Mishy's other room mate
This little lizard is a friend’s roommate’s pet. He was sun tanning under the lamp in his enclosure and I couldn’t resist taking a whole bunch of pictures of him.
Brushing your teeth in designer style
Toothbrush designs
I could not help but wonder what goes into the art and science of designing a toothbrush as I stroked the bristles across my enamel this morning.
What was essentially a bunch of bristles at the end of the stick, now became a high tech tooth cleaning device with no less than four different parts. Four that is, if you are not counting the flexible shaft and the raised dots at the rear of the toothbrush.
Beefing up at Master Steaks
Masters Steaks $9.99 12-oz New York
While it’s not quite Canyon Creek, Master Steaks at Dixie and 401 in Mississauga is the quick fix for the read meat lover.
Port Credit Photo Shooting
Kristen Au at Port Credit
I love Port Credit for many reason. The waterfront, the liveliness and also for the great number of locations to take pictures.
The lighthouse, boardwalk, benches, gazebo, and now even graffiti, all make for great shooting locations.
Peering into my stomach
Nong Shim Honey Twists
If you peered into my stomach, this would be the sight you’d currently see! Nong Shim Honey Twists! I got them for $0.66 a pack at Walmart last night. I ate about 1/2 the package before taking a picture.
Open Mic @ Marcello’s
Open Mic at Marcellos
Last week, I spoke of community building by having more live music venues in Mississauga. This week, while being Kristen’s groupie, I found the open mic night at Marcello’s.
There was quite a large community, with over 6 bands playing that night. There was great energy in the crowd and even the 2009 Mississauga Future Stars winner Dale Luarca was on hand to play a set.
I’m always told that there are no venues to play in Mississauga. Yet, there are venues that are willing to open their doors to local talent. I hope this effort will help bands find places to play all over the city. If you know of any live venues, let me know!
Niagara Icewine Festival
Icewine in chocolate shot "glasses" at Konzelmann Estate winery.
It was the sweetest getaway of the month as 20 of Zeekid’s friends converged upon the Niagara region to celebrate some of the finest icewines Ontario had to offer.

Checking out the Niagara Icewine Festival this weekend with Zeekid and company. It should be a fun trip! Looking forward to great tasting food, drinking and cottage fun.
Live Jazz @ Coffee Culture in Mississauga
White chocolate mocha at Coffee Culture
Live music, coffee, old friends, new friends, that’s the good life. Kristen Au’s jazz performances at Coffee Culture, at Creditview and Eglington in Mississauga, allow for this community building to happen.
