​Corner Stores, Boynton Beach & Creamy Tea
(Original airdate: July 17, 2016)


Welcome to the Insomnia Project. Sit back, relax and listen as we discuss the mundane

Welcome to the Insomnia Project. Sit back, relax and listen as we have a conversation about the mundane. One thing that we can promise you is that our conversation will be less than fascinating. Some say relaxing, so that you can just drift off, maybe catch a few Z's. Thank you for joining us. We hope you will listen and sleep. I'm your host, Marco Timpano.

Nidhi:  And, um, I'm your co host, Nidhi Khanna.

Marco:  Nidhi, tell me about a time when you went to a corner store.

Nidhi:  A corner store, Marco. I was actually at a corner store last night.

Marco:  Okay.

Nidhi:  I had an emergency milk requirement.

Marco:  Oh.

Nidhi:  And of course, uh, the grocery stores were either closed or too far away for me to want to get into my car or walk down. So instead I just went to my local corner store. And you know, in Montreal, we actually call the corner stores the deponeurs.

Marco:  Ooh.

Nidhi:  Or a deponeur.

Marco:  And what does that mean, corner store. Oh, I see. Because I know sometimes it says couchtard on it.

Nidhi:  Well, that's the brand of a store.

Marco:  Okay. But yes, I always say I need a couche tard. Right. I don't realize that I'm saying the wrong one.

Nidhi:  Well, I guess it's a couche tart. Like it is brand, but it means, you know, up late, uh, like sleep late. So I mean, that's a very literal transition translation.

Marco:  Open till late.

Nidhi:  Open till late.

Marco:  Um, and that's often when you need a corner store.

Nidhi:  Exactly.


Niddy: I have milk or cream with my coffee depending on quality

Marco:  What was this milk emergency you had?

Nidhi:  The milk emergency was that I knew I wasn't going to have any milk for my coffee the next morning. And that's always an emergency. Uh, so.

Marco:  So was it milk or cream?

Nidhi:  So, interestingly enough, I have milk with my coffee in the morning. And then during the day, depending on the quality of coffee that I'm drinking, I might have cream with it.

Marco:  Really? Okay, so I need to delve into this.

Nidhi:  Sure.

Marco:  What quality of coffee would require cream versus milk?

Nidhi:  So the coffee that I have at my office, uh, is one that, uh, the company brings in. For example, I don't particularly like it, but it is the coffee that is there. And therefore I'll add a little bit more cream. Cream than I would milk. Because I Find with milk, the taste of the coffee is more apparent. And so I only enjoy milk in coffees that are a little bit higher quality.

Marco:  So the cream would mask a, uh, lesser quality coffee for you and therefore you would enjoy this lesser quality coffee a bit more because you've got the richness of the cream to sort of balance what the coffee is lacking.

Nidhi:  You got it.

Marco:  You know, it's funny, um, I take cream in my tea when I can because since I've been off sugar, the cream is sweeter than the milk. So it'll add that sort of sweetness that I'm lacking from putting sugar into my tea, which I know is a little bit goes against the grain or a proper tea has milk in it, not cream.

Nidhi:  It's funny because I have noticed that, Marco, in your tea consumption and I thought it used to be odd until I noticed a couple of other people doing it and I thought it was very. Well, I still think it's a little bit odd, to be quite honest. But I understand your rationale. Now I guess the question is because my cultural background obviously is very in tuned with tea, um, and how to boil a cup of tea properly and adding milk. So in Indian culture, you always add milk to the tea first or after

Marco:  the tea has been poured?

Nidhi:  No, first.

Marco:  That's what I.

Nidhi:  But, uh, we boil it together.

Marco:  You boil. Wait, you boil the milk and the tea together?

Nidhi:  Yeah.

Marco:  Oh, I didn't know that.

Nidhi:  Uh, yeah. So you put all the spices in the water, bring it to boil, add the milk, add the tea and then it all kind of infuses.

Marco:  Right.

