…spending Saturday afternoon with your favourite person exploring a trendy Toronto neighbourhood.
Ok, I’m not an artist but I’ve always wished I could draw. So, I figured, I’d bring out the closet wannabe artist in me and start a series of my own doodle art through a corresponding series of “Happiness is…” posts (h/t to Charles Schulz for the original “Happiness Is” series). I think some daily self-reflection on the positive things about life is always a good thing. I’ll consider this a stress reliever and an opportunity to explore my creative side. Before you say it, no, I won’t be giving up my day job. 🙂
As it was a lovely Saturday, we took the car for a toddle through the city and found ourselves in the Roncesvalles neighbourhood. After enjoying a scrumptious lunch at Pizzeria Defina (the Pizza Expo was as delicious as our waiter professed it to be – a must try), we walked the streets and wandered into the various home deco stores there. I now want to redecorate!
I’d love to hear your ‘happiness is’ moments and/or what you do to beat the daily stresses in life.
Have a wonderful Sunday and a lovely Mother’s Day all!
