I’ve been away so much lately, I decided to spend my extra hour this morning giving Scruffy the Wondercat my full attention. I can’t think of a better way to spend our “fall back” time than reminding ourselves how lucky we are to have someone...

Driving past my local rep theatre here in the Beaches this morning, this is what I saw. Guess what I’m NOT doing tonight. That’s right. Scary movies creep me out. In fact, I’m such a light weight, Scooby Doo gave me nightmares. But some great...

Did I mention that each place I visited on my BC road trip tour could easily become home? First it was Fernie (despite being regarded as “hippy heaven”) the landscape is rugged and stunning. Then I found Rossland, the town at the top of the mountain. I...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! As I sit here in my post-turkey track pants, I’m struck by just how challenging it was this weekend to find some fall colours to snap. Yesterday morning I woke up to brilliant sunshine so thought “let’s go” and my...

This is my friend Pippi and she got hitched last night! I was the fortunate one who got to go along for the ride and take a few snaps along the way. I picked this one first because anyone who knows Rachel will love this shot. I do have a few more to share here...

With all the charm and thankfully without the awkwardness of this Paul Giamatti flick, my weekend winery tour was lovely. The Niagara region is stunning at this time of year. The backroads provide vistas of rollling hills dotted with ripe vines in perfect straight...
