November 26th 2016: Shopping in Peabody and Saugus

We were heading north today,  so we started out with breakfast at La Qchara, a nice cafe in Melrose which serves Mexican food.

We got the Valencia Raw Juice (pineapple, carrot, pear, mint, apple),

The Mexico Chia Pudding (ginger chia Pudding topped with sliced bananas, Shredded coconut)

And the Huevos Rancheros (2 Crispy corn tortillas with a black bean spread,  two eggs,  salsa, Queso fresco, served with Sweet plantains and black beans).

Pretty decent and healthy meal,  with lots of interesting stuff on the menu.  Definitely would like to come back again some day.

Our next stop was the  Northshore Mall in Peabody for some shopping, which was decked up in Christmas decorations.

We also stopped by Danvers for a bit, getting a New England Clam Chowder from Lena's Original Subs, a small deli located within a Christmas tree shop.

Not bad, but nothing special.

Our last stop for the day was the Square One Mall in Saugus,

Where we checked out the froyo place YoPassion,  getting the Kumquat Lemon Honey with Aloe Drink, which was pretty refreshing to say the least.

 With that,  a day of Christmas shopping was at an end. Pretty sure there's more to come tomorrow.
