We enjoyed the exhibitions at the @ayalamuseum, especially the Gold of Ancestors, which showcases pre-colonial cultures in more than a thousand pieces. We were absolutely awed by the craftsmanship and creativity. Admission is free on May 19th in celebrati

How to get me to buy an airport potato latte that I certainly don't need after a full meal? Put a cat on it! #hellokitty #travel #airportfood #southkorea #exploresouthkorea #latte

Happy Mother's Day! I'm celebrating my amazing mom, and all the moms I know—even knowing you is an honour! Moms can take many forms, but one thing's for sure—they make life sweeter and you know you can count on them—biological moms, step moms, "moms", tit

A visit to @gardenpartyflowers is always a good idea. I don't know about you, but I find that dropping by a flower shop brightens even the most trying days. It's hard to feel bad when you are surrounded by beautiful and sweet-smelling blooms, and greeted

Dessert at @botanistdining is a lovely treat: Meyer Lemon Polenta Cake with apple, honey, angelica brûlée and lemon buttermilk ice cream. #diningyvr #yvr #desserts #dining

Homemade buttery biscuits. I used fromage blanc and milk instead of buttermilk. Oh, so creamy, yet light. Butter from @avalondairybc. Happy thoughts. #bakinglife #biscuits #butterismybae

Baby shower afternoon tea with the ladies. 👶🍼 So excited for @natashaamy (and at @noahnjbowman)! #celebrations #yvr #tea

Making fondant with marshmallows and powdered sugar can be a really good meditative culinary exercise. Bonus: they are cute and lovely to work with. #baking #bakinglife #fondant #homemade

It seems wrong to bore a hole into a @miette cake (Hot Milk Cake and Vanilla Buttercream), but it happened. Here's to celebrating a colourful 19th year, @allipeth! #baking #miettecakes #bakinglife

Sunday reading. Finally got my hands on @felsull's book #FollowMeIntoTheDark after some challenge getting it via @amazoncan and @chaptersindigo (Chapters was much faster!). #reading #books

Dark secrets in quiet spaces. Don't miss @decolonialgram's exhibition at the @vanartgallery. I liked his playful digital interventions on Emily Carr's paintings. On another note, I didn't know what "chug" meant before seeing his (desk) installation. #art

Never underestimate the power of first impressions. And flowers. @dalinavancouver's floral selection was a nice warm welcome after a chilly walk in the rain. What a lovely spot! Their mocha is everything. #cafeyvr #vancouvereats #chinatownyvr

Gorgeous weather + fun weekend with family and friends in Victoria @tourismvictoriabc. We certainly packed a lot in less than 2 days: @uvicphoenix production, @royalbcmuseum, @vicshakespeare and @agriusrestaurant @folepiyates. Happy to discover @oswegovic

Love that our room at @oswegovictoria had a kitchen w/ a sizeable counter. Definitely made assembling carrot cakes easier. I guess I could have baked them there, too. 😁 #travel #hotels #yvrgetaways
