August 2, 2018: Montreal Wrap-up!

That’s it!  This Montreal trip is a wrap!  I head back to Toronto tonight for an emotional reunion with Suji and Lulu.  I’m sure Akemi will be happy to see me as well.

Grocery shopping with mom.  She bought 14 eggplants and various other produce, then complained the price per pound was 10 cents higher than advertised.  At one point, she motioned me over to the fish counter and pointed to some sea bass.  “See?”she whispered, loudly enough for the fishmonger to hear.  “Not fresh!”

The surf and turf platter at Yiasou.  All great, but the chicken was the surprise star of the night!

Lunch at Les Enfants Terrible.  Not pictured: sis’s grilled calamari.

That’s that!  Tomorrow, I have a 9:30 a.m. call regarding that gothic horror series, then head into the room to discuss character arcs re: that “very different” sci-fi project.  Next week, talks begin on the “Untitled Awesome Project”, a final discussion on that small-town horror series, and I start development on that comic book adaptation!

Also next week, I start experimenting with some new blog themes.  And, as always, YOU get to vote!
