I picked up eye shadow, cream bronzer, and concealor. All incredible quality - I'm very happy with each of them.

I visit this Japanese restaurant at least once a week. I love their maki, tempura, miso soup, and edamami. I usually get the veggie bento box, but will sometimes simply order maki.
The food is incredible - fresh rice, hot tempura when in rolls, fast fast fast, and at a great price.
The only problem I have experienced with this place is the service. There is one server in particular who consistantly appears to hate her job. This comes across quite evidently in her service of customers. Once, while eating with a group of friends, she spilt a pop on one of the members at the table, and simply walked away - without an apology, or trying to clean it up.
Clearly this has not affected my love for the food here, as I still visit at least once a week.
Wonderful!

Am an avid reader, and love books. I make an effort to support local book stores and buy books, as authors are struggling with the online generation.
However, I had a horrible exprience with manager Lynn at this Chapters location, which prompted me to write a letter to the company, and send a copy to the Runnymede location.
In a time when consumers are the driving force of success, here is an example of a driven away sale - I will no longer visit this Chapters location as a direct result of my treatment by this manager.

LUSH Fresh Handmade Cosmetics - Toronto

Though the service at Lush is consistantly awful, I can't stop using their products! As a vegan, localist, and environmentalist, I enjoy 'locally made' products (Canadian sometimes is as good as it gets - though made in BC), mostly natural, and the option of a vegan product.
Lush's offer of sampling a product before you buy it, and their return/garuntee provides reason enough for me to return again and again.
i live by their shampoo bars (about $8-$10 each) and their vegan conditioner.

Fresh Juice Bar

Fresh, with 3 locations, manages to fit into the niche that toronto is lacking for vegans. I go grab their $3.50 sandwiches and salads past 5:00pm, or I can run in and grab desert to go when I'm craving their vegan carrot cake.
Focusing on health conscious Torontonians, Fresh groups their food into a few categories: juice/smoothies, rice bowls, and... other (this is an unofficial 'jamie' category).
Unless you enjoy cold entrees, steer clear of their rice bowls. Not for the faint of heart. Vegan/vegetarian, and health conscious - good choice.
My fav? The chickpea curry wrap, without the wrap, on a bed of lettuce. TO DIE FOR.
