Just received this amazing (PRODUCT) @red @quip toothbrush from work! I remember my first (PRODUCT)RED item. It was a second-gen iPod shuffle back in late 2007. I have since loved and supported this organization because of the amazing cause that it stands behind. The Global Fund has, in so many ways, helped to combat, treat, and research HIV/AIDS, especially in impoverished areas in Africa. I consider this to be one of the most impactful use of marketing and activism. Vive le rouge! ♥️♥️♥️
Poaching is my favourite way of cooking eggs. Instead of making some hollandaise sauce though, I decided to make a Turkish-inspired one (from a dish called çılbır). So I whipped up some greek yogurt, honey, mustard, butter, paprika, pepper, and Himalayan pink salt. Et voila, brunch is served. 🥚🍞🍅🥒
So it appears that I'm the new Emily in the firm. Emily was the one who was responsible for taking clients out to museums, restaurants, and other cultural locations in the city. So for my first task as Emily, I took the clients to see the member-exclusive preview of the upcoming It's Alive! Classic Horror and Sci-Fi Art from the Kirk Hammett Collection at the ROM. I don't particularly like horror films, but one can't help but admire the cultural impact that these pictures had. Early classics like Dracula, Frankenstein, and The Mummy that came out during the Great Depression in early 1930s paved the way for more modern classics like Alien and Predator. You'll also notice that Boris Karloff was the biggest horror actor during the period. I always think of horror films as allegories for the oppressive and frightening events that transpire in the real world so it’s important to recognize their significance. 👻 #ROMItsAlive
20 years ago, 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban' hit the shelves. So, in honour of this, I decided to reread the book and rewatch the movie yesterday. The thing about growing up with this series is that no matter how old you get, it never ceases to amaze. Mischief Managed. ⚡️ #HarryPotter
Fort Henry sits on top of a hill and offers gorgeous views of the Cataraqui River, St. Lawrence River, Cedar Island, Downtown Kingston, and Lake Ontario.

Fair + beach = genius! 🎡🏖
This gothic style limestone cathedral is one of Kingston’s skyline’s focal point. The 242-feet spire is believed to be the tallest structure in Kingston.
Just a friendly and polite reminder that not all Canadians put maple syrup on everything, play hockey, or speak en français. Canadians, though, are very welcoming, love poutine, and can endure the cold (seemingly endless) winter months. Happy Canada Day! Joyeuse Fête du Canada! 🇨🇦 #CanadaDay
