Winter has arrived in Ottawa once again. Temperatures hit freezing last week, and snow fell on the weekend, with a major dumping between today and tomorrow.
Readers know very well by now what I think of this season.
So it's a good thing that I've found myself enjoying many of my favourite southern flavours recently.
I've been on a ginger beer kick, enjoying it straight or mixed with green tea or ginger ale (both very good!) and found some Mexican Cola the other day. My parents randomly found a guy selling churros (best!) at a market over the weekend. And a new find, Spicy Tropical Fusion Doritos, tasting of pineapple, jerk spice, and cilantro, get two thumbs way up! Also, I still have some real Mexican hot chocolate left from a vacation my parents took.
Maybe it's been a subconscious thing, my brain providing me with a way to cope with the cold and hated precipitation. Either way, I'm enjoying it.
Cheers!
