I got the BEST luxebox (aka the Canadian version of Birch box) in the mail today.
Full bottle of Essie “Pink-a-boo” (so pretty and glittery, perfect for spring/summer)
Seche Filling base coat - helps with making your nails look prettier and your nail polish stay on longer.
Chi silk fusion - great treatment for your hair.

New Orleans
T MINUS 18 DAYS BABY!!
Sadly, girls’ weekend to NYC didn’t work out so we are rescheduling for another weekend during the summer (fingers crossed). I decided not to let the may 2-4 long weekend go to waste so Harrison & I spontaneously (like, within 2 hours of suggesting going to New Orleans) booked a flight from Buffalo & 4 night hotel stay. We’re staying right smack in...

TGIF!!!!
I’m so happy it’s Friday!! Sitting at home at 4:30pm on a Friday watching Wheel of Fortune. Pretty exciting if you ask me :)
Excited for:
Baton Rouge tonight! I’ve already browsed the entire menu and I think I’m going to get some delicious Ahi Tuna.
USA shopping with Harrison’s dad’s fiance. So excited!! I shall try and stop myself from purchasing more Coach...
confession time
I love cats (obvi) and I love Taylor Swift.
I think this is most adorbs pic ever! LOOK AT THAT SCOTTISH FOLD. Basically the cutest thing eveeeeer. floppy ears!
Is it weird that I just spent the last 25 minutes creeping Taylor Swift’s “facebook” and pics of her cat?
Monday Check-In
Obsessing Over: My 2 cats. Okay, I know it sounds creepy but it’s not what you think. This past weekend, H & I adopted another cat from the shelter. What I pictured: Waffle & new cat (Blueberry/Blue) snuggling together on the couch. What actually has happened: Waffle stalking her and Blueberry hissing every time she sees him. It’s actually quite sad. I know it’s only been...
Eek!
The girls & I are chatting about a possible long weekend trip (Victoria Day) to New York City.
Me = Fingers. Toes. Crossed. Double Crossed.
I really hope this works out! It’s right in the middle of my events but I really think I need a mini vacation. (like really) Plus I’d only be taking off a Friday and I’m sure my events will survive with a short break.
Okay Travel...
food blogs
I’ve been on a food blog spree as of late. I can’t seem to stop reading recipes and developing new meal ideas.
Harrison and I have a fantastic setup:
I cook, dust & deal with the dishwasher. He vacuums, mops, does the laundry & cleans the cat litter.
So basically he does everything I hate to do and vice versa! Pretty damn good if you ask me! (but seriously who doesn’t...

Animals everywhere! AKA Heaven
It’s so great to come home to:
Wyclef aka Little Devil & Evil Mouse Hunter of the East
Genevieve aka Sir Sleep-a-lot & Mr.Puker (Look how fluffy he is now Bets!)
Marley aka the best dog EVER! (Clearly can’t think of clever names for him)
But none is so special & adorable & whom I miss even at work sometimes (and esp now after 4 days apart) - Le Waffle aka The...
Ottawa
I think being away from home for so long and only ever getting to visit 3-4 times a year really makes me appreciate Ottawa a little more. I actually missed being back here! Especially at my parents’ house with acres of forest (it felt a bit like cottaging), Marley the dog & our 2 cats! Not to mention the home-cooked chinese meals… Mmmm…
I had an amazing trip back! Although...

Oh what I would give to be back in Greece. (Above picture taken in Corfu) Can I please win the lottery?
Harrison and I are still trying to figure out where the heck we actually want to go this Summer! We have run through a million ideas: Vegas, Costa Rica, Spain, Caribbean cruise, Hawaii, Thailand, Bahamas, etc., and can’t seem to pick just one.
Mmmm… suggestions?
1 down, 2 more to go.
I’m SO relived to be done my first event of the year! Monday was an absolutely INSANE day that consisted of running around for 13 hours straight with minimal food, water & rest. Needless to say, I basically ran on adrenaline & anticipation. I could barely walk at the end of the night and felt like my legs were going to collapse underneath me. LOL.
I’m seriously a lucky girl...