Nidhi:  Um, but I did not know that with Earl Grey tea, one of my favorite, you're not supposed to put milk, you're supposed to put lemon.

Marco:  Oh, I didn't know this.

Nidhi:  And apparently it's very scandalous to put milk, particularly when you're in the uk, in your Earl Grey tea.

Marco:  So, you know, um, Niddy, I want to say I want to put a marker in this episode because I'd like to do a future episode on Earl Grey tea because I know there's a wide history on it and I'd like to do a little research before we do the episode on Earl Grey tea. So I invite, uh, our listeners to, you know, keep, keep a watchful ear out for the Earl Grey episode which will be forthcoming.


There are two distinct types of corner stores that have historical feel

Now I wanted to add, ask you, Nidhi, have you ever been to one of those corner stores that's kind of got an old fashioned feel to it? Not that they're trying to be, but that, you know, it feels like you're walking into the past when you walk in.

Nidhi:  I've been to a couple of those. So there's two distinct types of corner stores that I've been to that have sort of a historical feel to them.

Marco:  Okay.

Nidhi:  One feels like the 1980s type type of corner store.

Marco:  Love it.

Nidhi:  Where you know, all the products are kind of off brand. You know, there's nothing really with a brand name there. You're not really sure what it's all like. It kind of looks like the produce might be from the 1980s.

Marco:  Okay.

Nidhi:  Dimly lit, um, very cramped with a lot of stuff on the shelves but no logical placement of anything. So it's not like you have, you know, I don't know, the baby wipes are kind of with the canned goods and doesn't really make sense.

Marco:  Sure.

Nidhi:  But then you have things that you kind of remember from when you were a kid. Like there's like Freezies from the 1980s in their freezer or something like that. And then you have. I've been to a corner store with more of that, um, uh, kind of like old time feel. Like that vintage feel.

Marco:  Right.

Nidhi:  Um, and they kind of have cool names. It kind of feels, has that western saloon type feel to it where it's like, you know, I think there's a corner store in Kleinberg, um, Ontario, like where it has like a bit of that feel.

Marco:  Sure.

Nidhi:  Um, but it, it feels like you're gonna see, step into you know, the 1800s or something like that and you go in and it's actually very posh and it's got all these really cool different kind of knickknack type produce. And then there's a corner store here in Toronto called the Drake Corner Store.

Marco:  Okay.

Nidhi:  Which is not a corner store. It's. Well, depending on. It's not a corner store where you're going to get milk and I don't know.

Marco:  Yeah, it's not in the traditional sense of corner store.

Nidhi:  It's sort of got these cool knickknacks and trendy kind of vintagey items.

Marco:  Artisan type.

Nidhi:  Yes, artisan crafts, uh, things like that. How about now? How about you? Do you go to corner stores often or is it something that is only a last minute thing for you?

Marco:  So I live between two grocery stores. Our house, uh, you know, is equidistant between two grocery stores and I can walk to either. So I don't have a corner store that I go to here, but at my cottage there's a corner store and we had been, we've been going to that corner store since I was. Sorry. Uh, since I was a little, little kid. So it has some nostalgia for, for it to me. And uh, you know, it has the ice cream parlor part of the corner, uh, store and it has sort of summer things you would need sunscreen, you know, lotion if you burn yourself and blow up floaty things and whatnot. But I love going to a corner store. And you'll find these sometimes in some smaller towns or rural areas where they have, you know, the glass jars that have the, um, sweets in it. They're like kind of like candy canes, but they're, they don't curve.

Nidhi:  Yes.

Marco:  And they're all different flavors from butterscotch to blueberry to sarsaparilla. And I, uh, love those corner stores. There was one that we went to one time and you know, I love butter tarts. And I think we had an episode where we talked about butter tarts and they had homemade butter tarts. And that is, that is my downfall. If I go to a corner store that has that kind of older sort of small town feel and they've got buttered tarts, I'm, um, easily walking out with $15 worth of buttered tarts.

