Off to paradise!

See ya later! I am off to Paris for the week! Me and Vince and Mom and Dad have rented a cute little apartment in the Marais and fully intend to drink and eat as much bordeaux, stinky cheese and baguettes as possible! We only have one goal- soaking it all in slowy in the name of pure french foodie pleasure! We are visiting Frenchie, Chateaubriand, L'as de Falafel and other temples of yummyness!
See you back here in a week with a huge smile and 10 more pounds!

Love and Hugs

P.S. Every single parisian Pain au Chocolate consider this a warning! You're in danger of going in my belly!

Making babies in Mykonos?

Good Morning guys. Vince and I are desperately trying to find a honeymoon spot for July. It's harder than it looks! Seems to be hurricane or monsoon or rainy season everywhere we look. Except for Mykonos! What do you think? Looks pretty sexy to me!

What are you watching these days?

Okay I know I know Kenny VS Spenny is not at all the most educational, buzz worthy tv show on right now but whatever, it's awesome! Vince and I downloaded the first 3 seasons and we are on a marathon! I just can't believe the shit they do! I love them and all their crass psycho drama and I don't care who knows it! Hey man they are on Showcase so that must count for something....right?

It's Friday! Fun Fun Fun!

What about you guys? What are you up to this lovely Friday afternoon?

I'm always in the mood.....

After this diet is over I am definitely making a blood orange margarita! I think it's kind of festive no? Anyone care to join me?

Loss of smell? No way!

Goodness gracious! My pranic healing is taking me in all different directions and I am loving it! I am currently healing on a rotating basis, my Mom, my Dad, my brother, Vince and now soon my sister in law Britt! I asked them for a list of things I could help them with and my brother sent back a lengthy list to say the least and on it was loss of smell. Ryan's hockey career took so many things from him including his nose! When he was 17 he got in a fight on the ice in Hull, Quebec and the guy cracked his nose and viola! no smell! Can you believe it?
I can't live without smelling things. I smell everything. It's a little weird sometimes and I could not get by without the lovely smell of my crappy espresso maker in the morning! It's my true favourite smell. Oh baby that earthy acidic coffeness oozing out of the spout! Honest to goodness heaven.
I am hoping to help relieve my brother of this and hopefully soon you can catch him bending over every rose bush in Toronto smelling to his hearts content but until then I wanted to ask you what smell can't you live without? or even...what smell do you wish you never had to smell again?
Love and Hugs
