Okay, we're a couple weeks into school and I'm already exhausted! The extra-curriculars haven't even started yet except for the early morning cross-country practice at the school.

APP OF THE WEEK: Just-Eat

September 17, 2013 by Sonya Leave a Comment

So, during TIFF I was caught several times rushing to get dinner on the table for hubby and the kids. Sure, they can fend for themselves but with hubby's busy work schedule there are only  so many times you can order pizza or throw down a charcuterie board and yell "Smorgasbord" in front of hungry … [Read more...]

TIFF REPORT: Caitlin Cronenberg at NKPR’s IT Lounge Portrait Studio

September 13, 2013 by Sonya 1 Comment

The gifting lounges to the celebrities are all very different in what they have to offer. Readers who've been following us for a couple years now are always curious as to what goes on inside these lounges that are only open to the stars.

Survival of the TIFF-est

September 12, 2013 by Sonya Leave a Comment

I was joking around a few weeks ago mentioning to my friends that I was in "training" for this year's coverage of the Toronto International Film Festival. Being my third year of reporting I knew what to expect. I was on a few marathon movie binges and trying to eat healthy because once TIFF came … [Read more...]

In the Kitchen and Garden with Anne Parks

September 11, 2013 by Sonya 1 Comment

Who knew that a teenager's part-time job working at McDonald's would lead to a career for Anne Parks? If you don't know her name, you should. She's in charge of the company's Canadian menu development and she's not who you would expect in this role. In fact, I was surprised to learn that Parks is a … [Read more...]