Nidhi:  That's amazing. And it's almost like those type of corner stores. You know, the word candy shop has like an E at the end of shop. Like it's that old time kind of feel to it.

Marco:  You know, there is a restaurant, um, that has that feel when I go to my parent, my in laws, Amanda's parents, ah, home in Florida. I forget the name of it, but it is one of these kind of like part corner store, part restaurant. And it was an old post office that they turned into a restaurant. And they have like, you know, alligator and things that, you know very local cuisine and, and just the people that go there seem very, you know, throwback in time. They. Well, there's one, one gentleman that I seen there who looks like an old time prospector when you watch Amazing. When you watch, you know, those programs from the 40s and there was a prospector with a long, long beard and they were scrawny and they look like they were ready to sort of fight. And he just sits there and eats and it's like you, you can't help but look at him because he seems like a character from the film.

Nidhi:  That's amazing.


Have you tried alligator at a New Year's restaurant

And now you mentioned that this restaurant has alligator. Have you tried alligator?

Marco:  Yes, I have.

Nidhi:  What is that like, does it taste like chicken?

Marco:  No, it tastes, it tastes more like Pork to me.

Nidhi:  Oh, interesting. Um, is it very meaty?

Marco:  It's kind of. It's kind of got a meaty quality. I guess you could call it the pork of the swamp. Um, but it's got more of that kind of, uh, feel to it. It's not particularly flavorful on its own. You sort of have to dress it okay. Uh, with various things. So oftentimes it's deep fried or you'll find it deep fried, because you can deep fry just about anything and it becomes interesting.

Nidhi:  Right.

Marco:  Uh, but it's not like a. A seafood item where it's. I. I don't find it to be delicate, at least not the way I've ever had it. Okay. It's not my. It's not my favorite thing. But I do love going to this particular place for New Year's because they have a sort of. We have a New Year's tradition. We go there for New Year's and they have dishes that reflect all the sort of goals that you want to attain for the new year. So.

Nidhi:  What do you mean?

Marco:  Oh, you know, it's funny. Amanda would know this, but, like, you have to have, um. There's some greens on there. So the greens represent money. And there's no chicken on there because chickens walk backwards. So there's pork on there. And you want to be marching forward. And a pig will only walk forward. They don't walk backwards. And there's also, um. I want to say black eyed peas, because they represent something. So it's a combination of, like, five items. And, uh, I know I have a photo of it. If I find that photo, I'll post it on, um, because I took a photo of the menu that sort of described the. These sort of New Year's dishes.

Nidhi:  Sure.

Marco:  At this. At this place. And it was quite. It's sort of become a family tradition that we go there.


Amanda: Have you ever been to Boynton, Florida

Nidhi:  Now, you mentioned, obviously, um, that this is in Florida. Have you ever been to Boynton, Florida? Boynton Beach?

Marco:  Boynton Beach? I think it's not. I think it's nearby. I've seen signs, but I've never been to Boynton beach, because we have some

Nidhi:  listeners from Boynton beach that I think we're gonna have to do a Boynton beach fun facts and figures component of this show.

Marco:  I love it.

Nidhi:  Um, so you've never been, though?

Marco:  I haven't been to Boynton. Uh, I've been to Sebastian and Palm beach and Fort Pierce, and, um, I believe those are all sort of, um, cities and towns near Boynton Beach.

Nidhi:  Now, at Boynton beach is a city in Palm Beach County. So maybe if that's sort of the area that you're describing, then that would make sense.

Marco:  If it's on the Treasure coast, then, uh, for sure.

Nidhi:  Now, Boynton beach was founded by, uh, a American, uh, Civil War major named Nathan Boynton.

Marco:  Oh, that's where it gets its name.

Nidhi:  That's where it gets its name. I would like to have a beach or a town named after me. I don't know. I don't know how you get that done anymore.

Marco:  I think you have to go somewhere,

Nidhi:  like, you know, and discover it.

