anyone know where I can find a home flour mill?

Carole Stiles at healthykitchens sells great products, stands behind them. She was the first Bosch distributor in BC some 25 years ago!

if you go with one of her products opt for the Nutrimill -- capable of milling the oilier grains plus legumes (not just wheat)

Pepperoni in Victoria - help! ...need some of the good stuff !

What about the Whole Beast on Oak Bay Ave? Cory has the best cured meats on the island right now, if not the BC coast. Great range for all palates ...

The latest offering when I was in last was a batch of Italian style blood sausage.

where can I find pastry/bakery boxes

You can also order thru Golda's Kitchen (www.goldaskitchen.com). They are Canadian, so shipping not a problem, and you can buy individually or in pckgs of 10 for a bit of a price break. They also have cupcake inserts for the cake boxes, that allow the boxes to do double duty.
