No Heart Feelings.

I seem to be obsessed with movies that showcase Toronto and then find some way of ensuring that their name makes an appearance on this blog (Chloe, Toronto Stories). Makes sense, given that I love film and happen to love Toronto (Toronto blog and all...).  

Go and see the film No Heart Feelings at Royal Cinema for a bit of modern romance, Toronto streetscapes and wit. (Go if not for the Royal Cinema itself.) You'll get late twenties Toronto meanderings, handy camera work, cringe-worthy awkward moments that wrote themselves into the script due to actors' skilled improv. It's both charming and annoying only because of its realism, and a great job for low-budget ($7500) indie film. Playing for a week longer than originally scheduled!

Cake. Cake? Cake!

Oh gosh, sorry for the whole month of silence! We're still here!

I just got a job working at a cupcake bakery in Oakville with 5am shifts 5 days a week! It's pretty tiring work. Heavy lifting, repetitive movements, hot ovens...but all in the name of adorable sparkly cake, so I guess it's for a good cause.

Pros: I get to eat a lot of cupcakes. I'm learning a lot about commercial baking. I get paid to do something I like to do.
Cons: I eat too many cupcakes. I have to go to bed by 9pm. I work weekends!

So as a result I haven't been able to get into the city as much as I'd like. What have you all been doing? Did anyone check out Buskerfest? Tried some deep fried butter at the CNE? Picnic in Trinity Bellwoods Park? (wait, I did do that. For S's birthday! It was lovely!! Happy birthday S!)

For the time being, I've turned my kitchen into a cake lab, and I take orders, so please let me know if you'd like a cake for an event. I make custom cakes in whatever flavour and style you want. That includes animals!
