KANDL Artistique The lighting of a candle has always felt, for me, one of two ways. When I light a candle, I’m either focusing on something intensely spiritual, or am just trying to make my condo smell like vanilla so my boyfriend thinks I’m domestic. Don’t get it twisted – I’m both of those things,…

What To Do in Toronto: Sweaters n’ Snowflakes (Kiss Me Pop-up Becomes Fall n’ Leaves)
Fall n’ Leaves (or in Love!) This October This year, I had almost given up on getting cozy under a blanket on a hay bale ride, holding hands on a Hallowe’en haunt (for safety purposes, of course), and sneaking in cinnamon smooches in between sips of apple cider at the orchard as autumn leaves start…
Toronto Foodie – DUNK Burgers & Chocolate Restaurants
DUNK Burgers and Chocolate Last week we were invited to DUNK Burgers and Chocolate, a sweet little restaurant on Queen Street just West of Bathurst before you hit Trinity Bellwoods. It seems as though they still have a couple of service-related kinks to work through. I’d say, especially if you’ve imbibed on Canada’s latest legality,…
Jaymes White Spooks George Brown House at Séance

Jaymes White Launches The Beverley Street Séance
, Jaymes White and The Beverly Street Séance Anyone who knows me personally would be able to tell you that if something’s a bit out of the ordinary you can bet your bottom dollar I’ll want to be there. In a city like Toronto where I no longer have the consistent thrill of the…
Seoulcialite Stays: The Westin Harbour Castle Toronto
For as long as I can remember, The Westin Harbour Castle has been a beacon of unexpected special surprises. When I was young, I was sent down there by Kiss 92.5 FM. I met Ani DiFranco, Nelly Furtado, Glass Tiger’s Alan Frew, and Soul Decision who I had met before, but was always a bit…
HideSeek – Not Just Another Happy Place!
Do It for the ‘Gram or Pure Unadulterated Fun? I honestly can’t keep up with all the selfie spots in our city because they’re popping up everywhere. When I was out of town celebrating Mother’s Day, there was a pop-up designed in one of the local malls completely copied from the Museum of Ice Cream….
Year 1 After Korea: Things That Make Me Feel Normal Again
I can’t believe it’s been nearly a year since I bid farewell to Seoul-si, spent 2 weeks in Bali, and flew back to Toronto. As anticipated, the year has certainly had its ups and downs. Finding employment wasn’t easy, but I was open to anything and everything. I even spent a day working in a…
Making FFETCH Happen – Toronto’s New Wine, Booze, and Snack Delivery Service
Start Trying to Make FFETCH Happen About a month ago I was invited to a launch party for a company called FFETCH. The party was promptly cancelled due to venue issues, but my intrigue remained. What was “FFETCH” beyond a nod to the instant cult classic “Mean Girls”? I looked it up online and found…

Sweaty Sundays: My Re-Commit to Fit at Big Hit Kickboxing Studios
Big Hit Kickboxing Studios I’m a mess. At this point in time I feel like a bit of a fraud because I crushed my goals in Korea, and have completely negated the work I put into getting healthy in the 5 months since I’ve returned home. Guys – I’m fat again. I lost a total…
