It is still cold here in Canada and my blood is in need of some warmth. I may be dreaming of warm beaches and cold beer but reality is that it is still nasty cold and cloudy outside.
This weather has had me craving a shot of brandy in my coffee. So as it was a Saturday, I indulged my passion and picked up a little bottle of smooth goodness from the LCBO. And ohh baby...it hit the spot. I added it to my coffee and felt the warmth kick in and the sun come out. I truly recommend this VSOP French Brandy from St. Rémy!!!

It was cold, It was between meetings and I wanted somewhere warm to sit down with a coffee and relax. I was on Queen West just west of Bathurst and I spotted this place on a corner. I walked in and was confused. Was it a hair salon? A clothing store? A cafe? It felt like they were trying so hard to be everything that they failed at being the one thing needed most in that area. A coffee shop. I looked over what was available, wasn't impressed and left. The tables and chairs did not look comfortable and I just needed to relax. It is sad because it is the only cafe in that area but it failed to impress. I ended up walking to Ossington and Queen and going to a chain coffee place.
Rather sad when an area that used to be known for comfy coffee places has become so full of itself it has no idea what to be.

I bought this last summer because a friend owns it and she stopped letting me use her bottle everytime I came for a visit! Very cruel as I so love this scent. It is light enuf that you won't overpower a room and drive everyone away but still there. I would find myself on the subway wondering who smelled so good. Then realize it was me! It seems to evolve and change as the day goes on and becomes more delicious with every hour. I always get compliments when I wear it and to the best of my knowledge noone has ever been offended by the scent. This perfume is worth every penny you will pay as you don't need more than 2 squirts to last all day.
Tip - put it on the back of your neck under your hair. Leave a little tease as you walk by people and even better in a close up hug.

I received this product as a gift and I love it. I tried it last night for the first time and altho I didn't get a full 8 hours sleep, I woke up looking fresh and dewy. I am super impressed. Many masks promise to give you clear, fresh, moist skin and fail to deliver but I really loved how this one came through for me! Made me a super happy woman. I will be trying the Black Pearl tonight and report on it tomorrow!!!
A little tip - there will be product left in the bottom of the envelope after you take out the mask, close it up the package and pop it in the fridge to pat onto your skin after you take off the mask and during the next day to freshen up your face. (Not over makeup but if you have clean skin). Also when you take the mask off after 20 minutes, squeeze out all the lovely product and rub it into your hands and arms. Don't waste a drop!

I bought a knock off and when it fell apart I contacted Olivia Garden to find out where to purchase the real deal. The sales manager sent me a real brush in exchange for my horrible knock off. Don't ever buy anything but a real Olivia Garden brush. Unless you like wasting your money.
On to the brush. I am in love with this brush. I rave about it to anyone who will listen. I was experiencing a lot of hair loss and breakage before using this brush. Since using it, my hair looks amazing. I still take good care of my hair using excellent products but this brush makes a huge difference. It goes thru tangles like a hot knife thru butter. I don't brush my hair when wet but if I needed to for any reason, I would trust the Olivia Garden Finger Brush to get the tangles out without ripping or breaking my hair. This brush is the best. Oh, lastly, it is guaranteed for life!!!

I have been using this oil for a few years now. I like to do stir fry and I love making quesadillas. I had read about how many oils were not good for the body.. over and above the fat content. Then I read about how safflower oil is actually good for you.
I did some research and found this product at the No Frills grocery store. I have been using it ever since. I am not much for diet but I do feel if I am putting food into my body, it has to be something which is actually good for me. When I use this oil, I am confident the product is good for me at the same time as it ensures my food tastes the best it can!!!

I purchase several packages of this product every week. It is the perfect base for so many of the meals I cook. I can toast it lightly in some oil and use it to dip into salsa or guacamole, I can add cheese and chicken and make quesadillas...or I can use it to make breakfast wraps. There are so many uses it has become the only bread product I now use. -

I started using this product about 5 years ago. I had been using different dishwashing liquids but found they often left a residue on my glasses. One time I got sick and found myself wondering if it had to do with the chemicals left behind on my dishes.
I did some research and found this product. It is made from 97% natural ingredients. If for any reason there is product left behind after rinsing, I feel confident it will not be as harmful as many harsh chemicals found in other dishwashing liquids.

This was a Christmas gift and I am in love with the product. It smells like pure heaven, it is a great moisturizer and equally fabulous for giving a massage. The scent is relaxing and I keep it beside my bed so I can reach for it and rub it onto my arms and fall asleep to the scent of a field of lavender.
It isn't so heavy that it rubs off on my clothes but it is good enough to keep my skin feeling moist all day long. Using it for giving a massage is a treat to both the massage therapist and the person receiving the gift of massage. I bring this when I have a professional massage and ask for it to be used instead of the products they have available. I love that it is free of toxins and 72% organic.

I purchased this product as it is free of many of the harmful chemicals I have been trying to avoid. And who knows, maybe it is good for someone with super short hair. I personally have hair to the middle of my back and need two handfuls of this shampoo just to begin to feel it is cleaning my hair. I used it 3 times to be sure but each time, no matter how much product I used, my hair didn't come clean and I felt there was a build up of product once I dried my hair. I tried a different shampoo today with the same conditioner I had been using and my hair looks and feels clean with no build up. My conclusion? This shampoo is not good for me. I will be taking it back. -
