I had not bought one at MEC back in Vancouver because I have a fairly good one, albeit with a\u00a0temperamental\u00a0zipper. I decided that if I found a cheap replacement, I would get one, but otherwise I would endure with the jacket I have even if it clashes with the rest of the clothing I&#8217;m taking on the trek. The jacket I found this afternoon is in perfect condition, is my size and is of a colour (olive-ish) that matches or complements the rest of my Chilkoot gear! Sweet!!! I also picked up several books. My bag was bursting at the seams, but I didn&#8217;t get a sarcastic comment from the cashier, so I don&#8217;t think I was excessive. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p>Then, I checked out the Saturday market on Front Street and bought a mountain (okay, a pound) of basil from my manager&#8217;s husband before going to the general store where I found\u00a0mozzarella\u00a0on mega sale. Looks like I&#8217;m having pizza again for dinner. \ud83d\ude00 I am so excited to have so much sweet-smelling basil in the house! Whatever I can&#8217;t eat in the next few days will get frozen and enjoyed in the next few weeks.
