec City meet my friend in Montreal the next day stay the night and drive back to Ottawa in the afternoon.  Van friend flight came late on Wednesday night. I got her Korean food from Koreanmothermeals at Parkdale night market. She loved it. We stayed at t

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 $
