If ever there was a music store amusement park, this might be it!

The store's (and I use ther word "store" loosely - this place was a small community) layout is broken down into their own, glass-doored, sound-proof rooms, each section with their own…More »

This is the review from a tattoo n00b! I shall refrain from such terms as "ink" or "tatts". This is something I've learned.

So, I'm someone who was thinking of getting a tattoo for perhaps two years - one and a half on deciding what to get and six…More »

How is it possible to give a place whose business is ripping hair out of various parts of your body a 5-star rating? If anything, I think there should be an automatic deduction for said hair rippage.

But here we are... 5 stars, a good as it gets.

You…More »

Fact: This place sells beads. Beads. Beads. Beads. Don't go in there thinking "Oh, I hope they sell feathers 'cause"... oh wait, they have some of that too. Silly me!

I think Ariel from Disney's The LIttle Mermaid once sang:

You want thingamabobs? I've got twenty.
But who cares. No big deal. I want more....

Recently updated lists from Michelle V.

Woodbine and Danforth - Yup, it's worth visiting... (8) It might not be a neighbourhood that's bursting with trendy retail flavour but it still has a lot to offer.	The Great Dessert Seduction (9) Places to get your sweet on. [Warning: one place mentioned on this list is located in Thunder Bay, ON]
Cup O'Cake (5) The idea of this list is to [hopefully] expand it as I discover more list-worthy cupcakes since I don't normally go out and buy them. But I need to provide a brief explanation for Sweet Tooth. It's the Chocolate Raspberry cupcake alone that earned its spot. So moist and delicious and imagine if I went when they were fresh!	If You Took Me To These Places, I Might Make Out With You (9) The title says it all...
Why I Miss Living Closer to the Beach Area (4) Once upon a time, I lived in an area that straddled Leslieville and the Beach, perhaps leaning more toward the Beach. And though I don't live THAT far from these places, here is a list of places my Sunday bike rides or strolls miss...	Why I Should Be Living in Leslieville (4) Whether it's food, clothing or more food, these are the places I must hit up when I'm in the area.
