A word or two about foods and libations.....

We began our Canadian trip in New Brunswick, which is home to Bay of Fundy lobster, and also salmon, haddock, and other yummy seafood.  Thank God I brought from home my huge enamel pot that rode on the front of our camper- a much needed item for steaming lobster.  Salmon is either sold fresh or smoked.  Lobster is picked out by customers.

As we traveled across the waterway from New Brunswick to Digby Nova Scotia, we were greeted with Digby scallops. Again, there was also fresh lobster, haddock, and local shrimp.
  
We continued to have fresh haddock as we traveled the souther shore on our way to Graves Island. 


We have also had a ton of blueberries as it is blueberry season.....blueberry wine, blueberry jam, and blueberry ice cream!

   

On our drive through the Annapolis Valley, we came upon a local farmer who made maple syrup.
  
One of the locals directed us to the local butcher and we purchased freshly ground beef, smoked bacon, and sausage- honey garlic and spicy Italian.
    

Well, I am sure there will be more foods to talk about.....stay tuned!
