Received another online order from Lousje and Bean today. I love everything as usual! The mini sleeves really spice up a boring black sweater. I now have another Love’s Pure scarf. The size, colour, design and fabric are all amazing. I really enjoy the styling videos. Not getting out to shop has not fazed me at all during the pandemic thanks to L&B!

We always stop at Fairview mall on our way into St.Catharines. It's great that they have little booths where local artisans, crafters, and antique dealers can sell their items, right beside Winners, Walmart, a food court and a health supplement store. Groceries are available there as well, and there are TONS of stores and restaurants nearby (Harvey's, Toys r Us, Costco) My only complaint about this place is that you have to drive. There are too many smokers including pot smoke to walk around. Homeless people seem to really love taking this GO bus from St Catharines to Toronto and back to Hamilton. They're always drunk and high at the bus stop. I think St Catharines is working on getting the potheads and crackheads out of the neighborhood so I hope they succeed. They busted an illegal marijuana "dispensary" 8 blocks away but it just re-opened a week later. To avoid pot smoke, stay away from the bus stop and the tunnel. To avoid cigarette smoke, you might have to drive everywhere. People there are EXTREMELY inconsiderate with their smoking. They will walk up to you even if you wear a mask and some will stand outside their cars or in the mall doors for literally hours at a time. It's like they're trying to blow it in your face. The only way to avoid smoke is to go through Starbucks because they don't allow it on their patio. Once in the mall or the stores though it is a great area! Maybe the business owners can get together and make the entire property smoke-free!