Marco:  Discover it and start a settlement and have people come, and then you can have, like, Canada Town.

Nidhi:  Yeah, exactly. Apparently, when they settled, um, that area of Florida, they planted pineapples to make, I guess, a pineapple grove. Do you call it a grove?

Marco:  You know. Ah, plantation.

Nidhi:  Plantation.

Marco:  You know, what's interesting is that that stands to reason, because that area is known for its orange and in particular, the grapefruit groves. So it's a area that is really sort of, um, conducive to growing a tropical citrus.

Nidhi:  Sea fruit.

Marco:  Yeah, citrusy sort of fruit. So I've never seen pineapple in that area. And to my knowledge, the only place in the US that grows and cultivates pineapple is Hawaii.

Nidhi:  Uh, well, we'll have to find the pineapple plantation next time you go to Florida.

Marco:  Yeah, I'll definitely, uh, pop into Boynton Beach. I'll make a point of going so that I can at least sort of connect with any listeners that might be from Boynton beach or just check it out and talk about it on a future podcast.

Nidhi:  Um, now, I believe that Naten Boynton actually, um, founded a hotel there.

Marco:  Okay.

Nidhi:  Um, I don't know if the hotel actually still stands. That would be interesting for us to know from any of our listeners who are from there, um, if that hotel is still in existence and if it's still running or if it's more of a museum.

Marco:  Yeah. So if you're listening from Boynton beach, tweet us at Listen and Sleep and let us know if that hotel. Do you know the name, what the name of that hotel was? If it's changed names, perhaps. Perhaps.

Nidhi:  You know what?

Marco:  Because I know that, um. Oh, where were we? We went to Gloria Stefan's hotel. We checked that out, Amanda and I. Um, and that is in, I believe. Oh, my goodness. Was kind of a fancier part of Florida.

Nidhi:  Jupiter.

Marco:  No, no, I, um, can't remember. It'll come to me, I'm sure.

Nidhi:  I just Threw out Jupiter there, not knowing if it is.

Marco:  Actually, what's funny is Jupiter isn't that far, but I think it's not on the coast.

Nidhi:  I think it's because doesn't. Isn't there that big Jupiter island where they have those like, uh, like Celine Dion has her home and just a bunch of very, very wealthy, famous people.

Marco:  I think that's in Miami, though.

Nidhi:  I think that's it.

Marco:  I think that's a little inlet of Miami. Look at me talking about Florida as if I know it. I just basically, you know, I've been to Florida. I love Florida. Jacksonville is beautiful. Um, the Treasure coast is beautiful. I'm excited to see Boynton Beach. Um, and I've been to Miami and I've actually driven to the Key, so all the way to Key west, which was a, which is a great, A great drive. If you ever get to do some, um, a great drive. That's what. That's one of them. Um, but what's funny is I don't really pay attention when, um, I'm in Florida because Amanda knows it so well. So I let her take the lead. And even when we're driving, I'll be like, oh, which direction? And she's like, well, we're heading south, so we should be following the direction too. And she'll pick the place. You know how you know which direction you're going on based on cities?

Nidhi:  Yes.

Marco:  I don't know if you ever do that here where you're like, okay, if I'm going out east, I'm going towards Kingston or something.

Nidhi:  Um, yes, I do do that. And next time you do go to Boynton beach, it's the Boynton Hotel.

Marco:  Okay.

Nidhi:  However, I have a feeling it's not in existence anymore.

Marco:  But maybe it's something else.

Nidhi:  Maybe it's something else. Exactly.


Boost Mobile is sending experts nationwide to deliver and set up customers phones

Nidhi:  Big news. Boost Mobile is now sending experts nationwide to deliver and set up customers new phones at home or work.

There's a large snowbird population in Florida where they spend the winter

My relationship with Florida, I haven't been in a really long time now growing up, uh, and even now I know quite a few people who have sort of second, ah, homes out in Florida where they spend the winter, of course there's a large snowbird population of course, um, that goes down, down snowbirds being sort of retired.

