My Toronto - Humber Bay Shores Park

Humber Bay Shores offers amazing views of the Toronto skyline ... 

While there are amazing views, plenty of park benches to sit on ... there are also plenty of grassed areas and rocks. There is a walking path, bicycle path and many little dirt paths through the wildflower gardens. You can enjoy Humber Bay Shores - all year long ... cross country ski, fish, cycle, snowball fights, or just get walk in nature.

The Butterfly Habitat is one of my favourite areas - because it's more than just butterflies - you will find various grasses, wildflowers, and lots of home garden plants. It's a great area to sit and just be in the moment, read a book, enjoy a box lunch, savour a cup of coffee/tea/hot chocolate/smoothie or watch the various birds and wildlife that pass through.

 There are lots of walking paths ... and things to discover tucked in nooks and crannies. On your visit see if you can find some of these:

Red bird feeder ....

Butterfly wall ... makes a great back drop for photos ...

The wanderlust rock ... and some of  other fabulous inspirational word engraved rocks...

What discoveries have you made at Humber Bay Shores Park?

Do you have a similar waterfront park where you live?

Let's Eat Toronto: Cluny Bistro & Boulangerie

Photo taken during my first visit in late summer 2015 - where the crowd enjoyed the outdoor patio.

As you walk through the doors you become instantly aware that you are stepping into something extraordinary. To the left is a boulangerie that rivals many of the ones I have visited in Paris; straight ahead is the dinning room, which instantly ignites memories of my visits to Ladurée on the Champs-Elysées and Angelina on Rivoli; and to the right is the bar, both elegant and inviting. For this visit Mr. G. and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend late lunch early dinner in the bar area.

 Framed drop ceiling .. 
the decor is breath taking! 

They offer a great selection of oysters ... pick your favourite or discover a new one

I am not much of a French onion soup gal ... but I did try Mr,.G's and it was impressive.

Mr. G. is a true connoisseur and he was still raving about how amazing it was the next day.

Mr. G. went for the Steak and Frites

the beef is raised naturally, hormone & antibiotic free in Grey County

Moi .. 3 cheese omelet topped with truffles .. 

YUM! does not begin to describe how pleased I was with my choice!

Passion Fruit Soufflé - from summer visit

We got our dessert to go from the boulangerie  - and forgot to take photos before devouring the mouth watering works of art, so I'm including a photo of the Passion Fruit Soufflé from summer visit, which I highly recommend you try. It is as scrumptious as it looks! 

Cheers ... 

Mr. G. is already planning reservations for the dinning room ...
I think Cluny's is going to be on the list of our favourite places to dine.

Cluny Bistro & Boulangerie is located in the Distillery District - visit their website here

Temperatures are Warming up in Toronto

It was a gorgeous day to be out and about in Toronto this past weekend. With temperatures reaching 17 degrees Celsius - Mr. G. and I decided it was a "lets get out kinda of day  - with no destination in mind. We hopped on the subway and found ourselves down at Union Station ... while the temperatures were a little on the chilly side down by the lake, I was prepared with scarf and vest.

As we returned home it was still quite pleasant and the scarf was all I needed.

When out and about in the city I find a shoulder bag that I can wear cross body, over my shoulder or carry by handle - a great option for carrying an extra sweater (or on this day vest), camera, or when I'm out writing - a mini lap top etc. 

Jeans - Suko
Sweat shirt - Gap NYC logo crew pull over
Vest - Zara Women (similar)
Scarf - from a  summer market
Sneakers - Converse Chuck Taylor
Accessories: sunglasses & watch - Gucci (similar); ring -  (Atlas)Tiff any; bracelet - (Essence Collection) Pandora; cross body bag - Swiss Army

You are the curator of your life so make it luxurious,
