The One of a Kind Show kicked off Thursday at the EnerCare Centre (formerly known as the Direct Energy Centre) at Exhibition Place. For those of us looking for holiday items, especially items to add to the tree (or, if you’re like me, for the tree – my tree doesn’t go up until the first […]
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 […]
I recently had the pleasure to speak with Elie, one of the owners of Toronto’s newest cookie, tea and froyo bar, The Red Bench, located on Yonge, south of Bloor. The name, The Red Bench, was inspired by an actual red bench near co-owner (and Elie’s wife) Deena’s home in Paris, France. According to Elie, […]
I don’t typically share personal dinner photos that take place in my home, but I thought I’d show readers what I made over the long weekend. My husband is a non-observant Jew and I’m a lapsed Catholic who was educated in an Anglican girls’ school (I guess I’m an unofficial lapsed Anglican). However, despite not […]

In Grade 10, our science teacher told us why many of us were so tired during afternoon classes. It was because we had lunch, and during the digestion process, the food turned into sugar and that was what made us sleepy. In school, we weren’t allowed to have caffeine with us in class, so I […]

Cupcakes are always a popular treat. They are delicate, cute, and can be made in almost any flavour that can be imagined. Although I usually like to keep the cake flavours pretty basic- vanilla or chocolate are best- the frosting is an excellent vehicle for fun flavours and interesting colours. Basic buttercream can be coloured […]
