The Junction Flea

We took a little drive over to Bayview Ave. here in Toronto to check out The Junction Flea which was being held at The Evergreen Brickworks this year. Yesterday was the last day and it was a beautiful day for the visit. Not a whole lot caught my eye, but I did love the laser cut wood trivets and coasters from The National Design Collective (they also have the coolest piece called a ubagaan which is a bench and a toboggan!), as well as the sweet framed photos from Elephant in the Attic. Leo loved the red truck, and we lunched on ramen noodles and dumplings from FeastTO, along with the most delicious fries from Jamie Kennedy.

Hope your weekend was a great one!

sunday junction adventure

This past Sunday while Leo was napping, Miss Mila and I went on a little adventure to The Junction to check out The Junction Flea. I used to live there right out of university, so I always love going back to the 'hood.

Above is a pic of where I used to live - second floor right over top of good 'ol Eva's Hair Stylists and no, Mila's middle name did not come from my time here! ;)

I didn't really know what to expect, but I thought there would be more vendors selling crafty type things, but it wasn't really the case. I didn't see too much that caught my eye, but I can tell you that I had the most amazing pork dumplings from this feasT.O place. Um yum.

I also found a really cool mug for 10 bucks. Well, technically it's a beer stein, but the guy said if I'm really careful I can put hot liquids into it.

I love the handle and the colour and it's the perfect fit in my hand. Now if only I could find five more just like it...

Hope you had a nice weekend!
