HOT IN CARTEGENA, COLOMBIA! 

COLIN & JUSTIN’S CANDLE EXTRAVAGANZA!

How many jobs can one person have? Well, as Madonna said to Colin & Justin on the TIFF red carpet, “I can do it all”…or something like that! Colin & Justin have added another line to their fabulous resumes as connoisseurs of all natural scented candles. Together with Justin’ sister Colette and husband Alan, they’ve managed to share their passion of scented candles with the rest of the world just in time for the holidays! 

Tried and tested by yours truly, I’m super loving the simplicity and refined look of the candles themselves. My personal favourites are “Scots Pine” and “Cedar and Rosemary”. All candles are made in Scotland and can be shipped to Canada! Yeah!! 

If you haven’t finished your holiday shopping yet, then look no further! Check out Colin & Justin Home UK now and cross off one more thing on your list.

And don’t forget…Designer Scents = Happy Home

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING (to all my Canadian peeps)! It’s the perfect day to tell all the people in your life how much you appreciate them!

And so, I thank each and every one of you for being so supportive with everything that I do! 

Here’s what I’m really, really thankful for this year…

1) I’m a TITA (Auntie)!! I swear to God…little Ella should be a Gerber baby. Move over Tyra…she’s the next Baby Top Model. Those eyelashes are killer. 

2) That I get to travel for WORK! I just counted the stamps in my passport and I’ve already travelled 15 times this year. I remember when I was filming Home Heist and I barely had time to enjoy a holiday with my family. Working in television is definitely time consuming. So now that I get to travel and get even 30 minutes at the beach…life doesn’t get as stressful as it used to be. 

3) Being able to maintain great relationships with my friends and family regardless of where we are in the world. I hate to say it, but thanks to Facebook and Twitter, I’ve been able to connect with my favourite people instantly. It’s strange that we don’t just pick up the phone anymore, but the world is changing and I’m just trying to keep up! 

My closest family and friends have put up with my crazy schedule for so long, so thanks again for your patience! You know I love you all!!

Considering that I used to be anti-Facebook, I’m so thrilled to see that I’ve got 1100 fans already! So FAB and I love seeing all the comments each day. That really makes me SMILE :)

4) To all my suppliers/clients/networks who are supporting all of the projects that I work on, whether its for an article, or a TV show….you are the reason why I am successful at what I do!

Special shout outs to the people that have bent over backwards over the past few months.

And for my Canadian fans, I’ll keep you posted for Food Network Canada schedule. So excited that it’s going to be playing on my home turf soon!

A special thanks goes out to Robert, Tom, the Division 9 peeps and the RI production crew. And of course, SEABROOK WALLCOVERINGS and AMERICAN CARPET WHOLESALERS! I appreciate all your support to help make this makeover happen.

Had a great time at the Caesarstone Event last night. The ROM was the perfect venue and I choose 1550 Ocean Palace as my favourite new colour! It was so great to see all of the fab suppliers that I’ve worked with in the past. A few of them did a double take when I said hi. Two reasons: I’ve grown out my hair since I last saw them (a year ago) and I was 6 inches shorter because I was wearing FLATS!! I know, the first event without my stilettos. Crazy!! 

Don’t forget to check out the Caesarstone’s One-of-a-kind Collection!

Enjoy!
