My Day of Opulence

Although my morning started off in a medical examination / circus freak way - it soon turned into a glamourous fun filled afternoon with friends.
I was invited to join some wonderful ladies (@SassyGirlCanada, @AyznGurl, @KimberlyHughes, @Zokai and @LisaMcPhee) for High Tea at The Windsor Arms.

I arrived a touch late and was escorted into what can only be described as the Red Room (actually named the Russian Tea Room). The walls were painted a rich red and accented with gold. It felt as if I took a huge step back in time. Although beautiful, it lacked ventilation and I felt as if I was thrusted into menopause! I think I may have preferred to have enjoyed my tea and company in the modern and better ventilated tea room.

Our server left something to be desired but, the scones, tiny rolled sandwiches, preserves, petits fours and tea came in above expectation! We were stuffed silly! The scones were fluffy, the tea had the loveliest hint of chocolate and the sweets, well - I needed a cigarette after cramming them ever so lady-like (not) down my throat.

We laughed, we talked about boys, we scowled at our server and had a wonderful time. When it was time to part ways, I thought it might be fun to stop into my most favourite place... Tiffany & Co.

I felt like a movie star today! It was wonderful! Thank you Sandy, Lisa, Kimberly, Natasha, and Shoreh for a wonderful and glamourous day! Xoxoxoxoxo

Ps. Do you think I walked out of Tiffany & Co. empty handed? HELZ NO! Happy Crashaversary to me.

Brunch Babes

Roughly a month ago (I know this took way too long to post), a few friends and I had brunch at fabulous new French resto - La Societe (Bloor St. East of Avenue Rd.). I have no idea where to start!

The decor is incredible! Dark wood, stained glass domes, marble tables and a 2 lovely patios. (I think the patio on the street level is for those who want to be seen.)

The girls and I started with mimosas (now our staple drink for brunch) and some great conversation. Our server had perfect timing and a wonderful knowledge of the menu.

I had noticed that on their brunch menu (all menus are available on their website) was this awesome sounding French toast with sautéed bananas. I knew I HAD to order it. I haven't had French toast with bananas since I was in Atlantic city, and I just had this feeling La Societe wouldn't let me down.

The meal was great, the company was awesome and the service was incredible! This was one of the best restaurants I've had the pleasure of having brunch at. I highly recommend it.

I should take Bobby... Nah! It just going to be our little secret.
