Out & About #452 | Collective May Visuals

5/31/2018

 
​I thought my period of lethargy had subsided when we went to Wonderland. Fast forward a few days, however, and I was suddenly stricken with headache and fever, forced into a bedridden state for over twenty-four hours. Fighting a nasty cold and throat-on-fire had been adequately terrible, yet the world had not been done with me until high internal temperatures struck.

Majority of this month has been an ongoing recovery period to combat the germs collected from young monsters of the current generation - be careful when working with kids! Most of the adventures have already been previously documented, so here are merely some in-between munching visuals.

​1) Breakfast in the form(s) of Matcha Peanut Butter Toast and a Coconut Pineapple Bun w/ a side of Iced Matcha Latte
2) A traditional remedy known as 杏仁蜜棗茶 (aka Chinese Almond Jujube/Sweet Date Tea) was summoned to soothe a throat on fire.
3) More CoCo, as expected.

​4) Kariya Park towards the end of its blooming season
5) Other variants of toast: Peanut Butter with accents of Nutella and Banana + Yuzu (and a side of Mantis Matcha Latte)

​6) Visiting the sole Canadian stop for Yayoi Kusama's Infinity Mirrors exhibit
7) Post-AGO stop at One Zo Tapioca

​8) The Spinach & Feta Croissant from COBS Bread is a guilty pleasure of mine.
9) CoCo (again) and Mii Sandwich takeout in the form of Chicken Katsu Don and Chicken Teriyaki Bento

​10) Touring the Toronto Premium Outlets, and securing a Strawberry Acai Refreshed on my way out

​11) The Signature Grilled Chicken & Bacon McWrap was confirmed to be a great deal more enjoyable than the Sweet Chili rendition.

​12) The first Scoops of the season!

After a disappointing run-in with a "Closed'' sign on the popular artisan ice cream shop's door, my favourite fangirl and I had left the premises feeling slightly disheartened. With news that the neighbourhood favourite was back up and running for the warmer weather, I made a mental note to return as soon as cold symptoms began to clear.

​As with their other artisan creations, the 2018 edition had not strayed in flavour depth nor quality. Cookie Monster - a very Fugo-like creation in terms of appearance - quickly became a favourite amongst children of all ages (myself included), while Black Cherry was a classic, fruit-based soft ice cream with chewy chunks of sweetened cherries. Toasted Coconut proved to be so fragrant that one could deduce its presence by a mere waft, without even so much as tasting the comforting tropicalness.

​I sincerely hope that all sickness has passed by me for this season and beyond. Here's to welcoming a June with balmy weather with open arms and optimistic spirits!
