  • Whenever I'm in Kensington Market and I get an attack of the sweats, I pop into Blue Banana. The space is highly air-conditioned and nobody minds that I'm loitering/faux browsing as I let the pit stains dry. That doesn't mean the place isn't browse-worthy. The various stalls are rife with the kind of fun merch and gag gifts I used to trade with my BFF in junior high, Vivian Carlucci. If I still kept in touch with Vivian today, I'd sooo buy her the corrugated cardboard bust of a moose that you put together like a 3-D puzzle. And she'd really get a kick out of the blue Banana Guard*; a plastic banana-shaped case to protect your banana from bruising.** And it's BLUE! Get it? A blue banana at Blue Banana Market!! OTHER STUFF I WOULD LIKE TO BUY AT BBM candy: Sugar Daddy, Charleston Chew, mints in cool tins Canadiana: maple syrup, maple candy, smoked wild salmon housewares: Umbra products (F-U Karim Rashid!), juice glasses made from Boylan soda bottles decor: vintage Soviet propaganda posters (reproductions) bath & beauty: pretty soaps that aren't too stinky, lip balm in a zebra-patterned ball random: fake mustaches On top of all this hypothetical purchasing, I've actually bought real stuff at Blue Banana: - long, skinny birthday candles in orange - a groovy stainless-steel chip 'n dip bowl with polka-dot cutouts - Semikolon address book - a really sarcastic birthday card because I reserve genuine emotion on stationery for Dear John letters BOTTOM LINE: A literally and figuratively cool place for shopping (imaginary and real). _______________ * On second thought, I really need to go back and buy this so that my life will be complete. ** This is not a euphemism.
