One of my walking buddies is married, nearing 30, and suffering from an acute case of Baby Rabies.
“Look,” she’d say at every passing stroller on our last...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basMetro Toronto and ChickAdvisor recently asked you who you'd pair as the next "It" couple. These results are sure to make for a very Happy Friday indeed. It looked like a one-horse race at first, but last minute voting shook things up.
1st place (tied) - Tilda Swinton & Michael "The Situation" Sorrentino
Insane? Perhaps. But as one reader commented: "They balance each...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basSo, all this week we've been daydreaming about trotting the red carpet with a hunky TIFF celeb or even getting stuck in an elevator with one.... but then we get all sour grapey and decide we wouldn't want to deal with paparazzi or have our smartphones hacked after all, so we're better off finding Prince Charming among the masses.
That doesn't mean, of course, that we wouldn't...

If the movie Notting Hill taught us anything, it's that all we regular folk need to sweet-talk our way into the arms of a famous bit o' eye candy is a jar of honeyed apricots and a winning pick-up line. (Probably a stiff drink and smelling salts too, but let's be optimistic.)
So, just hypothetically speaking: If...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI love surprises.
I’m not talking about the Lexus-with-a-bow-on-it-in-the-driveway kind of surprise (although as a deluded teenager I kind of thought I might get one on my 16th birthday even though I didn’t even have a driver’s license yet): I’m talking about the little surprises in life.
Surprises like finding a dollar in your winter coat pocket when you finally bring it out of storage, or...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basOn Monday evenings, I play in a recreational adult kickball league. For some reason, our team is in a competitive bracket. Yes, a competitive bracket of adults who play kickball.
This means that on a weekly basis, we get our asses kicked by groups of (mainly) guys who were probably picked last in gym class growing up. Whatever they wanted to prove in 5th grade, they’re proving after work on the...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basAbove: Nora at her graduationI was in middle school when Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino made me long for my 10-year high school reunion. I had yet to learn the humiliation that comes in the form of the school’s toothless janitor removing your padlock from your locker with the jaws of life and scolding you for forgetting your combination before you even got halfway through your first day of ninth...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basIt was last New Year’s Eve. I was reflecting over the events that had made 2010 the memorable year that it was. I resolved to make 2011 just as fresh and opportune. My first step? Move out of my parent’s place, where I had set up camp almost two years earlier having graduated from university.
I first needed to find a roommate. So, I did what any 21st Century city gal in...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basSometimes, a truly horrible dating story arises. One for the record books. One that is blogged and tweeted and Facebooked and shared over drinks and water cooler trips and exchanges with total strangers who all agree that the man in question is the pits. Yeah that's right, I said "the pits."
Guys like this were the topic of much conversation during my brother's wedding reception. What?!...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI’m getting a new sister on Saturday. Not because my parents finally gave into years of begging (while I’m no doctor, I think the baby train left the station a few years ago) but because my older brother decided he was ready to give his long-time girlfriend a new last name.
I’m lucky to have a life filled with great relationship role-models, from my kooky-but-adorably-Odd-Couple parents to...
