Set III


food | Random Meals




Haven't been doing much really except cooking and eating. Oh boy, does that ever sound pathetic, or what? I've been taking it pretty easy. Lounging around the house, spending time with family, reading books, taking baths. Life has been nice, despite all the stress rushing around me. I will post recipes or something soon. My iPhone is gone and now my Blackberry has died; leaving me with my Sony digital camera which I can't find right now... Will take more care to update more often. For now, enjoy my not-so-aesthetically pleasing shots of a few of my kitchen adventures from the past week.

music | Climax

day(s) in the life | Fire, Dolls and Fish


Had a good week; made a few purchases, took an entire day to go out walking and enjoying the sun. Will do a post of my latest purchases soon! Right now I am too busy organizing more serious matters.

Hope everyone is well.

project | Midas Touch


Had purchased a can of Sabotaz Gold Chrome Spray Paint a few months ago with intentions to spray ALL THE THINGS. Considering I bought the can in the winter and didn't want to spray paint indoors, I had to put off this project until it got a little warmer outside. Today it was another GORGEOUS and SUNNY day in Montreal after a really fun St-Patrick's weekend, so I couldn't resist sitting out on my very grimy and dirty balconey to golden-ize a few things and I am quite pleased with the results so far. Now it's just about finding a nice place for them in my apartment where they can happily collect dust... Shouldn't be too difficult!

life | Excuses I

My health hasn't been at its best as of late and now recent events in my life have prevented me from keeping up with my regular routines which also means updating my blog as frequently as I usually do. I will still be posting as often as I can, however, definitely not as much as I have in the past.

Hope everyone is doing well.

fragrance | Jo Malone & LaVanila



I am and have always been a huge fan of florals and vanilla. For some reason, I find a lot of my friends hate florals and it confuses me a bit. I could see how it may be too young or cliché for some, but I enjoy them very much right now. 

These two scents are the best of the bunch that I have found so far. The packaging on Jo Malone is, as always, gorgeous. Although I loathe the colour purple, I do like the box of the LaVanila perfume and the bottle isn't horrible, whatever. It's the actual product that counts, right? And the scent is phenomenal. I tend to lean towards florals when the weather is warmer which is why I love the Jo Malone for Spring. I use vanilla scents as my secret weapon against my boyfriend during the colder months, but at these in-between stages I'm never sure what I want to smell like, so this combination works very well for me.
