Why I Finally Stopped Wearing Flip Flops

Breaking my ankle forced me to change which shoes I wear at home. I tried cute, furry slippers as a kid, but always abandoned them. In the last 10 years or so, I’ve worn Old Navy flip flops around the apartment nonstop. I’ve alternated different pairs and love my royal blue ones.

Yes, I’m aware that flip flops are bad for you. I’ve seen them ridiculed in many articles, but I ignored the comments and slipped them on at home daily. The only time I regretted wearing them was when I visited Madame Tussauds in Las Vegas.

Building An Archive For 10+ Years

I’ve been on a mission to build a powerful archive of my own pictures. I don’t always know what I’m taking or saving them for, but I’ve always had a feeling they would be helpful someday. That I would have the right picture for the right moment.

When the COVID-19 pandemic happened and we were all told to stay home, I didn’t want to be insensitive to my audience. It didn’t seem like the right time to do photo shoots for Instagram. So, I started posting throwbacks. Not baby photos, but throwbacks within the last 5-10 years from my camera. It seemed like the perfect time to take advantage of my archive.

The picture of Jessica Mulroney and I that I posted on the day of her series premiere? Taken 2 years ago. I posted 3 more latergrams before I posted a new frozen snack I discovered. I heated up SuperPretzels in the toaster oven and put them under good lighting on a red paper plate. Ta da, new post!

Reuniting With Ron White

Ron White Shoes celebrated its 25^th anniversary this month and I visited their store in the Manulife Centre to see the founder. After Ron finished autographing a customer’s pair of sneakers, I had a chance to tell him a funny story about how we first met and I want to share it here too.

What To Expect From The Disney On Broadway Tour

Whenever I’m in New York, I always go to the Disney Store in Times Square, so it’s unsurprising that I booked tickets to the Disney on Broadway tour. The tour has been on my radar for a few years and the timing finally worked out on my last trip.

We stayed in the Theater District, so the meeting place for the tour was steps away from our hotel. It was nice to go on the tour with my mom because we saw The Lion King musical together.

The tour is split in 2 parts: walking around Times Square and then visiting Disney’s New Amsterdam Theatre. I wish we spent more time at the theatre and less time on the street. We heard general information about how Times Square has evolved, whereas I was more interested in Disney. I enjoyed hearing about how Walt Disney approached Julie Andrews to star in Mary Poppins after seeing her in Camelot at the Majestic Theatre, but I could find most facts online.
