Today started out as one of those days …

I accidentally turned off my alarm clock when I got up to feed the cats this morning, so I was an hour late getting to my mom’s house and two hours late getting to my brother’s place. By then he was hungry so we stopped off and got lunch before hopping on the streetcar to go down to the National Trade Centre for the Gourmet Food and Wine Expo …

… which, not so conveniently, wasn’t actually at the National Trade Centre, but was instead at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, a fact that took us a while to determine since we only knew where it wasn’t, not where it was and no-one seemed to be answering their phones today.

We finally found the phone number for the MTCC and confirmed that we did want to be there instead of where we were, but streetcars don’t run to the Ex as often in the winter, so we had a little bit of a wait before we could hop on a streetcar back to the MTCC and the Wine and Food Expo.

Which was very fun BTW. Lots of wines from around the world, along with a few vendors of beers and spirits. Food was a little expensive so we skipped that part of it and used all our tickets on alcohol.

Then we pretty much had to go out for dinner because there was no way I could have driven home at that point. 😉

So while the day started as one of those days, it ended as one of those days.
