Bits & Pieces

14 06 2013

So we meet again, Friday.

Gosh there’s so much going on in Toronto this weekend that I’m actually getting a headache thinking about fitting it all in. There’s NxNE and Taste of Little Italy and Roncy Rocks and so much more. I want to do it all!

Hope you have a great weekend.

Here are some bits and pieces that made my week.

Funny post on gentrification.

Having a baby in Finland.

The 101 best written TV shows, ever.

What it’s like to go on a date with a particular Canadian radio personality. Eek.

That time Alyssa Milano made a workout video.

Stop. This. Now.

Pretty sure my friends and I already invented this drinking game.

IKEA makes me nervous too.

Bits & Pieces

Friday! Finally.

I’m visiting my mom this weekend. We’ll eat a lot of brie and she’ll pretend not to be annoyed when I insist on watching a Keeping Up With the Kardashians marathon or something. My mom’s cool like that.

Hope you have a great weekend!

Here are some bits and pieces that made my week:

Last Saturday, Doctor Who fans had the sads. Lead actor Matt Smith announced he was to leave the show following the next Christmas special. Boo. This post on Hello Giggles was kind of perfect.

….and then almost immediate speculation on who would replace him began. My choice would be this handsome fellow.

The sweet story behind Before Sunrise.

The 2013 ‘Dirty Dozen’.

Stunning aerial views of London.

This girl wins break-up letters.

On spoilers. (Thanks H!)

Well played, Shoppers Drug Mart.

I always look forward to Toronto Life‘s Reasons to Love Toronto list and this year’s didn’t disappoint. It always reignites my love for this (mostly) awesome city. Now if we could just get rid of the mayor……

I can’t wait to see This Is The End but I had no idea Jonah Hill was this much of a douche, and he’s kind of ruining it for me.

Bits & Pieces

Happy Friday lovelies,

Here are some bits and pieces that made my week:

A fantastic commentary on friendship and life changes.

Arguments for gun control. I’m surprised they were able to curb the list at 10.

A parody on the Dove Beauty Campaign, featuring the men folk.

Cringe-worthy engagement/couple photos.
Bonus points for using a Sleigh Bells song in your movie trailer.

Interesting take on the Sheryl Sandberg backlash.

How to get back on track with fitness and health.

What it’s like to live on a private street in Toronto.
Dummies at Coachella.

Recognize any of these people from your morning coffee run?

Things I Ate At The Green Living Show

14 04 2013

Yesterday I hit up the Green Living Show to visit MM, who was stationed at her company’s booth for the afternoon. After purchasing the niftiest water bottle from Green’s Your Colour (which I’m convinced is so advanced it can do magic or something), we hit up our favourite part of any event: the food section.

Here’s what I went to town on:

A vegetarian samosa from Magic Oven in Toronto, Ontario

Cheese fondue in a pumpernickle roll from Five Brothers in Oxford County, Ontario

Cheese fondue in a pumpernickel roll from Five Brothers in Oxford County, Ontario

Orange-soda braised Ontario turkey with aged cheddar and pickle slaw sandwich from Port Restaurant in Pickering, Ontario
