Craftiness

A friend of mine is getting married. It's so grown up --- or maybe I'm already old :)

Anyhow, I'm thinking Handmade Weddings might be a good gift for the bride-to-be before the wedding!

Oh, my new crush!

Yes. I have a crush on the Korean boy featured on the Hangloose website.
Well. Him and whoever does the styling.

There are some beautiful, beautiful items on that site. Sadly, I don't read Korean and shipping internationally is just such a hassle. BUT! I know yesstyle.com carries Hangloose. Go. Go check it out!

Oh, Toronto!

I think it wouldn't be hyperbolic to say that there's a magical city (to each their own, obviously) that everyone envisions themselves living in - if only for a short while. And I mean magical as if anything is possible and all that grand stuff. I've had my fanciful share of these cities but Toronto will remain my true love. But most times, I just return to the reality that Vancouver is home.

I certainly try my best to make it over to Toronto once a year.

Why?

Cos there are some talented and wonderful people that go eat Korean food with me. (Here, go listen to Matt's music --> pink deadwhale). And also, Toronto has the best Korean food I've ever had. And an endless supply of foodie-drool-worthy establishments (e.g., Nadege). And honestly, this yearning for Toronto was really spurred on by Thank You, Okay's blog.

Oh. And Hoof Cafe. And possibly a million other places.

Honestly, any city that loves brunch as much as Toronto does deserves this sort of unrequited love.

Oh, Toronto. I miss you.
Perhaps we'll reunite sometime this year.

TSFW: Birthday Outfit!

TSFW = totally safe for work.
In case you thought... it was like a birthday suit.

I've been very lazy. I will stop this immediately.

Oh, so creative.
