You can find me at the store Monday through Saturday but I usually enjoy Sundays off, when Ienjoy my free time languidly lazing around Kensington Market. However, a couple Sundays ago Ifound myself jones-ing for BBQ’ed meat so I drove up to the store afterhours and poked aroundthe cavernous meat fridge with only the light of my cellphone to guide me to something that caughtmy fancy. I found some chicken thighs sitting in what appeared to be a Jamaican Jerk Marinadewhich is unusual as we ordinarily only marinate breasts. Naturally the only thing to do was takethem to my parents’ house and grill them up. As expected, totally delightful. While people tend tolean towards chicken breasts, the boneless thighs really lend themselves better tomarinating as all the flavour gets trapped inside. We’ll have them featured this weekin our Jerk, Maple Mustard and Teriyaki Marinades, or au naturel if you prefer.Featured at

We’ll have two frozen specials this weekend.First, we’ll have our Cream of AsparagusSoup (Reg. $8.99/900ml). This was made afew short weeks ago from local asparagus, soeven if the season’s done, you can still savour theflavour. We’ll also have our famous Pot Roast(Reg. $19.99/8"x5"foil). Even if we don’t have itat the cafe, Gail, you’llstill be able to enjoy itwhenever you like.

WHAT’S INAISLE FOUR?If you’re lactose intolerant, read no further! We’ll have a pair of dairy-centric indulgences to tantalize yourdiscerning palates. We’ll start off with our full line of Kawartha Dairy Ice Creams. I feel I hardly have to extollthe virtues of such a universally beloved product, but I will point out that we have my favourite Sugar Shack MapleIce Cream made with swirls of maple syrup and chunks of maple sugar candy. Incredible! Reg. $8.99We’ll also have Stirling’s European Churned Butter. When I saw this I was a tad surprised that we were featuringa butter as I had the notion they were all made equally. However on further research Ifound that this is 84% fat (regular butter is 80%) so this is particularly decadent, if you’relooking to add extra oomph of comfort to your baking or (like I use most of my butter)tossed in fresh pasta.

Simply put, this is the best corn you’ll find at themarket. The cobs are massive, the kernels packedin tight rows, so sweet you can eat it raw. There’sa reason that this is the only farm we’ve dealt withfor corn for the last ten years. Is it really Augustlong weekend withoutfresh sweet corn? Floss notincluded. Featured at 49¢

Peach Custard Cake - Admittedly, on therare occasion I might over emphasize my loveof certain products in the flyer. (Example:anything with olives I do not enjoy. Also flans…so much crust with so little filling, pretty muchpie’s ugly cousin.) However, there is no over-exaggeration when I say that the Peach CustardCake we have on this weekend is my favouritecake in the store. Unfortunately, we only make itonce a year so I try and scarf at least two downbefore the weekend is over. It has spiced applesand peach slices baked in as well as cinnamonand ginger. After it's baked we poke holes in thecake and pour liquid custard over it, allowingit to soak in before giving it a second bake.Finished with more peaches and apricot glazesm $24.99, lg $34.99Peach Pies - lattice pastry top or streuselavailable freshly baked or frozen unbaked - fillingis peaches, sugar and spices $12.99eaPeach Streusel Muffins - We are baking upa buttermilk muffin loaded with peaches andtoppped with a brown sugar streusel crumb top,like an individual coffee cake! $2.59ea

We bakethese periodically throughout the day so you’reguaranteed a fresh, warm one. $5.99

Simply put, this is the best sausage we make at the store…at least in my opinion. We start with coarsely groundlean pork, some mild spices and the iconic stout beer asthe requisite moisture. There are two ways I like to enjoythese. First, I like to steam them with some sauerkraut andthen brown them in a hot pan to give them a crispy finish.And secondly (weather permitting), grilled and then servedon a bun schmeared with a sharp mustard loaded withcrumbled bacon and extra oldcheddar…sheer deliciousness!Reg. $5.99/lb Now25%

In fact, they're labelledas “Sugar Crunch”, whichupon one bite you’ll find tobe a most fitting name.
