And I don’t mean vegan cheese. Yes, people, one of the mandatory ingredients for the third show of Chopped Canada was a childhood favourite, processed cheese slices. It’s so gross to see! So rubbery! Blech. But the chefs had to use it in the first round. Judged once again by Roger Mooking (along with Lynn […]
…considering how Nordstrom seems to be more small-footed girl friendly than most department stores in North America (at Nordstrom, sales people don’t give you looks if you’re asking for a 4 1/2 or 5). And they have specialty size shoe sales once or twice a year, too (I was right in time for one when […]
Yes, tomorrow! As usual, there will be plenty of restaurants (over 200!) to pick from. This season, the prices are $15, 25 and 35 for lunch and $25, 35 and 45 for dinner. My husband and I will likely be stopping by Trevor Kitchen and Bar again. Known for their complimentary cotton candy at the […]
Over the past week or so, social media’s been abuzz about Lottie Moss (half sister of 90s supermodel, Kate Moss) signing with Storm, a modelling agency. Lottie, who is 16 years old, is 5’5″, a pretty average height. However, that’s absolutely short for a model (her waist is a bit bigger than most models as […]
I tuned into Food Network Canada last night at 10 PM Eastern, expecting to see Chopped Canada. Instead, I got Restaurant Takeover, which, according to Twitter, aired earlier in the week. Boy, were people on Twitter upset! #choppedcanada was filled with Tweets joking that Shaw (the company that runs Food Network Canada) had chopped Chopped […]
Seriously, that’s what my husband and I overheard a guy say the first time we went back in October. And I guess to a certain extent, he’s right – high ceilings, light-coloured walls and definitely, a very modern vibe. Located at the former home of the Cumberland Theatre, the shop and café (called the Nespresso […]
I constantly read in retail-related blogs about the “lack of availability” in Canada when it comes to shopping for clothes, shoes and accessories. And honestly, I can’t say I understand what they’re talking about. Sure, there are stores that aren’t widely available in Canada, but that’s changing. J.Crew and LOFT, for example, have been opening […]
I’ve always had a problem with body image activists (so much that one particular organization has banned me from commenting on their Facebook page). Sure, they mean good by encouraging more size diversity in fashion, but are their campaigns healthy? Or are they just as bad as having too many tall, thin, blonds? Balance is […]
I don’t usually talk about reality shows, but I have to admit that I LOVE Chopped. The premise of the show features four professional chefs who have to use very “interesting” items to prepare meals that are judged by a panel of celebrity chefs. The show starts with four contestants, and after each course (appetizer, […]
So Brad turned 50 recently, according to IMDB. However, despite being well into middle age, he still gives off a very immature vibe at times, especially when it comes to his looks. In many public appearances, he just seems…sloppy. I know that he and Angelina have several young children, but it doesn’t mean that he […]
