With a marketing line like "your door to more", the 2014 Nissan Versa Note is a small car with a rather big claim to live up to. I'll admit it - I was a tiny bit skeptical when I picked up this car. After all, its sticker price is below $20,000 ($18,680 for the model I drove) and that usually … [Read more...]

An Infiniti of Summer Days
I'm missing summer. Hard. What with the back-to-school and the back-to-work and omigod the tired - I'm looking back on the lazy, hazy days with some serious summer-envy. It seemed to me then like an infinity of days filled with nothing more (or less) than … [Read more...]

I love the long hot summer weekends of relaxing and just chatting away with nice icy cold bevvy in … [Read more...]
Humidity and keeping the shine away. Ugh.
I truly understand when people talk about dry heat versus what we get here in Toronto. We've just had our first heat advisory of the year (yeah, finally). Remember?
