I’d also like to recommend Alan Cross’s “Ongoing History of New Music”. This podcast started out as a long-running Toronto radio program on one of the local alternative/indie stations, but has morphed into an amazing podcast. I’m working my way through the entire catalog of episodes right now, and even if it discusses…

I love Evernote. I like to joke that I keep half of my brain on the internet, and with Evernote in the picture, it may be true. I use it to store recipes, lists (to-do, shopping, packing, etc), notes and codes i need for other software and services, taking notes for work, helping my analyze and keep track of different…

As a resident of Toronto, you now know what we all know about Rosie Dimanno:

I am really glad to see that the next vampire slayer series is going to be helmed by someone who loves the original. After reading this, I have high hopes for the series. 

I maintain a playlist of music by female artists: Kickass Lady Music. It has a wide range of genres and artists. I hope that anyone interested in hearing great music by female artists will give it a try.

Just when you think there is nothing else to learn about Meghan Markle, she goes and puts her Toronto rental on the market.

It’ll probably go for a lot more than that, also. It’s a detached home in a nice neighbourhoood, so.

I’m so sorry. As a mother, I cannot even comprehend your mother’s attitude, actions and callousness toward you and your family. :(

Minor detail, but Bernardo was Karla’s husband, not her boyfriend. I didn’t realize she was back in Canada. I wish she’d stayed away.

As I understand it, in the film a competition was held for kids to name it. This is the name that won.

It’s funny how I can tell with the first shot of the house that this was filmed in Toronto.

Joico leave-in detangler. It makes my hair soft, removes tangles as advertised, and, best of all, it eliminates static electricity. I’ve been using it for years, and it is very important in the winter.

This was an excellent story, and an enjoyable, empowering read. That said, I can’t get over the egregious use of “Netflix and Chill”. ;)

This is the ballerina creature from “Cabin in the Woods”.

What is going on with her hip here? I can't figure it out.

The problem with being really short is that when you're in the late stages of pregnancy there's none of that elegant baby bump that taller ladies have, instead you pretty much become all belly.

My son was oblique - not just breech, but diagonal, halfway between breech and transverse, with his head sticking out of my side. If I had been pregnant with him before C-Sections were an option, it is very possible that we would have both died in childbirth. I am thankful that C-Sections are an option, and mine, like…

I've never actually felt physically nauseous from music, television, pop-culture, what have you. I thought it was a metaphor. But no, I actually felt sick to my stomach when listening to this. Ugh.

I give up. I am now an Ariana Grande fan, and this delightfully campy video was what made it a done deal.
