All Things British

Looking for cute stuff from England? Check you Empire on 717 1/2 Queen Street East at Broadview.
They have a great selection of Marks & Spencer food and teas, Walker Crisps and other uniquely British paraphernalia. They've only been open for about 2 weeks, but the shop is so cute, I'm sure they'll do well. I'm going back to buy some cookies and tea from M&S for myself and some for my Grandmother.
Check out the Facebook page: Empire the collection!

Kimberley Jackson Furniture

Kimberley Jackson makes gorgeous furniture. They are located in Riverside at 700 Queen Street East, just west of Broadview. They use salvaged materials to make the furniture and accessories. I love that not only are the pieces beautiful and affordable, but also green! Wouldn't you rather have a piece of furniture that had a previous life, rather than something made from virgin wood?
This weekend only they are having an amazing sale, with almost everything at 50% off. Now is the time!!!
Also, a little birdie at the store told me that if you miss the sale this weekend, and talk about it at the store this week, they'd most likely still give you the sale price...
Check it out!

Take Away Meals

I bought a Groupon for Loic Gourmet to Go. I thought it would help a bit to use when I go back to work this September to have some prepared healthy meals. Loic is located in Riverside- yes, that's right, not Riverdale, Riverside. If you're looking at eastern Toronto neighborhoods along Queen Street, if you start with the Beach and move west, here's how it goes: The Beach, Leslieville, Riverdale, Riverside.
I used to to be nervous around the Riverside area- not anymore. Its super trendy and has great shops and boutiques to look in and shop around.
My sister's favourite florist is located here as well, Stemz- seriously, they are true artistes!
Anyways, back to Loic- its a beautiful shop with tons of fantastic food to choose from as well as jarred gourmet sauces, mustards, spreads and pastas. Great gift ideas for people with new babies and such. The owner sources the meat from Cumbrae's (a third generation local butcher) , so its hormone and antibiotic free. Walking into the store, I felt like I was in a small town where everyone is friendly and talks about the weather, rather than metro Toronto. Very welcoming, friendly and eager to assist. The food? Not sure yet, I bought some food for a friend (she and her husband have a new baby) and some chicken for my family, which we haven't had yet- I'll get back to you about the taste (the bottom line, really!). But if the food tastes anywhere close to the experience, I'm sure it'll be fab!
