Fancy Cuppicakes?
They seem to be all the rage these days, cupcakes. I see them at parties, weddings, as cupcake cakes and business gifts. Slews of specialty cupcake shops have opened up (at least here in Toronto!) to cater to this new trend. Generally I am in favour of cupcakes. They’re the perfect combination of cake, candy…

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…

Mmmmm Chocolate Review & Give-Away!
I think it’s clear to everyone by now that I love trying new things, and doing product reviews, too. As a consumer I think it’s very important to research things before you buy, and to see what other people are saying about it. Word of mouth is an invaluable way for me to get information,…

RuMe Bags!
I don’t really know how it started, but at some point I began getting tired of my reusable bags. I’ve got a decent collection of them, a couple of the recycled President’s Choice bags, one from the Metro grocery store, and a bunch with branding and logo on them–the kind you get for free a…

Ladies Only
To all my female readers out there, this is a head’s up that O.B. is giving out their cute little purse packs again! I’ve written about them before and they’re such a cool little idea I thought I’d bring it up again. I swear, if I actually got my period anymore (thank you, BC pills!)…

ChickAdvisor Shopaholic Event
I’m a member of the Toronto edition of ChickAdvisor.com; which is a really great review site for my area (and now across North America, too!). I love going there to scope out reviews on restaraunts, spas, salons, products, you name it! I also contribute by writing some reviews of my own. (Check it out! My…

Trying a new lotion
I’m running low on moisturizer and had a chance to stop by Wally World this weekend, so I thought I’d give that Olay Quench lotion a shot. FB seems to really dig it, and I like the idea behind it so I bought a small bottle of it. So far I like the smell (smells…
