I jumped on the subway after dropping off the little guy at school and headed to the famous and historical stomping grounds of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Only it's been converted to the ultimate Loblaws store. If you haven't been, you should check it out. You'll want to spend some time here as it is a … [Read more...]
Lash Out
Sometimes you find a product that changes your life (in some little way), delivers everything that it promises, and the heavens open up a little. Such is the way with Benefit's They're Real mascara.

To Cut or Not to Cut?!
This morning I decided what I would do if I won an obscene amount of money in a lottery.