Marco:  For our listeners who don't know what

Nidhi:  a snowbird is, it's not an actual bird. It's the retired or older population will sometimes from Canada will go down to Florida to their second homes for the winter to enjoy. So they'll spend six months in Florida, six months up here in Canada.

Marco:  I should clarify, it might not just be Canadian residents. It might just be people from the northeast or the northern parts of the, of the US and Canada who will fly down south. And I think it's not specific to Florida either. I think if you go to Myrtle beach you could be considered a snowbird who goes to the, to the warmer parts in the winter months.

Nidhi:  I've only really been to Florida. Um, well, I've been a few times when I was young. We Used to go to Orlando because of Disney World. And so, uh, we used to spend some time there and went a couple of times with my family to Epcot and Magic kingdom and well, SeaWorld. Even though SeaWorld isn't really, I guess, part of Disney World.

Marco:  Right.

Nidhi:  But uh, and Universal Studios, which isn't part of Disney World, but uh, nonetheless. So I know Orlando, although I don't remember it that much considering, um, that I'm much older than being Disney age anymore. However, I've also been to Miami on a, uh, business trip, which was interesting, but now that I'm remembering Marco. We actually took a family trip driving down from Montreal to Orlando. And it took us about three days. And I remember quite distinct dinkley because we were. We left, I think it was a March break trip.

Marco:  Right.

Nidhi:  And we went and left I think mid March. Uh, and we were going down to Florida for two weeks and we were driving with another family and it was really cold when we left because March in Montreal, Toronto, sort of eastern coast, Canada is still a cooler month.

Marco:  Oh, for sure.

Nidhi:  And I remember distinctly getting out in um, South Carolina and the weather had changed because we had stopped, I think before that, five hours or six hours before that and it was still cold. And then we stopped again in South Carolina and the weather had turned really warm.

Marco:  Oh, wow.

Nidhi:  And so, uh, it was really interesting to feel that very distinct weather change in a seemingly short amount of time considering that we were driving.

Marco:  Do you recall if you drove through Boynton on the way, uh, to, to your destination to Orlando?

Nidhi:  You. Oh no, you wouldn't. So it would be too north.

Marco:  It would be too north because I know when we drove. Oh, it's Vero beach is where that hotel that Gloria Stefan has. Ah, I just came to Vero Beach. We often go because it's close to where my um, in laws live. And ah, I believe the name of our hotel is um, Costa d' Este or something like that. I think it has the word Costa in it. Anyways, it's a beautiful hotel. We had some coffee and tea there, I think.

Nidhi:  Did you put some cream in that tea?

Marco:  Most certainly did.

Nidhi:  Good.

Marco:  Um. But uh, yeah, I love, I love being in warm weather when it's cold back home.

Nidhi:  Yes.

Marco:  And my disappointment is, is if I ever go down to a warm place like let's say Florida, and it's December or January here and it's not cold when they have a warm week.

Nidhi:  Yes.

Marco:  And I'm down there, I feel like

Nidhi:  I've been robbed of something.

Marco:  Robbed of something? Yeah.

Nidhi:  So or the opposite. When it's cold up here and you go down thinking it's gonna be warm and it ends up being, you know, rainy weather or very cold, then you feel again you've been robbed.

Marco:  That happened in San Francisco. San Francisco's not particularly warm.

Nidhi:  No, it's actually very cold.

Marco:  I know. And so because you think California.

Nidhi:  Absolutely.

Marco:  You're like, oh, we're going to California, have T shirts and shorts. And then it's summer and you're in San Francisco and it was not warm.

Nidhi:  No. And it's funny because I have a cousin, ah. Who lives in Sunnyvale, California. And Sunnyvale is warm and it's very close to San Francisco. So we took the train up to San Francisco for the day.

Nidhi:  Right.

Nidhi:  It was freezing. But then if you go a little bit out of San Francisco, particularly if you're going up to Napa, let's say, and it becomes warm again. So it's a very particular microcosm of climate.

