Tornadoes in Toronto and a Sleepwalking Adventure
This was my city last night We had an incredible, massive storm hit the GTA last night. I knew it was a big one but I didn’t realize just how epic it was until I started hearing the news reports this morning. It all began around 7pm last night. The sky was dark-a heavy darkness.…

New Icon!
I love the show Mad Men. I love it because its entertaining and dramatic, and also shows what it was like working in an ad agency in the 60s. I also love it because not a ton has changed since then! Men are still paid more (I don’t love this part so much), people are…

Bombay Sapphire Event Review
“Gin-cident”: a negative experience with gin; usually as a result of inferior juniper berries used in the production of gin. Or by being a stupid teenager. I’ve had one, and I’ll bet you’ve had one too. I’ll admit it; a few weeks ago, I did not have a very good opinion of gin. I thought…

Mother’s Day Gifting
Well, it’s that time of year again. A time to honour our mothers for squeezing us out and taking care of us for 18-odd years. I’ll give you the lowdown though: this is a marketing scheme. Really, it’s all about making money off people’s sentimental feelings. While honouring your mom seems like the warm and…

Mow the Lawn!
This is utterly fantastic on so many levels. As an ad person and a consumer I think it’s brilliant! Not only am I entertained, I also want to buy one! Hats off to the agency and client with the guts to pull this off! ————— This post written by Ginger at Ginger Won’t Snap. Like…

Putting Things In Perspective
It seems that my Tuesday Secrets post (that I accidentally put up on Monday!) has hit home with a lot of people. I had no idea that so many others felt the same way I do, and it got me thinking. From the comments, it seems that a lot of us harbour regrets about either…

OPI Overload
I’ve recently come into a large number of oh-so-lovely OPI nail polishes. My neighbour (whom I normally dislike somewhat) seems to work for Trade Secrets or some sort of cosmetics distributor (otherwise how to explain the sheer quantities of OPI???) and had some extras she was going to get rid of. Luckily my trusty sidekick…
