My All-Time Favourite Cookbooks

Cooking at home has become one of my absolute favourite things to do for so many reasons, but I think the biggest one is that it reminds me of writing a book — in the sense that you create something from nothing (and get to marvel at your scrumptious finished product). There’s also a calming aspect to chopping and cooking that I’ve learned to appreciate more as I’ve gotten older.

How Living With My Boyfriend Made Me Embrace eReaders

For so long, I considered myself one of those people who turned up their nose at the advent of digital devices, proclaiming and affirming my lifelong commitment to physical books. The touch, the smell, there’s nothing that compares to the feeling of walking into a bookstore (or library) and feeling the weight of a book in your hands — or the satisfying snap of the spine as you turn the last page at the end of its journey. “Tapping” a book closed on a screen sounded like the most unsatisfying way to finish a book (IMO).

My affinity for “REAL” books was so profound I refused to even acknowledge the existence of eReaders for decades.

And then, I moved in with my boyfriend.

Toronto Public Library Campaign for Canadian Library Month

Thursday, October 3 is “I’m Library People Day” in the City of Toronto to celebrate Canadian Library Month and support the Toronto Public Library, which I was amazed to learn is the BUSIEST public library system in the WORLD!

5 Bookshops Celebrating Independent Bookstore Day Across Canada

Like vinyl and polaroid film, Canada's indie book scene has seen a resurgence in recent years. I find the nostalgia of a neighbourhood bookshop charming; a comforting reprieve from the daily grind.

A Book Lover's Valentine's Day

So when it comes to V-DAY, I like to approach it by giving attention and love to ALL of the relationships in my life (including MYSELF! “Self-care” and “self-love” are starting to become commodified terms in themselves so I’m trying not to use them as often, but I’m all for the underlying meaning!) Any extra excuse to tell the people in your life that you love them, I am all about.
