This is Vancouver
I'm starting to be ready for the guests that start to arrive in about months time. I was planning to buy all the beddings some time next month - but yesterday when I was walking home from yoga class I happened to walk past Ed's Linens on Robson, my favourite linen shop (yes, I have a favourite linen shop!), and there were having a monster sale this weekend. So what can a girl do - savings of at least 20% of everything in store... So yesterday I bought everything needed, pillows, duvets, sheets, blankets... and carried home everything I could, and went back for the rest today, with Dragon in tow to carry it home for me.
And there was another Vancouver moment yesterday: I was walking down Robson with my huge Ed's Linens bag, when a lady stopped me and said "Ooh, you've been to Ed's Linens sale, I read about it on the paper today! Good for you!", to which I had to reply "Indeed! And I have to go back for more tomorrow, I couldn't even carry all that I bought!", to which the lady laughed.
Vancouver is like that, can't help but love it.
