Life Is...

I read this off the wall of the BRAVE belt company here in Toronto.

LIFE IS A CHALLENGE _________________ MEET IT

LIFE IS A GIFT ______________________ ACCEPT IT

LIFE IS AN ADVENTURE ________________ DARE IT

LIFE IS A SORROW _______________OVERCOME IT

LIFE IS A TRAGEDY ____________________ FACE IT

LIFE IS A DUTY ____________________PERFORM IT

LIFE IS A GAME _______________________ PLAY IT

LIFE IS A MYSTERY _________________ UNFOLD IT

LIFE IS A SONG ________________________ SING IT

LIFE IS AN OPPORTUNITY _______________ TAKE IT

LIFE IS A JOURNEY ________________COMPLETE IT

LIFE IS A PROMISE ___________________ FULFIL IT

LIFE IS A LOVE _______________________ ENJOY IT

LIFE IS A BEAUTY ____________________ PRAISE IT

LIFE IS A SPIRIT _____________________ REALIZE IT

LIFE IS A STRUGGLE ___________________ FIGHT IT

LIFE IS A PUZZLE _____________________ SOLVE IT

LIFE IS A GOAL _____________________ ACHIEVE IT

Amazing... no big deal... haha

Mother's Day



It's mother's day today...
Which calls for the traditional breakfast in bed for my mom, and I am always reminded of Klimt's Mother and Child...

A Trip to Little India

On my trip to Little India in Toronto...



I stuffed myself with Indian food at the new Haandi 2000 - the food is very reasonably priced, and they have amazing naan and butter chicken! Say... $10 for a lunch buffet? yum.



Later...
I paid a visit to RANG - a beautiful Indian home decor store


And tried out something new...
It tastes like fresh mint with sweet molasses...
Not a huge fan... but at least I was adventurous...

Food shown above: gual ab jamun (Indian sweets), butter chicken, daal (chick peas), pappad (crispy bread), paan (betel leaf with areca nut and slaked lime paste)

Wrap me in Space


If you like doing DIY projects, and you dislike having the same accessories as someone else, why not tie dye your own scarf?
Tie dying has a stigma of being tacky or hippie- but if made with the right colors it can look elegant.

The scarf above was made by my mother and myself.

A How-To post will be uploaded this summer.
