October 5, 2018 By Kari Leave a Comment

Hidden gems, cool local product, and unique events happening in the Edmonton area. Keep scrolling to see what’s on your Local Love List this week! 

Local Love List Edmonton-1

Thanksgiving Pizza

  • Turkey and all the fix-ins on a pizza. It’s what dreams are made of. Love Pizza is back with the LOVESGIVING pizza! Mashed potato spread, pulled turkey, stuffing, homemade cranberry chutney, gravy, Brie cheese drizzle. Pop into any one of their locations to indulge.

Local Love List Edmonton-2

Dog Advent Calendar

  • I know, I know. It’s not even Thanksgiving yet and we’re talking about advent calendars. I had to pick one of these up for Moses at our favourite pet shop Fox + Tux Pet Boutique because they sell out fast. The first day your dog gets a treat-dispensing toy and then a different treat for the rest of the days leading up to Christmas. All of the goodies are made in Canada with all the best ingredients and none of the junk. Shop here.

Local Love List Edmonton-4

Delicious Juice

  • We discovered some amazing juice while at the 124 St Grand Market yesterday (the last market of the season.). You have to try Hutch + Howl’s Harmonize juice made with grapefruit, fennel, mint, and apple. It’s SO yummy and (obviously) so good for you. I loved it and Wyatt loved it. Hutch + Howl delivers throughout Edmonton and also has a storefront in St.Albert at 17 Boudreau Road.

Local Love List Edmonton-5

Driverless Transport

  • You’ll see this Mr. Bean-esque shuttle driving around Edmonton over the next few weeks. ELA is a 12-passenger driverless electric shuttle (the first one open to the public in Canada) operated by Pacific Western Transportation. From October 9-16, ELA will be touring around Blatchford, Chappelle Gardens from October 17-21, and through Old Strathcona from October 22-November 4 as part of PWT’s pilot program. Book your ride online and learn more here.

Cool Halloween Books

  • Find some really fun Halloween books at The Prints and the Paper on 124 Street. This shop is so fantastic for those really unique finds and the owner, Sandy, knows everything there is to know about every single item in the store. Be sure to check them out!

The Marc Party

  • Champagne and fries. Sounds like a perfect night out. The Marc is celebrating its eighth birthday with a Champagne and Frites special. Liebart-Regnier Brut Champagne for $25 a glass or $60 a bottle, both served with delicious house-made fries. Do it.

Choose the one you can't live without. That cares Choose the one you can't live without. That cares enough to put in the work every day - especially when it 'aint so pretty. That fights for the life you've built together. The one that's willing to grow in new ways together and open their mind and heart to new possibilities.

You're the one I want to go through all the times with - the good and the tough, the happy and sad. Thank you for being the guy that folds all of our laundry and respects that I don't want you to wash mine. 😄 Thank you for changing the garbages - cause you know I hate it. Thank you for building us epic fires in the summer and making THE BEST popcorn ever. ❤️ Thanks for watching The Bachelor with me (and providing hilarious commentary throughout). Thanks for being a gentle parent with our kiddos. ❤️❤️❤️

To the love of my life, my partner in life, and greatest Daddy - Happy 14th!
