This is My Canada

There is something about Canada that warms my heart, and after spending the past few years travelling it quite extensively, I’ve found some real gems. My friend Pamela from SpunkyGirl Monologues asked me to share some of my favourite things about Canada, so [...]

True North Strong and Free

There are so many amazing ways to spend Canada Day in my home and native land; but in my opinion, nothing really beats escaping the city life for some cottage time with the family. It’s amazing what some quality sleep, sunshine and food can do for the soul. I finally have a chance to sit [...]

An Ode to the Caesar: Part 2

For those who missed My Ode to the Caesar’s 40th Birthday last summer, basically I’m obsessed with this cocktail. Known to many Canadians as the hangover cure, this cocktail is my staple summer drink at the Cottaggio and a perfect patio drink. When I recently travelled to Australia I was heartbroken to discover they don’t sell [...]
