Dancing At Harbourfront

April 28, 2012 | Arts, EntertainmentLeisure

  Despite the chilly weather, last night my friends and I strolled lakeside to capture the sunset prior to being riveted by Toronto Dance Theatre's 'Rivers' production at the Fleck Dance Theatre at Harbourfront Centre on Queens Quay West in The Terminal Building. 'Rivers' is a creative collaboration of Ann…

Oh So Excited! Sculpture

December 09, 2011 | Arts, Design, Landscape, Retail, Shows, Worthy Websites

Text Alert! OMG. I'm Oh So Excited! I spontaneously indulged myself with a delicious piece of Canadian Sculpture from Troy Seidman at Caviar20. Check out this 26" steel and enamelled sunburst sculpture hand-made in Quebec in the 1970's.   This isn't the first piece I've purchased from curator Troy. Check out his online shop by clicking HERE for other…

Dance, Then Dine In Leslieville

November 05, 2011 | Arts, EntertainmentLeisure

Although circumstances derailed me from attending 'Art Toronto' last weekend (Sniff!), I kept my Friday evening clear to attend the production of 'Pteros Tactics' choreographed by Christopher House for the Toronto Dance Theatre presented at the Winchester Street Theatre. Christopher House is an amazing choreographer. In fact, he was just voted as 'Best…

The City Of Culture

October 14, 2011 | Arts

I know... we're all victims of it. We live in our big cities boasting about all the cultural amenities at our disposal, but in the complacency of our day to day lives we miss some great experiences. Last year I said "Enough!" and vowed to celebrate as much of our amazing city as possible. In…

Nuit Blanche Part Deux

October 02, 2011 | Arts, EntertainmentLeisure

Ok, so it's not often you'll find me posting a blog at 3am in the morning but I'm just home after a five hour tour celebrating Nuit Blanche and I'm absolutely glowing over how dynamic the installations were and how engaged Torontonians embraced the event. Nuit Blanche (http://www.scotiabanknuitblanche.com) continues until…

Sunday Brunch & The Queen West Art Crawl

September 19, 2011 | Arts, RestaurantBars

Okay, so I'm not a Cheerio's fan but I thought this a great pic to chat about Sunday brunch. As a realtor, my action-janet-life-on-the-go doesn't always allow me leisurely Sundays to drink Mimosa's and savour waffles with maple syrup and bacon (Hello? Canadian here!). This is because weekends are often booked chock-a-block with appointments unlocking the doors of…

Dazzling Distillery District

February 12, 2011 | Arts, RestaurantBars

Being in the thick of February, particularly in Toronto, isn't an easy climate to weather. It's brittle freezing to the point where you worry your fingers might shatter if you remove your gloves, and the moment you walk indoors those of us with eye wear need a mini scraper to remove the instant icy…

Come Up To My Room Again K?

February 01, 2011 | Arts, Design, RestaurantBars

If exploring the Interior Design Show wasn't enough fun for one this weekend past, going to the 'Come Up To My Room' exhibit at The Gladstone Hotel elevated my fun quotient even more! After my pals and I toured the ID Show we grabbed brunch at The Drake Hotel (it is…
