Etsy Artisans at Ogilvie
Today my sister and I made a trip downtown to lunch with some relatives who are sadly not on holiday this week. Of course after lunch we shopped around a bit and on the way home stopped in the new French Market at Ogilvie (what a nice addition to the station - before it was pretty boring downstairs). I was excited to see a booth dedicated to local Etsy Artisans, showcasing some great handmade items for sale. I recommend stopping by to check them out and the handmade soap booth (Abbey Brown) next to it. So delicious!

This is in our Oglivie? Really?!
Yes! It's pretty great, take the train one day and scope it out.
I love the French market and took home some of the Creme Brulee Truffles (among others!) from Canady le Chocolatier for my family Christmas - see their shout out in Time Out as one of the best desserts of 2009 - http://bit.ly/4B3uWa. I didn't actually get one but I hear they were incredible.
I love that all of the chefs/artisans/etc. are actually present, it makes the goods more worthwhile and I'm much more willing to pay that extra dough when I get a story/smile/ribbon+box+bag with my goodies!
