Product Review: Avon Supershock Mascara
I mentioned ages ago that I would start doing unpaid reviews on products or services that I thought needed to be reviewed… so here is the first! I am totally in love with this new mascara by Avon. Supershock Mascara ($9.99) is their newest mascara and comes in your basic colours (navy, brown, black &…

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas
Mother’s Day is coming up soon, so I’ve been thinking of what I can get mummy dearest for her special day. In the past I’ve gotten her spa packages, pedicures, manis, etc. but it’s getting a bit old in my opinion. And also now that I’m on Jenny Craig I just can’t afford that much…

Carnivorous Cravings: T.O.’s Best Burger
I am an unapologetic carnivore. I like my meat and I like it delicious. One of my favourite forms is in the delightfully humble Hamburger. I came across this wicked post on Blog T.O. today about the best burgers in the city. I am SO going to check some of these places out. So far…

Think in Pink?
Spring must be in the air… I am finding myself oddly attracted to pink again! Today I volunteered at a marketing conference all day, and in return they gave me a $50 gift card for the Eaton Centre! Yay! So I went with my coworker N to blow our cards on something frivolous. We were…

Schtickers Love!
Ok, I was browsing The Windowshoppist not long ago, and she had a post featuring a seriously cool laptop sticker from Schtickers.com.

Financial Update
So, I’ve updated my progress bars to the right, there. I’ve made a couple of stupid moves lately, so I’m in money-saving mode right now. I’m not in debt and probably never will be, but right now I feel as though I haven’t been diligent enough in managing my money. Bad Ginger! Anyway, since I…

Can you live without TV?
Dear FB wrote an excellent post the other day on the true costs of watching and owning a TV. I thought this was a truly excellent post because I, myself have realized the cost savings of not having cable. When my roommate and I moved in, she had already been without TV for a while.…

PayPal = DEATH GLARE
I hate PayPal and eBay now. It’s official. They dick you around and steal your money, all without you having a clue to what’s going on. Long story short is that I tried selling some of my clothing on eBay (since it’s nice stuff and too big [yay!] for me now). Most of it sold…

JC Update
Well, I’m quite overdue for my promised post on my Jenny Craig diet. I signed up a couple of weeks ago in the hopes that it will help me shed about 80 lbs. total. I know! That’s a lot! You see, I’m ok in the exercise area; living in Toronto I walk almost everywhere, and…

Bloody + Hell
aha! It isn’t what you think! I’ll bet you thought I was speaking negatively about something… you’d be wrong! I just got back from Evil Dead: The Musical and I’m covered in ooey gooey sticky blood and it’s fantastic! I am not a big fan of musicals most of the time, but this really knocked…
