They say you don't miss something till it's gone and this has been a reoccurring theme during my visit to Canada. Whether it's something as insignificant or small as prewashed spinach or being able to speak in English to strangers or big like friends I haven't seen for a long time, seeing my nieces or training at my old gym System Fitness, I didn't realize how much I really longed for the things, the people and the places that I miss here in Canada.
Did the mistake of walking into a Shopper's Drugmart and walking down the isles and isles of Western goodies, products and whatnot. It was like a sensory overload and I'm sure I must have been labelled the crazy girl as I continually awed over and snapped pictures of all the things I'd love to stash in my suitcase. I narrowed it down to three things, limited myself to that -- Crest toothpaste, Lady Speedstick deodorant and Reese Pieces Peanut Butter cups. Life can continue without Reese Pieces, that's my sweet tooth craving, but I just have to have my Crest and Lady Speedstick. If I were to go for a fourth item, I'd have to say it'd be a toss up between the Crest whitening strips and Whey Isolate Protein Gel (Gel on the Go).
