  • Vidal Sassoon: New Look!

    So, I did it! I went to the salon last night and had a pretty good experience. It’s much more posh than I thought it would be. There’s a coat check and assistants to get you drinks and stuff… My stylist was good, turns out she teaches at the school at the salon which made…

  • Having my ears lowered

    That’s right, folks. I’m giving the old chop chop to my goldie-locks tomorrow! Much like the wonderful and soon-to-be President Obama says, it’s time for change. I’m starting fresh with a new haircut. Now here’s the funny thing: I’ve decided to go to the Vidal Sassoon salon here in Toronto, and while I was googling…

  • JUSTICE † Disappointment

    I got tickets to see JUSTICE tonight at CiRCA. Justice is awesome, my friend saw them in Tokyo and he said they’re incredible live. I’m so pumped to go. I just got emailed the setlist, and I’m totally floored. They’re not on until 12AM tonight! I can’t believe it! Stupid DJ fancy-pants clubs! Seriously, who…

  • Sleeman Summerfest Recap

    So last night was pretty cool. Almost everyone I invited to Summerfest showed up last night, so we all sat around and listened to a band and drank beers, then myself and my friend M’s husband J graduated to double whiskey & coke’s, getting smashed and talking about cooking the whole time. It was totally…

  • Summerlicious is Delicious!

    Sometimes I really love living in Toronto. There always seems to be something going on, especially in the summer. Right now, Summerlicious is on until Sunday. What is Summerlicious, you ask? Well, aside from being totally fabulous, Summerlicious is a span of 2 weeks when a large amount of the fancy-pants restaurants and bistros in…

  • SATC Event Review

    OMG!! Twas A great movie, even for a non-fan like me! We got to the theatre at 9:30am, signed in then grabbed our complimentary popcorn, drinks, coffee and pastries and headed in. As expected, the place was packed! I will not reveal the details of the film, but bring some tissues for the dramatic moments,…

  • Melona Madness

    There’s a Korean grocery store in (where else?) Korea Town that sells Melona in boxes… So where do you think I headed after work today? Yep. I was just in sight of the store when Rogers called me and told me the repairman was waiting at my house *doh!* So I had to scurry home…

  • Mmmmarvellous Melona!

    Totally found a new treat today, folks! I was out for a stroll at lunch with a friend and she introduced me to the heavenly bliss that is the Melona Ice Bar. *drools* It’s a Korean treat that can only be found at a few places in T.O. What a shame! I found it at…

  • The Vespa Investigation

    A while back I blogged about possibly getting myself a scooter to get around the GTA in the pleasant months. I was hoping to get one pretty soon, especially since the TTC strike put a real kink in my plans. However, after a little investigation into costs and logistics, I’ve decided to put off my…

  • Investing in a Vespa?

    Anyone who lives in the Greater Toronto Area is probably now aware that the TTC did a sneak attack and went on strike at 12am this morning, leaving people at bars and clubs in the city stranded. It has caused our city to come to a grinding halt and inconvenienced thousands upon thousands of riders…
