Davids Tea founder David SegalThis ain't your granny's tea shop. 

A hot trend (literally), a young founder and a desire to make tea the drink of choice for the fun and fashionable.  We sipped a spot of tea with David Segal, the founder of DAVIDsTEA, at their first location (Toronto's Queen St. W!) to find out the story behind this hopeful new chain and to get a few tips for budding entrepreneurs.

Baked goodies are always a great gift for thank yous, house warmings or Just Becauses.  Some of us have the natural gift of being able to whip up a moist carrot cake with cream cheese icing or a batch of chocolately cupcakes with elaborately decorated sugar flowers on top.  MOST of us like to think we could do that but then end up spending hours in the kitchen covered in flour with...

There's nothing more comforting than a good cuppa java. It is especially enjoyable when you have the satisfaction of knowing you are drinking organic coffee, or better, Fair Trade Organic Coffee. But what does that all really mean? "Fair Trade" and "Organic" are terms we'd like to think we understand but when it comes down to it, most of us don't know anything beyond what the product...

Chez Pim's posted just a simple picture of some truly scrumptious desserts at a cafe in Santa Cruz. I almost want to head over to Expedia.com... just for a look-see.

Real flowers may be better for our figures, but this find from Fabulously Broke is just too delicious to pass up...

Totally not sponsored, I just think they're a cool way to send 'flowers' to someone who isn't really into flowers (like me).

Summertime is when we crave our favourite cold, creamy, sweet treat - ice cream. It’s a refreshing and delicious way to cool off in the sun. But instead of the standard Neapolitan double-scoop in a waffle cone this summer, why not try a unique and exciting, cultural twist on the old time favourite?

Mochi ice cream is a popular Japanese dessert made with rice starch and filled with...

Another good one, from Chez Pim...

The best thing about coming home from this trip--besides my kitty Ella, of course--is getting back in time for tiny Blenheim apricots. They are a specialty of the Bay Area, and their season is so short you blink and they go *poof*.

The Blenheims are an old-fashioned kind of apricot that are getting increasingly hard to find...

Chez Pim braves the Paris metro in search of The Perfect Croissant...

If I had a nickel every time someone asked me where to find the best croissant in Paris. My answer goes like this: the best croissant in Paris is simply a good one within sleep-walking distance of where you happen to be staying.

Here's something fresh to do on a Thursday night: The Kitchen on West Queen West serves free drinks to the Ladies every Thursday night from 9-11pm. Serious! Their sangria is extraordinary, made with fresh squeezed orange juice. It is alone worth a visit. They have a lovely patio too, which is open until 10pm and a live DJ. We'd be silly not to take them up on this, no?

The Kitchen is open...

Bargainista tries something new...

It used to be I barely received pitches about anything. Now everyone is trying to pitch me all kinds of stuff.

So, as a non-beer drinker you can imagine my surprise when I got an invitation to Brew 2.0 an event hosted by Molson's. And what perfect timing, the night before the Canada Day weekend...
