to market, to market...

I've taken the title of this post from a season 6 episode of Sex and the City, except where Carrie went to the stock market, I went to the Kingston Market on the penisula today. However, last night I did have a bit of a Sex and the City night last night- dinner and cocktails with 3 girl friends.This morning it was a country drive for Katie, Erin, Nancy and I on our way to the market.



Emu anyone?


Stands of organic veggies...


Fresh cut flowers and hand picked berries...


Pretty little frocks and hand sewn pillows...


Home-made jam and jellies...


Flavourful wines...
(I bought a bottle of raspberry)


Tastey samples...


Live music...


Busy crowds...


Hand made soaps


Lovely earrings...
(adored the funky feather ones)





Cooked foods of all varieties...


Delicious cheesecake...
(don't touch, this one is all mine!)


The adventure continues with checking out swimming holes...



...and waterfalls!




And last but not least, there was a road side stop to visit some alpacas!



Today's Outfit
(nothing particuarly fancy)







  1. top- Odd Molly Uncorporated- Wildflower (Halifax, May '07)

  2. bermuda shorts- American Eagle (May '08)

  3. sandals- Clarks- Winners (Spring ;10)

  4. purse- Guess- Walsh Lugguage (Feb '09)

  5. sunglasses- Michael Kors- TJMaxx (April '09)

  6. ring- received at Marielle's bachelorette last weekend
I've loved the top above since I bought it (which is good, considering the price tag that had been attached to it). I was watching MTV's Downtown Girls (one of my guilty pleasures) and during one particular episode I saw Klo wearing the same top! (Please excuse the blurriness of the still-frame.)


Well this was a fairly lengthy post. Today's follow up activities to the market and penisula sights will be a drop in at a family reunion as well as toasting a beer (or a glass of raspberry wine) to a friend's new apartment later this evening! Hope you all have a lovely Saturday eve!
