Confessions of a Macaron Addict: Boutique Point G

Amanda Di Pancrazio May 15, 2015

Before I begin, let's be clear that I'm talking about macarons. They're those adorable - often colourful - treats seen in the photo above, not to be mistaken with the coconutty nasty "treat" known as the macaroon. Cause who the hell would write about macaroons?

How Pets Became Essential to My Life (part 1)

Amanda Di Pancrazio May 7, 2015

In 2010, my brother called me and said that there was a litter of kittens that had been hanging out under my grandmother's balcony for a few days. Oh, cool. Let me go check out this pile of cuteness. I headed on over and there, under the balcony was one tiny kitten - smaller than my foot - and it just blankly stared at me with these big blue eyes.

My Brand-Spanking New Custom Kitty Pillow + a Velvet Moustache Sale!

Amanda Di Pancrazio April 28, 2015

Have you heard of Velvet Moustache? You may remember them from my post about my favourite Montreal Etsy sellers or my YouTube video where I show off their pillows; they make super adorable, high-quality pillows as well as other goodies for the home. It goes without saying that I'm a big fan. I mean... they make animal pillows that make my home look like... well... my home.

El rey del taco - chips and salsas - authentic mexican cuisine - mexican food - mexican restaurant montreal - my girl montreal

The King Lives - and he makes the best tacos in town

Amanda Di Pancrazio April 26, 2015

It's no secret - I love Mexican food. And I absolutely loathe what most people believe is Mexican food. Let's get real here: 3 Amigos is not Mexican food: it's tex mex. If we all got a taste of the real deal, we'd all be hooked and we'd all be a bunch of jumbo-sized oompa loompas. Totally worth it.