Marco:  It's pretty neat. I know that we went for from San Francisco to Sausalito, which is just, I think it was like a bridge away or something. I can't remember. It was a beautiful drive and we're like, let's go to Sausalito. And Sausalito was warm and beautiful and we were strolling and ice cream. And then we went back to our hotel in San Francisco and it was like freezing. It was like, what, what did we do here? But, um, still very beautiful. I love San Francisco.

Nidhi:  San Francisco is a cool city.

Marco:  It's a little gem that I think everyone should visit because, you know, a lot of people go to California and they'll go to Los Angeles or they'll go to San Diego. Uh, and San Francisco being so north, people will, you know, they won't, they won't encompass it into their trip. If they're going to Southern. Southern California.

Nidhi:  Yeah.

Marco:  I recommend going to Northern California and just exploring that area.

Nidhi:  I've been to Napa as well and it's such a beautiful, beautiful area to enjoy, um, a wine experience, etc. So it's, there's a lot to offer in, in California.


Niddy says Florida is a wine producing region

Marco:  The vineyards. Like, did you go to vineyards and stuff?

Nidhi:  Yeah, I did.

Marco:  You know, it's interesting. Niddy we're talking about Florida and then brought us to California. But I went to vineyard in Florida last time I was there.

Nidhi:  Did you know? I didn't know that Florida was a wine producing region.

Marco:  Uh, neither did I. And with good reason. They, um, could only grow certain grapes and they're not the sort of grapes that make the wine that I enjoy.

Nidhi:  Okay.

Marco:  Uh, so the wine that I had at that particular vineyard, they. The interesting wine was one that they mixed with a mango.

Nidhi:  Oh, okay, Exactly. So is it red or white?

Marco:  No, it was white with a little sort of almost a peachy tinge, but it was more white, I would say. It was definitely like, you look at it.

Nidhi:  You don't look impressed at all.

Marco:  Um, I wasn't. But, you know, that just means that there's more vineyards in Florida that I have to explore until I find the right one. Um, but I love going to vineyards, and, and it's interesting because I'm not a huge wine connoisseur, but although I do like wine, and I do know the wine that I like, but I've been to many vineyards, and it's funny.

Nidhi:  Well, you know, we should really talk about this on an. On an. On a subsequent episode, because you obviously were a tour guide in Italy, and I'm assuming that you went to quite a few vineyards as part of that particular, uh, employment opportunity.

Marco:  Yes.

Nidhi:  Uh, so I think it would be. And I know that you've gone to quite a few. Few olive oil. Um, yes, Grove.

Marco:  I call them groves.

Nidhi:  Okay, so those are groves. Now, what's the difference between a grove and a plantation?

Marco:  That's something someone's gonna have to, you

Nidhi:  know, let us know.

Marco:  No, I'm gonna say, like, when we do the vineyard episode, we will explore the difference between a grove, a vineyard, a, um, plantation, a. I don't know what else. But. Okay, you know, what, um, makes an orchard, like, what makes them. I think it's. I think it's indicative of, uh, what you're growing, what you're growing.

Nidhi:  I agree.

Marco:  But, um, but we'll, we'll explore that in a future episode. Certainly. Uh, it's been quite a tour this episode.

Nidhi:  It has.

Marco:  Uh, from the corner store to Boynton Beach, Florida, special hello to our listeners out there. All the way to Northern California.

Nidhi:  Exactly. Well, as always, we encourage you to find us on itunes at the Insomnia Project. And, uh, feel free to write us a review if you have anything to say or if you're enjoying the podcast

Marco:  or if you have a show idea that you'd like us to cover.

Nidhi:  A show idea? Yes, absolutely. So you can find us on itunes, the Insomnia Project, or, uh, on Twitter isttenandsleep. The Insomnia Project is produced by drumcast Productions, and this particular episode was recorded in Toronto, Canada. Until next time. Mhm.

Marco:  Sa.
