Happy Monday Everyone!

Hope you all had a lovely weekend and happy belated fathers day to all the amazing Papa's out there!

More photos from New York City today! Bryant park is one of my favorite places to sit, relax and people watch. I was so excited to grab ice cream and coffee with the boyfriend and rest in the beautiful park...well, sometimes things just don't work out the way you planned right? As we turned the corner (and after all he heard all morning was how pretty the park is in the middle of the city) mountains of dirt, excavators and dirtiness was waiting for us. Anna puts foot in mouth "I swear it really is pretty!" Luckily there was a sweet birthday going on by the merry go round which made for some pretty shots!

Hope you all have an awesome start to your weeks!

Enjoy! xo

Happy Tuesday Everyone!

I know today is supposed to be my "100 things post" however it was not completely finished so I will be posting it tomorrow morning! A few weeks ago the boyfriend and I found ourselves with a free Saturday (this does not happen very often) so we took a trip to the St. Lawrence Market where we indulged in peameal bacon and veal sandwiches for ~~breakfast~~ lunch. If you live in Toronto and have not had these sandwiches I HIGHLY recommend them. They are a staple and all sorts of deliciousness.

More photos in the BLOG OUTTAKE album on my facebook page if you'd like to see!

Enjoy! xo

Happy Monday everyone!

Hope you all had an awesome weekend. It's official, I am going back to the motherland this summer...GREECE. Very excited for the sun, the food, the ocean and most of all the photo opportunities (happy dance). So, today I will be daydreaming of Greece...won't you join me? I thought I'd share some photos from the island IOS.

Any summer plans for you all this summer?

Enjoy! xo

Happy Sunday everyone!

I have been editing away for most of the weekend in order to get back to regular scheduled blogging (hoorayy). Whenever I am in Starbucks ~~(which is usually 2-3 times a day)~~ I always like listening to what other people order...what is their signature drink? So ladies and gents, I'm curious...what is your go-to drink? Perhaps Starbucks isn't your cup of coffee/tea...Timmy's? Timothys? Second Cup?

Thanks to my cousin about a year ago I switched from my peppermint mocha to one pump white mocha americano...MMMmm delish and getting it iced on a hot day...perfection!

Hope you all have a relaxing Sunday!

Enjoy xo
