bunny love

the real easter bunny likes smelly wool socks, pens with rubber grip, arugula, warm summer nights and playing with her kitten friend. i am obsessed with her.


happy easter! hope you all feasted well and enjoyed many a laugh with family and friends.

5 girls
10 bottles of wine
successful saturday, crippling sunday
excessive behavior and gut wrenching laughs, totally worth the headache

one of a kind

today i had the pleasure of wandering around the city with my good friend lindsay. we started off with a feast of pastries at an east end bakery and then our standard starbucks run. after an hour or so of running our mouths we went on down to the beach to explore its snowy terrain. it is actually like the arctic by the lake. mounds of ice and crazy waves, perfect for a mini photo shoot. after we had sufficiently frozen ourselves we hiked it up to yorkville to explore the posh shops and look in every shoe store for jeffrey campbell booties. from here we walked down bay for a change of scene, south to queen where we parted ways. it was a good day in toronto. i have a renewed love for our city.

what is it that makes us lose touch with our surroundings?

i personally think that when it come to toronto, winter really takes its toll. we all become bundled up little foragers who just want our snuggies and three seasons of third rock on demand so that we can avoid the outside world. we become bitter and resentful of canada and wish that climate change would just kick it into high speed. but when summers come around you cant find a happier crowd. every patio packed every night of the week, the city is full of life and noise. there are art, music and cultural festivals to celebrate the greatness that exists and thrives here all year around.

sometimes we forget what great things toronto has to offer but its at times when you least expect it that you rediscover what it is that makes this city unique.

to friendship

on this family day i would like to take the time to recognize some of my non-blood essentials who are lucky enough to be together this week. five of the greatest girls in the world are all in london, enjoying the magnificent city and probably some of the best laughs that they have had in a seriously long time. i cant remember the last time all six of us were together. its been years now, but none-the-less our friendships are still strong.

some things that will remain cherished memories of mine forever...doing the running man in our oxfords by use of valve oil in the backstage of scs. making a fort with sleeping bags in the fire escape. eating different inedible substances for mere pennies. parting ways as youngsters but visiting each other at various universities, in a wide range of countries and when more easily accessible, our corners of the city.

have the best visit ever. i love you all.

i fell asleep beneath the flowers

this is generally what my daydreams look like. me, floating around paris in boho maxi dresses, eating la duree macaroons, drinking a noisette at delmas in the sorbonne with bijoux, ma petite chouchou aka my bunny.

the only thing i would add to this scenario would be a crusty baguette, a wheel of brie, and a few bottles red for the perfect picnic with all my besties in luxembourg gardens.
