What I have been listening to...
PHOEBE READS A MYSTERY
If you have ever listened to the podcast, Criminal you know that the host Phoebe has the perfect voice for audiobooks. During this time of self-isolation on top of her other podcasts, she started reading some of her favourite books. The chapters are quick and it has been perfect while I am out for a walk or in the studio sewing.
What I have reading...
THE BASKETBALL DIARIES
If you are looking for a perfect grammatical read, this might not be for you. It really is a diary, showing Jim’s unedited thoughts and feelings. He documents growing up with little supervision in New York. He is honest about his struggle with drugs, coming to terms with his sexuality and hustling to make enough to support his habit.
What I have watching...
FARGO
The beau and I have been waiting for time to watch this, and now we have lots! Season 1 & 2 are amazing, while season 3 is more of slow burn. If you are a fan of the Coen Brothers movie this is a must watch for you. It is well written and has links throughout all the seasons so you really have to pay attention while watching.
What I have been doing...
LOTS OF WALKING
The thing I miss most about Toronto is walking those busy streets, listening to my music and working through my thoughts and ideas. Well the streets might not be busy, but I have been getting back into walking and letting it clear my mind. Some of my best ideas come on a good walk and we all need that inspiration now!

FEMME STORIES
I am so proud of this Blog Series. I had the idea to do this last year, but finding the time was the problem. When we started isolating and I saw all these amazing business women pivoting to keep their companies going I was inspired to document their journey. The first one came out last week, with a new story launching each Friday.
