One of the things that seem to be particularly difficult to purchase around here are fresh flowers. This afternoon, we drove around looking for a florist; I had found one on the Internet near what I thought was university mall, but in reality turned out to be university square. After I realized my mistake, we drove to the correct address but the shop was closed. Eric then remembered that there was another florist on Franklin Street, and he was right: we were finally able to make a purchase right across the street from the Varsity theater. Some time ago, it was announced that the Varsity was closing; this caused quite a bit of dismay as the theater had been a fixture of Franklin Street for decades. A good thing, then, that it just reopened for business yesterday. Check it out!
