Including a shop called Thomas Hobbs who is a famous Canadian garden designer and if I had realized that we could have visited his nursery called Southlands. Not enough hours in the day especially when The Herbal Husband is planning them.
The Florist shop was next to the design shop and looked like it had been a bank in its former life. Well, he must be very good because he was selling basil plants although it wasn't warm enough yet to have the basil go in the ground in Vancouver.
We went for lunch at the The Secret Garden Tea Company in the neighborhood. The Herbal Husband had lunch and I had the demi high tea.
The Herbal Husband's lunch, a spinach, bacon, red pepper and pimento cheese quiche with a small tossed salad with vinaigrette and a sweet apple scone for dessert! Always has to have his clotted cream!
My demi high tea consisted of a chicken salad and cole slaw bite and a salami and roasted red pepper mini croissant and a mini sweet apple scone with clotted cream and jam. Dessert was a lemon tart (YUM) and the pink triangle was a coconut surprise (YUM, YUM) and the other was a piece of The Herbal Husband's scone! Thanks for sharing dear! If you are in the neighborhood make reservations for high tea. I think you will enjoy it. Well, this was just the first day. I jumped ahead and now in my next post I'll show you our float plane ride to Whistler mountain. Hope you are having a great day. We are off to see the new Pirates movie and dinner at Red Robin. Yum! Talk to you later.
