Abduction, and Murder, and Bribery… Oh My!

Picture this.

I’m sitting across the table from a wonderful woman telling her about what we do at DoTheDaniel.com. She asks how much certain things cost, and with a wink, she slides an envelope across the table to me saying that if I happened to sit down to write a blog post without a contract or anything “official”, we could just say whatever was in the envelope would be mine.

Urban Gardening 101

The month of June has arrived, and with it the beautiful sunny weather. For many Canadians, we are all sighing with relief after a neverending winter. Though we sort of jumped over the spring, it is a time of rejuvenation and blooming – pun intended. As someone who is always running around, I like to try and find simple things that make me happy.

Not only because it falls in line with the ideals that I feel define Canada so well, but also because the importance of sharing positivity is more important than ever for me. There is nothing in the world more powerful than love, and we all could use a little more of it in our lives.  Continue reading “I Love You. Je T’aime. Te Amo. Ich Liebe Dich. …”

When I stop to think about some of the events we attend around the world, I am always reminded that it’s the ones where we can really relax, immerse ourselves and enjoy them with those we love and call our friends. The month of May is a busy one for us around the world but I am excited that the #DoTheDaniel team wouldn’t miss the chance to attend this year’s Greenwood Stakes at Woodbine Race Track. From Fashion to Food, Prizes and Plenty of Instagrammable moments, this year is going to be absolutely amazing and we wanted to share some of our most anticipated reasons why.  Continue reading “Who Are You Wearing?”
