Where's Has the Time Gone?

Hello Readers,

I hope you are all happy and well. The months just flew by since my last entry! I am starting to think I am on "sabbatical", haha. 

To be honest, I haven't felt  inspired to blog or to review products over the past couples of months. Hopefully, I will be bitten by a magical writing bug and I will be cranking out weekly entries. In the mean time I will quickly share with y'all what I have been doing with my free time. During the the past few months I:

• Explored the nooks and crannies of Banff and gazed at stars  

• Soaked in Banff's relaxing outdoor Upper Hot Springs

• Wandered around the Delta Lodge and surrounding area in Kananaskis

• Checked out the Calgary Pride Parade 

• Attended Alberta Ballet's Great Masterpieces of the 20th Century 

• Watched Othello through Alberta Ballet

• Went to my first opera (!) - Otello through Calgary Opera 

• Visited the Glenbow Museum and saw the though-provoking exhibition Fairy Tales, Monsters and the Genetic Imagination

• Helped execute the perfect surprise birthday party 

• Had my Twitter account hacked into :(

 Delish tea

• Been showered with gifts from Las Vegas

Take care and stay warm! Wish me luck in finding the magical writing bug. ;) 

Lots of love,

Hello Readers,

I hope you are all well. I apologize for quietly disappearing, and not posting since November 2011! I will make a posting in a few days titled "24 Things I Learnt as a 24 Year Old."

• Went on the Alberta Ballet's 24th Annual  House & Garden Tour 

• Explored the Royal Tyrrell Museum

• Was the Maid of Honor for my best friend's wedding

• Went canoeing (in a dress!)

• Went on a hike near O'Shaughnessy Falls

• Gazed at stars in Kananaskis
