One of my fabulous team members is having a birthday tmrw so with Bentley's help aka The Flower Centre , we are surprising her with a delivery of the most gorgeous sunflowers today!! ๐ป๐ป๐ป Thanks to the senior kindergartener, he helped me decide on how many bundles and we agreed more was better! ๐ป๐ป๐ป Shopping locally and at small businesses is the absolute best way to get more smiles in your day. ๐ป๐ป๐ป
Gah! A walk. A movie. A girls night in. A last minute weekend away. An invite to a speaking event from people you want to know better. A visit from a forever friend. A random text checking in filled with heart emojis. They're all part of the friendship therapy package and we all need more of it. ๐ฉท๐ฉท๐ฉท
Please forget your scarf at my place and come back for it ... and leave something else ... every time. ๐งก๐งก๐งก
And hello gorgeous Saturday in Toronto ... I am drinking in all the sunshine and sunflowers and blue skies because that's what we do in October. All three stores are open today 10-5 so swing on by and we can talk weather and Halloween costumes. โ๏ธ๐ปโ๏ธ
Today is National Day of Action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and Gender Diverse People (MMIWG2S), also known as Sisters in Spirit Day.
Today is a day to honour missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls, and show support for their loved ones.
I have found the Assembly of First Nations website to be a really great place to learn more and to find out where and how I can help so if you're interested, please visit www.afn.ca โค๏ธ. There is also a link on their website to download the Calls for Justice Progress report to see what has been done thus far to address this issue.
๐ค Indigenous women are four times more likely than non-Indigenous women to be victims of violence.
๐ค Indigenous women make up 16% of all female homicide victims, and 11% of missing women, yet Indigenous people make up only 4.3% of the population of Canada.
๐ค Indigenous women are twice as likely to experience violence from their current or former partner.
๐ค A little more than 13% of Indigenous people experience violence from their current or ex-partner, a proportion twice as high as non-Indigenous people (5.7%).
๐ค Indigenous women are more likely to experience physical and sexual assault than non-Indigenous women.
๐ค 56% of Indigenous women have suffered physical assault, and 46% have experienced sexual assault. By comparison, about one-third of non-Indigenous women have suffered these assaults in their lifetimes.
๐คFrom 2001 to 2014, the average rate of homicides involving Indigenous female victims was four times that of those involving non-Indigenous female victims.
๐ค In the territories, this over-representation of Indigenous women among homicide victims was even higher.

Yasssss and also while knowing what I know now bc my dumbness would be sooooo much smarter. ๐คช๐๐คช
It's not good logic but it's my logic. ๐ค
And hello gorgeous Friday. Here's to what is going to be an amazing day as we are about to kick off the first weekend in October. All three stores are open today from 10 to 6 so swing on by and say hi.
Shanah tovah to all of those celebrating Rosh Hashanah. ๐
Fabulously delicious and flavourful and 100% made in Toronto HOT sauces and HOT honey courtesy of ๐ฅ๐ถ๏ธ๐๐ฎ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๏ธ๐ฅ ...
If you haven't tried their Hot Honey drizzle on your pizza or the Pineapple Habanero on everything else, run don't walk to add it to your condiment shelf!!
It's the 'little by little' that I think we need to be reminded of, giving ourselves grace and honouring our own pace for growth and forward moving. โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
He's agreed to do this as long as I do all the writing ... considering my penmanship is, for all intents and purposes, illegible, I don't think this is the best approach to take if we want to capture a year of emptynest memories. So the plan will be I will read the questions and he will take the notes since we wanna be able to look back on this in 50 years. ๐ฉท๐ฉท๐ฉท
All kidding aside, I absolutely love this prompted journal that just requires us to take a few minutes a day to jot a few things down, based on a random question that ultimately will keep us connected and connecting. ๐ฉท๐ฉท๐ฉท
For the record, I teeter over a lot less since incorporating more Pilates and yoga into my days. Just sayin'. ๐คช
It'll all depend on if I keep buying the boxes of full size chocolate bars ๐ค๐๐๐ป๐๐๐ค
And haaalllllooooo, Thursday!! It's promising all sunshine and smiles so let's get going! We are open today 10-6 at all three locations and we can't wait to see you all! ๐๐ป๐

Happiest of days to everyone hitting this incredible milestone this year!! This post today is specifically for my amazing Uncle Leonard who is turning 100 and to celebrate that, he went and got his drivers license renewed last month AND bought a new car!!
There's a huge party happening for him this weekend back home and while I can't be there in person, I know he'll be surrounded by the cajillion family members and friends that love him dearly. So happy birthday, Uncle Leonard and thank you for being one of the kindest humans ever ... clearly after 100 years, you just keep getting better at it!!
(Photo is from 2019 and he looks exactly the same)
And embrace all the lunar, moony magic you've collected thru the years!! ๐๐๐
Be the person you want to be. And enjoy your silly, little, amazing, delightful, full and fantastical life. ๐
And hello, October. ๐ It's going to be a great month!!
All three stores are open today 10-6 so swing on by so we can talk pumpkin spice and Halloween costume ideas.
Today, we wear orange to stand in solidarity with the survivors of residential schools and to acknowledge their stories. ๐งก
I am listening more, reading more, and aiming for greater understanding of our country's past and current role in the lives of Indigenous peoples. I have a lot of learning and listening to do. ๐งก
Thanks so much, September ... for your sunshine and blue skies and green leaves and grass ... and for all the changes and adventures and ups and downs and calm and boring and clenched and stressful moments ... and for the hugs and high fives and giggles and tears and big breaths in and out ... and for the glimmers to remind us that there's magic happening everywhere everyday via random smiles and hellos and connections. ๐ค๐ค๐ค
And hello Monday, filled with blue skies and leaves starting to turn ... our Kingston Road and Bloor West stores are open today 10-6 so swing on by to say hi. ๐ค๐ค๐ค
Pants: optional. This feels like a t-shirt design that needs to happen.
And hello gorgeous Sunday in the city. It's also the last Sunday of September, which is bananas to me. I hope you are all enjoying it and taking full advantage of the blue skies and beautiful paste that is September. All three stores are open today until five so swing on by and say hi. We can't wait to see you. ๐ฉท
It was in this moment when I fell in love with Maggie Smith. RIP ๐ฉท
For the record, I am here to declare there is no such thing as a Margarita season because Margaritas are year round and timeless which means yes, they are in fact a perfect fall cocktail (and winter too!!)... and this is my way of letting you all know we are stocked back up with the classic mix!!
ah!! I love seeing one of the puzzles I've gushed over and that we carry, in the wild, fully formed, being admired until it gets put away. I also love that this Agatha Christie beauty is at a university house of first years which means there are moments of meditative calm happening amongst all the new chaos and confusion and "I have no idea what I'm doingness".
