I’m sorry, what? Plus-size women are the problem?
I just read an article that has my hackles up. Part of me thinks, maybe this is just an American thing? Plus-sized Canadians are well known border hoppers just to buy some affordable pretty clothes that fit; so plus-sized fashion lovers in the US do have some great clothing options that their sisters of the […]
4 Ways to Keep Yourself Safe While Using Free Wifi Hotspots
So, I’m starting a list of Free WiFi hotspots in Toronto, particularly in downtown, but there will be some locations listed that are much more east or west of Yonge Street. For whatever reason, 4G and LTE data plans are becoming more expensive these days rather than less, and now that I’ve recently become the […]
Enjoying a Good Cup of Coffee on Those Days that End with ‘Y’
So you know when your in-laws arrive to your home unannounced on a Friday afternoon and stick around for a few days? Yeah, no… I’m so very glad I had just restocked my fridge and cupboards the day before that happened. Don’t get me wrong, I love living with them whenever we have time to […]
Confessions of a Former Plus Sized Movie Extra

There are 300,000+ People Facebook Owes an Apology To
Like everyone else, I’ve been hearing about Facebook conducting an emotional experiment, and everyone is in an uproar, and asking the big question – was the study even legally obtained. All that anyone can do is shrug their shoulders and say, “Maybe.” Every time I heard mention of it in the past few days, I […]
The Moon In My Backyard
Viewing the moon through a telescope is something I highly recommend doing every once in a while, when the weather is good. I love my city, Toronto, to bits. But one thing that drives us locals a bit nuts is the lack of that beautiful night sky, that we all know is there beyond the […]
Kraft Improving the Art of Coffee with NEW Keurig Compatible Pods
Coffee is just coffee right? If you’re laughing, snickering, or yelling at your screen, wondering how could I make such a statement, then you, my friend, are a coffee connoisseur, and I heart you for it! Coffee is magic when you have the right ground bean filtered into your mug. I don’t mess around (too […]
To Get What’s On the Tin, Read It Thoroughly
Hey friends! So I did something rash-ish recently… I needed a change in my life, which usually means I either wind up with a wild looking haircut, a bold dye job, or both. This time, I went with colouring which, 9 times out of ten, usually works in my favour. I love experimenting, and there […]
