August 19, 2012Sweetland, ON Gentle readers, Now that I’m back in the blogosphere at last, you shall not be able to get rid of me. Today, I’m taking a load off at the Sweetland family ranch, after an epic excavation down in the basement. An incredibly successful excavation it was, enough to make Indiana Jones and Sydney Fox proud! Up… see more…
August 11, 2012Farm Heaven, ON It’s one of those rainy afternoons in the old farm house. The kind where you’re stuck inside with the cat and start looking for a hidden room to explore… I’ve crawled inside the old wardrobe in my bedroom, in hopes it may open up to another world. Somewhere beyond these boots and bunny fur coats… see more…
August 3, 2012Toronto, ON Hello My Darlings! I’m back from the dead and out from the hole in which I’ve been hiding… And in fine form, obviously! It was a deep, dark, delicious hole, thoroughly replete with summer sun, glistening jewels, new shoes, fancy oysters, fluffed pillows, rose gardens, old movies, nylon strings, magnificent feasts, puppy kisses, and lots and lots of flamenco… see more…
April 6, 2012Toronto, ON I’m home at last after my epic tour down to Texas, and subsequent artistic hibernation in the land I call “Farm Heaven”… I have so many stories to tell, I’m not even sure where to begin.

February 14, 2012Toronto, ON Mes Cheries, Happy Valentines Day! I’m back in bed, watching the X-files and drinking coffee with my Valentine. Who has dog breath.

January 19, 2012 Dalkeith, ON Well it sure is winter here in Farm Heaven. The winter we, in the big city, thought might never come… I found it. It was at the end of a long road, down a dirt road, all along. And I was pleased to find it quite happy to see me. With that particular brand of bitter… see more…
January 3, 2012Toronto, ON Happy New Year, People! It’s a good one already. I was planning on staying home New Year’s Eve with my faux fire, fuzzy slippers and guitar… Would have sipped some superb sparkling rosé and penned an inspirational blog post with words like “resolution” and “apocalypse” and “unapologetically glamorous.” However, in the end I decided to venture… see more…
December 18, 2011Toronto, ON Dear Santa, I know I usually write sooner, but for some reason I’m just not in the Christmas spirit yet. And not in a bad way. I’m surely no Sweetlandish Scrooge.
