Why Canada is awesome:

This is my neigborhood

(this is the dep, short for "depanneur." It's where one can buy bread, milk, candy, ice cream, and lots and lots of cheap wine. We live so close that we never need a bag to carry things back... and the guys who work there always look so confused when we politely refuse their bags, but instead hoist the milk in a bag under our arms and carry it back)


View from my window



ATOMIK!






Also! We have milk in a bag!

I know! Coming from the staues, I didn't believe it either!

Basically, one buys a big bag that has three smaller bags of milk inside. One then opens the bag and takes out one of the little milk-in-a-bags and puts it in a container that looks like the one pictured above. One can cut a little hole in one corner and just pour from that. It's cheaper than buying a carton of milk and it's oh-so-cool. I honestly never want to go back to using a carton. Ingenious!

doctor5cap

yeah... cartons kinda gross me out for some reason...

and besides milk-in-a-bag is a sure way to deter peeps from drinking stright from the milk



and the metric system rocks... its so much easier than the imperial system...

sweetness

imperial is soooo margarine
