Monday Haul
After my Bike to Work Day event at Nathan Phillips Square this AM, I went to my office & was greeted with some amazing products. Last Friday, my coworker Paola shared a sale with us at G Fox Gems. The Silicone Crystal watch in Seafoam was on sale for only $20. It was so beautiful – I have to buy […]
The KONG!!
May 28, 2011
Make way for Laser’s 1st Haul!!! Laser got a brand new toy this week…..the Kong Wobbler!!! It’s the monster of all Kongs! It’s shaped like a normal Kong, but it’s designed to be both a toy & a food dispenser. You unscrew it & fill it with treats or food. Dogs knock it down using […]
Lip Balm Galore
May 28, 2011
I’m on a lip balm spree lately….100% natural lip balm. Check out my 3 new Burt’s Bees lip balm I bought this week! They were on sale for only $2.99 each at Shopper’s Drug Mart. I am so excited! Adding those to my stash of Softlips, my Kibo You Better Coco Lip balm from the […]
Starbucks Haul
May 7, 2011
I’ve been waiting & haunting every Starbucks I pass by for the last 2 months. I really wanted one of their To-Go Cold Cup Tumblers!! I went to Apricot Tree for dinner tonight. Lo & behold, there was a Starbucks right next to it. I had to check it out – so glad I did […]
BIXI, the better taxi
May 6, 2011
BIXI is a public bike system, now servicing at its newest location since May 3, 2011, Toronto! With 1000 bikes, 80 BIXI stations, & 1500 docking points within Toronto’s downtown core, say goodbye to finding bike lock posts & crazy taxi drivers! What a beautiful site…… I’ve never driven in Toronto due to the amt of pedestrians & traffic congestion. I either bike, walk, […]
Not too “Shaddy”!
May 4, 2011
Today was such a gorgeous day! En route to work, I took out my shades. As I put it on…CRACK! My new sunglasses from last year……..is no more! I wasn’t planning on purchasing yet another pair this year, but I guess a change of plans!! Not a terrific start to the day, but I’m still happy from […]
Grueling Saturday
April 30, 2011
I completely slacked off this week – mostly due to fun outings after work. The last time I went swimming was Easter Monday! To make up for this, I had a grueling schedule today: swimming in the AM and hot yoga in the PM. This leaves me exhausted & ready to snooze right about now! […]
Fur here, Wagging tails there
April 24, 2011
I checked out the 18th Annual All About Pets Show today! I was really excited at the entrance even after paying $12 for admission. (Disclaimer: most of my photos are blurry; I didn’t want to blind the animals with flash) The main features of the show were the dog demonstrations (in my opinion!). First up, […]
Yuck, Shoe Shopping!
April 23, 2011
A productive day today! I had a hair appointment in the AM – which is almost always a disappointment . I’m used to that, so I digress. This was followed by a doctor’s appointment – also a place I would rather avoid. So far not so good, right? My goal today was to go shoe […]
Adios Remington
April 19, 2011
Phew!! I just came back from my 9PM swim. I was satisfied with my efforts today….62 lengths (31 laps) in 50-55min. I tend to wash my hair late at night, esp since I frequently go night swimming now. In the morning…..a head of MESS! I straighten my hair every other day at the least (i […]
No Gears Swapped
April 17, 2011
MEC Gear Swap today at the Toronto location! It encourages people to recycle their used/unwanted outdoor gears (ie. cycling, cross-country skies, tents, backpacks, clothing). I arrived ~ 1/2 hour early, but a bunch of people were already there! I left empty-handed. I was in at 11am & out at 11:20am. I was secretly hunting for […]
Green Living Show
April 16, 2011
I had such a blast at the Green Living Show today!! The best part was all the free taste-tests!! Delicious! They were natural, organic, fair trade, &/or local. It was nice not to worry about reading ingredients for once! It was free admissions if you brought in an e-waste . Perfect opportunity to get rid […]
Milk Frother!
April 13, 2011
I dragged myself to a 1-hour swim last night. Oh boy, was I unmotivated yesterday: I didn’t want to get out of the house, the thought of getting wet disgusted me, & I didn’t want to put pants jeans on . With the “Just Do It” mentality (inside joke at work), I went on auto-pilot & got ready […]
