As I mentioned earlier, I have this thing for Mr. Potato Head, or if you are in French speaking Canada, Monsieur Patate. My new job has afforded me some fun and unique opportunities, one of which was a trip to Canada last year. I went to Calgary to attend a training at SMART's world headquarters. While there, myself and a fellow Education Consultant from my company got to meet some pretty cool people. Since we didn't rent cars (we stayed right on the rail line about two stops from SMART), our Canadian friends volunteered to take us out and about at night. One night we went to a big mall just south of Calgary, the largest mall in Alberta (it wasn't that big). At the mall there was a Toys R Us... so I had to check. Sure enough, there was a Mr. Potato Head that I did not have and the packaging was in English and French! Too good to pass up! While I realize this did not happen on Day 32, as the post would suggest, I did feel the need to share. I was checking to make sure that the doors were locked before going to bed and I passed the guest bedroom where this Mr. Potato Head lives on a bookshelf and it brought back fond memories of a fun trip to Canada, so I snapped a pic!
