I love bread… ciabattas, foccacias, baguettes… freshly baked and fragrant! Jing Jing bought me a little souvenir from Niagara recently, and that girl didn’t know just how fantastic a gift it was for this bread lover. She got me a simply divine asiago and parmesan bread topper from Kurtz Ochard in Niagara-on-the-Lake. It contains grape […]

Once You Had Gold
It’s slowly sinking in through the whirl of things I’ve had to busy myself with… I’ll be saying good-bye to Toronto soon. I’m sad, but yet not as sad as I would have been if I had to say good-bye a few years ago. Why? Partly because I feel that it is time to move […]
At the Beach
Click on any of the thumbnails to enter the photo album! Today was an out and out Girls’ Day of Fun! I had breakfast with Jing Jing at Tim Hortons where Wanting and Zoe later joined us. Then the four of us went to 12:10p.m. mass at St. Patrick Church where to my delight and […]
Sunshine Days
The past week has been pretty much as good as it gets weather-wise. Sunshine and blue skies everyday (but one) with temperatures hovering in the mid-teens. I’m feeling pretty exhausted from all the things I’ve been trying to squeeze in… meetings with thesis group and supervisor, reading, errands and meeting up with friends as much […]
Sa Sa & Me
Wanting, Melissa and I have very curious interpersonal dynamics. And I swear Melissa brings the TNT. Cos it’s so easy to go crazy when she’s around. If anyone raises their arms or leaves even a hint of unprotected belly flesh (whether exposed or not), you will see the devilish gleam in Melissa’s eyes as she […]
Friends for Life
It’s that time of year again when good-byes are in the air… I’ve always been emotional at partings though now, more than ever, I am able to think of life’s partings with faith and hope. I really believe now that no matter what happens in future, nothing can diminish what was once true between friends. […]
RGS Band & RCIA: Life's Random Coincidences
It’s just an interesting connection in my life… two people I got to know in Toronto, who were both in RGS Band, but who hadn’t kept in touch with each other for years, and with whom I got to know deeper in large part because of their new journeys into Catholicism… which began in Toronto! […]
Yoga Challenge Completed…Thank You!
Heather, me, Janet and Myriam after our 2 hr Yoga Challenge (Marci left before this photo was taken) Thanks to my very supportive family and friends, I helped raise CAD$1,210 in less than a week for Rethink Breast Cancer and the Sunnybrook Regional Cancer Centre! Thank you all very much for your support, both financial […]
Yoga Challenge for Breast Cancer… Please donate! :D
Ever since my mom was diagnosed with melanoma cancer a year and a half ago, I’ve become more sensitized to the disease. I find myself donating more to charities supporting cancer research and cancer patients than I did in the past. Maybe that’s why when my yoga instructor told the class on Thursday that she […]
Happy Birthday to the 3 of You!
We had a perfectly lovely Alice in Wonderland tea party for three lovable ladies today, and I just want to say I wish all of you a very happy birthday and… Jing Jing: Who would have known that the decision to go grocery shopping together one rainy afternoon last year would have opened the door […]
