Wagon Wheels

10/24/2010

0 Comments

 
This morning, I tackled a Wagon Wheel. A Wagon Wheel is a "choc-coated marshmallow and jam snack". Basically, it tastes good. I'll consume almost anything with marshmallow.

There is no excuse for my phone camera and the lighting in my apartment. Unfortunately, my other cameras don't take very good pictures, either! Hopefully, you have an idea of what a Wagon Wheel looks like from this.

Below is a Wagon Wheel cross-section. Apparently, you can also find these in Canada, the UK and Ireland. If you ever find yourself in any of these four countries, make sure you give it a shot. It's a fun snack.

True story: I opened it up at 9 am to see how it would taste melted in my oatmeal. Oatmeal-loving food bloggers put all sorts of crazy things in their hot cereal, so I thought I'd experiment with a Wagon Wheel. The outcome? I wasted one healthy WW and 3/4 cups of oatmeal. The moral of the story? If you ever get your hands on a Wagon Wheel, eat it straight out of the package. Don't mix it with your breakfast.

After a much better breakfast, I walked into town. I forgot about the Sunday Rundle Street Market. I'm pretty sure that they have it every week. Vendors come in from all over the place and sell anything from clothes and handmade jewellery to kettle corn and deep fried potato sticks. I love it, because they block off the eastern section of the road to car traffic. The footpaths (translation: sidewalks) get crowded there all the time, because many cafes and restaurants put tables out there. So it's nice to have the freedom to walk on the streets. As I've also said before, it's my favorite part of the city.

I took pictures while waiting to cross the street.

I didn't have time to stop and take pictures of the vendors up close, unfortunately. I only snapped a few while walking through.

I made it back to my beloved river.

Hello, Duckies and Swans.

I passed some pelicans hanging out with some fishing guys. Evidently, they were hoping for a treat.
Picture
The guys caught a fish! This guy look excited.
Picture
This one is jumping out of the water to get free fish.
Picture
Thse birds are such goofballs. Sadly, only one got the fish.

I later met up with Al after his study session at the library. We got some Gellatissimo. As usual, I got my hazelnut gelato in a cup. As usual, I ate it all.The pink wafer was from a little donation to support breast cancer research.  What a great way to spend the afternoon!
