I teach baking and host live bake-alongs on YouTube and TikTok—and when I remember, I even record a few.

These are the restaurants I've been to many times over the years and they all have amazing food, great ambiance, and good service (which I sadly feel like is getting harder and harder to find in Toronto).
Some people meal prep. I… assemble random items in my pantry and fridge to consume. Whether it’s ‘girl dinner,’ a midnight snack, or a fridge-cleanout charcuterie moment, these are the staples I keep stocked. They’re versatile, snackable, and sometimes questionable — but they always come through when I can’t be bothered to cook (which I already don't enjoy doing lol) 🥖🧀🍫

I believe small-batch makers are the heartbeat of a healthier food system. My focus is on supporting locally sourced, sustainable brands that put people, communities, and real ingredients first. By championing independent vendors, we help keep dollars in local economies, reduce wasteful supply chains, and fuel the creativity that big manufacturing can’t replicate. Every product featured comes from a business that cares about quality, craft, and community impact - not mass production. This holiday season, choosing small isn’t just a purchase - it’s a vote for better food, fairer practices, and a future where local makers can thrive. When we shop small, we’re not just giving gifts. We’re giving support, opportunity, and momentum to the entrepreneurs building something meaningful.
