Finding a dating spot in the city can be impossible, sure we’ve all got our favourite spots but finding somewhere that is the perfect mix of romance and good food is never easy. Last week I joined several other Toronto bloggers and media folk at Michael’s on Simcoe for the launch of their new menu and after an incredible meal…

Dear Mayor Ford…
Dear Mayor Ford, This is not the least you can do. An apology is the least you can offer when you step on someone’s toes, when you accidentally bump into a stranger on the street or when you eat the last pickle and leave the jar in the fridge, these are things were the LEAST you can do is apologize. Repeatedly…
Nella Bella SALE!
Starting at 8AM tomorrow for one day only my favourite Toronto hand bag designer will be hosting a super, mega, extreme and only slightly crazy sale on their website. We’re talking prices as low as $4.95 CDN, that’s basically like handing you a pretty bag and asking you to donate half the price of a movie ticket in exchange for…
Soya Skin
Thanks to the team at Tdot TV and their unbelievable TIFF lounge last month I was introduced to Soya Boutique. Soya is a skin care brand developed by former model, and downright stunner, Melani Chong. Melani worked as a model for many years and found that the frequent travel had a terrible effect on her skin, so she started making her…
Ice Ice Amish, Baby!
On Tuesday I headed to a special pre-screening of DIY Network’s new show, Vanilla Ice Goes Amish. Yep, that’s a for real show and that’s really the name. I went assuming that I would probably enjoy mocking Vanilla Ice being ridiculous and, hopefully, rapping about the difficulties of Amish life; I left with an appreciation for the Amish people and…

But I’m back now. Last night Boyfriend and I tried Fresh Canteen for dinner; Fresh Canteen is a service located in Toronto that allows you to…
#TDotTV Lounge Experience
This weekend was all #TIFF all the time, seriously guys it was amazing and exhausting all at once. I usually work TIFF because my clients often sponsor events and lounges but this year I got to do a little TIFFing on my own; I hit the CFC BBQ, a Hollywood Reporter Party, the Melissa DiMarco suite, the Mongrel Media party…
#TDotTVLounge
How excited am I for TIFF? Very. Seriously a lot. ALL OF THE EXCITEMENT. I love how Toronto comes alive during the festival, I love the fashion, I love the energy but most of all I love that my city becomes the thing of legends and stories. On Saturday I’ll be hitting up my first TIFF gifting lounge thanks to the fine folks…
TIFF 2013 – Dallas Buyers Club
The first trailer for Dallas Buyers Club has hit the web today and since I’ve been, not so, patiently waiting for this I felt the need to share it with y’all. What do you think? Will Dallas Buyers Club wow festival goers? Does McConaughey have the acting chops to pull off this kind of story? Personally I’m in camp McConaughey,…
#DLTCanada
In a post cronut burger world, some brands still aren’t afraid to have a little fun with food or at least Taco Bell isn’t afraid to. Today Taco Bell Canada announced the launch of the Doritos Locos Taco, if you’ve been absent from the internet for the past year the Doritos Locos Taco is a taco shell made out of…
