christmas, christmas time is near

christmas is my favorite time of the year. reason being 1. good food and 2. christmas shopping.

good food: this year our firm had christmas lunchon at Le Select located on queen street west. i'm never disappointed when dining at this small french restaurant. food is always good and staffs are always friendly. on our luncheon i had a fish&veggie soup. it was delicious!! the fish (salmon) was so soft and tender and the seafood-tasting mousse was cooked to perfection. i'm never a fan of western-style soup but this one is a must-try! the main dish i had was a duck confit. the duck skin was crispy while the meat inside was still juicy. it tasted perfect with its cranberry/orange sauce.

christmas shopping: did tons of shopping for christmas this year and just noticed a great new designer for handbags - matt&nat. these guys are from montreal and their handbags are stylish and trendy and most importantly not expensive. my new baby from matt&nat is a pink leather purse. besides handbags they also make wallets. visit the following website to see their collection. http://www.viavegan.com/english.htm

it's over!! and here i come again!!

wow. its been over 3 months since i last updated my blog. i actually got a fan (the one and only - winnie) asking me when i will be updating my blog. here u go~~

my dear fan(s), i have a valid reason for not updating my blog for such a long time - my final cga exam. i am so glad that it's finally over, which means i can relax for a long while (assuming that i passed) before having to face another exam. and hopefully, that will be for a mba degree!

aside from my never-ending student status, i am still actively a member of the crazy shopping society. since chrismas is approaching, i have again a valid reason to shop shop & shop (even though i never needed one). i am so happy that i recently received a credit card like invitation to win a $500 or $1,000 gift certificate from aritzia - one of my favorite stores in toronto. in fact, that also reminds me of how much money i spent at that place. but shopping is always the right of every young girl. i never felt guilty. kekeke.
