One Fine Weekend

Had an excellent weekend. We went into Edmonton to pick up some groceries and horribly cheesy horror flicks for a fun-filled Saturday evening full of food and bad dialogue.

While in town we stopped at Planet Organic and picked up this:
Gluten free cookie dough ice cream made with coconut milk! So delicious, but also $8 for this tiny container. Well worth it in my opinion.

We then visited The Lobby on Whyte Ave. and picked up The Re-Animator and Troll 2 (apparently the " best worst movie" ever). Not soon after, Katie and Matthias came over so we could eat some BBQed deliciousness. Emma and I made some firm tofu marinated in Braggs on a bun with melted cheese and avocado. It was tofu heaven. Almost tasted like chicken - but, then again, I haven't had chicken in quite awhile. I'll have to try it again without a couple of girly drinks clouding my judgement.

As for the movies, they were terrible and I loved every damn second of them. Here's a link to a trailer of Troll 2:


Looks awesome, doesn't it? Feel good movie of the year. The year 1990, that is. The real trailer is here.

These are just a few things I learnt from Troll 2:

- Never trust vegetarians
- Always carry a "double decker balogna sandwich" in your backpack
- Sex = Popcorn
- An apple a day makes you goblin pate
- Nilbog is goblin backwards.
- Grandfathers and grandsons bond over molotov cocktails
- They're eating her! Then they're going to eat me! Oh my Gooooooooooood!

Hopefully, once we move to Toronto we can find a theatre that plays it once or twice a year. The upcoming documentary actually looks quite good.



Tonight we actually plan to watch some decent DVDs: House Season 2 and Man on Wire. Man on Wire should be rad, and House is always fantastic.


P.S. For Tonya - have a blast in Winnipeg! And avoid any confrontations with squirrels.
