I procrastinated in writing this post. The dreaded birthday post.
If you read my blog last year, you may recall a certain “wrecking ball post” which I’ve since password protected. I took time to re-read it and MAN was I ever a grumpster in the dumpster!
I’ll spare you the details but here’s an excerpt:
“Yesterday, I woke up in tears. Not to be melodramatic but it was the first time in my life that I was hit with the ‘what have I done with my life?’ wrecking ball. It hit hard.”
Nope, not this year. I have nothing but thanksgiving this year, not because I necessarily gained more but that I’m learning how to live lighter and happier. I’ve cut unnecessary things out of my life and am putting more energy into things that truly matter and have eternal value.

Yup, another year full of learning flew by.
What I’m putting into practice:
- Give myself a break
- Give others a break
- Allocate my time better to spend with people I care about in a meaningful way
- Doing the right thing is always harder but it is worth it
- Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.
Things I’ve done:
- Vancouver Food Tour had an amazing summer and fall season and I’m looking forward to a busy spring.
- I travelled a bit and will be doing so a tad more in January.
- I’m still writing and shooting videos and photos, stuffing my face with obscene things and cocktail ninja-ing.
Watch it all happen live through Facebook or Twitter. I ADORE chatting with my readers so please give me a poke there ♥ I have a few sneaky projects up my sleeves and a HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT to make soon so be on the lookout!
To top things off, I’ve captured peeks of my birthday and some food-related gifts with my iPhone. Slinging a DSLR around would not’ve been very glam. Many hugs to everyone that made my birthday so special and disaster free!














C’est tout! Thanks for reading my ennui xoxo
p.s. This year, I also met a cowboy that makes my heart skip a beat ♥
