snack time!
This week we want you to focus on the times between mealtimes: Your mission is to share a great snack, whether it be sweet or savoury and whether it’s a mid-afternoon tide-me-over or a cure for the midnight munchies. We’re hoping you’ll elevate your humble favourites, and above all we hope you’ll share the snacks that keep you going as a participant in The Vancouver Sun Run on Sunday.
