I’m a firm believer that you can tell a lot about a person by their choice in coffee. At Starbucks, the level of personalization available means that’s even more true. I’m a Grande Bold kind of girl or, if I’m going to treat myself, a triple tall lactose-free skinny caramel macchiato (with extra foam, please). […]
Feeling the need to detox? Me too. Even though the Toronto weather makes it feel like it will never happen, today is the first day of spring and sunshine is on the way! I love spring cleaning (even though I can be a bit of a messy person otherwise..shhh) and I’m excited to share that […]
Happy National Cupcake Week, Toronto! One of my lots in life is that I can’t say no to a cupcake. The delicious personal-sized morsels of disaster are always so prettily packaged and cute that I find it hard to resist. Also, their size makes them oh-so-easy to justify, especially the minis.
