Wood Meets Plastic

I know that as someone who appreciates product design and supports hand made items and their makers I am probably supposed to consider IKEA the enemy but it is definitely a guilty pleasure for me. You have to admit that they do come out with some gems. I love this red plastic chair inspired by a familiar wooden chair design.

Buddha Bowls

There is a restaurant in Toronto called Fresh. They have a dish called Buddha bowls and this is my interpretation of it. It's brown rice, spicy peanut sauce, lettuce, tomato, avocado, red peppers, shrimp and cilantro.

Living on the Coast


The beautiful view from my bus stop this morning. I'm from the Canadian prairies and I've never lived near the ocean before. I love the way the tide comes in and out. It feels like the whole landscape is slowly breathing.
