Oyster magazine did a shoot back in June with the latest Nike Free Runs and I absolutely fell in love with these babies. Over the past two months I've been really pushing myself to strengthen my body as I've had a few health mishaps. Running was something I used to enjoy until I gave myself a particularly horrible shin splint that put my running on what was then a temporary 3 weeks break. It turned into a much longer one as I discovered more a less painful/sweaty way to fit physical activity into my day: Yoga. I'll get into that another time because I'm trailing off topic here. Point is, I want these babies in every colour, and while that's unlikely, I've decided to begin to run again. God, I'm such a consumer. To be fair I don't even own a pair of real runners, only sandals, heels and boots. None of which will be good for running. Hi, new Nike Free Run 3s. I'll see you soon. Until then, I will just drool over these photos.

Social Media

Been really neglecting this blog. It's strange as I've had things to post about but had been suddenly feeling very private and reserved. I had deleted my old twitter account (munkeeeeee) because I felt a bit anxious about the endless amount of personal information available at ANYONE'S fingertips with these types of websites. I've since been slowly recovering from that fear of web invasion on my personal life and started being more active on social websites like Facebook, Pinterest (Oh my god am I EVER addicted), Reddit, Twitter and came here to write a post telling you to follow me! I'm much more active on these than I am on this blog, but I will begin posting more, promise!

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.

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!
