Canadians have their say in the world of coffee

It should come as no surprise that I am writing about my love for Starbucks Canada – at this point, I should honestly be looking into buying shares in the company based on the amount I drink daily. There is something to be said for a brand that knows me, my drink preferences, and is always looking to innovate the coffee world in Canada. 2017 has started off in an exciting way via the launch of #BlondeEspresso and we were lucky enough to get a one-on-one experience with the delicious new addition to your local Starbucks.  Continue reading “Canadians have their say in the world of coffee”

Where have the polar bears gone

Being that I call Toronto home, I found myself talking about how mild this winter has been and how great that has been. But the fact remains that this isn’t necessarily a good thing in the large scheme of things either. The world is changing, and therein, getting warmer. And as lovely as it may be for those of us Canadians who have bore the brunt of -45 degrees celsius, habitats around the world and the animals that call them home are having to adapt or disappear altogether.

Walking in a Winterlude Wonderland with CIBC

A lot of people don’t realize that although I have made Toronto my home with Julio, and HQ for all things #DoTheDaniel, I have in fact lived in several major Canadian cities in my lifetime. We moved a lot when I was younger because we followed the opportunities that my parents had in their careers. Though it wasn’t always easy, I like to think that it also gave me my sense of adventure while seeing what it meant to grow up Canadian in both Ontario & Québec. While I lived in Ottawa with my parents, I used to look forward to Winterlude every year. From skating on the Rideau Canal, ice sculpture carvings that awe & amaze, to the ample amounts of Beavertails that I used to justify as winter sustenance… it was an exciting time in Ottawa for residents and visitors alike. On Saturday, February 18 (From 8 a.m. to 9 a.m.) you’re going to want to head to the Rideau Canal Skateway for CIBC’s Shinny Hockey Day!
