I went back to that bagel place from Day 1. This time I came later, around lunchtime, and while they were still busy, there wasn't a line and I was seated right away. I got pretty much the same thing, except with a salad this time. I think it was the crab salad, although I … Continue reading Montreal Day 5: Biosphere
Montreal Day 4: Patisserie and History
Day 4 started, as is becoming a pattern, with food. I went to a cute patisserie called Maison Christian Faure and got their "Lunch Royal" which included a coffee or tea, the plat du jour, and a pastry. It was delicious, although a few of my table neighbours went for the salmon and I kind … Continue reading Montreal Day 4: Patisserie and History
Montreal Day 3: Art, Good and Bad
I think we all know by now that I kind of love art museums. I lost count of how many I went to in Paris and my friend practically had to drag me out of one in Chester when, after two hours, I'd only seen the first two of five floors. One of the reasons … Continue reading Montreal Day 3: Art, Good and Bad
Montreal Day 2: Barbie Expo
I set off about an hour later than I did on day one, due to yesterday's post going up kind of...late? Early? Both? Anyway, I didn't have breakfast and reached Centre Ville around lunchtime, so I went to the second of three places I knew I wanted to eat at. I went to the bagel … Continue reading Montreal Day 2: Barbie Expo
Montreal Day 1: Bagels and Murals
OK so I've got pictures on my camera of my recent adventures BUT I forgot the little cord that gets pictures from my camera to my laptop. So here are the pictures I took on my phone instead. MONTREAL, I AM IN YOU! This wasn't today and I'm not posting the days in order because … Continue reading Montreal Day 1: Bagels and Murals
Splat.
The line between genius and stupidity is a blurry one. It's hard to tell, but I think I'm on it. It's hard to see from this angle. I'll know for sure in twelve months. I've been away in the middle of nowhere again. Again, I apologize for not writing more. I don't have an excuse, … Continue reading Splat.
Outfit Of The Week: Shifter
I've been trying to wear this dress in an OOTW for years. It goes so well with so many different things, and it can be worn up and down, casual, office, or more semi-formal. I also wanted to show off the perfect shift fit, not loose, but not so tight either. Just enough to wrinkle in the … Continue reading Outfit Of The Week: Shifter
Canada
Sometimes I just want to scream. Canada, great as it is, feels like it's closing in on me, sucking me in. It's a black hole that I got too close to, and have now fallen in with no hope of escape. You would think the vastness wouldn't cause claustrophobia, but there's so much space, so … Continue reading Canada
Outfit of the Week: Limo Rider
On Saturday I attended my cousin's Bachelorette Party! And we partied in style. An enormous limo was rented for the evening and fifteen of us, including the future bride, piled in. We went around the city and basically had an awesome time partying. Of course, when you know you're about to go party around the … Continue reading Outfit of the Week: Limo Rider
Missing Winch
A strange and familiar feeling is hitting me. It's homesickness, and the reason it's strange is because technically, I am home. I suppose this is what happens when you have more than one home. When you stay in one for too long, inevitably you begin to miss the other. Unfortunately, my other home, England, is … Continue reading Missing Winch
