Week o’ Love Giveaway: Sugarwink Cupcakes for your Valentine

categories: Giveaway

I love Valentine’s Day more than anyone over the age of 12 probably should. But what’s not to love about a holiday that celebrates love? And chocolate? Nothing.

So I’ll be holding my usual Week o’ Love giveaway this week!

I’m happy to tell you that the first giveaway will be with Sugarwink!

Sugarwink is an online bakery based in Toronto that specalizes in all types of desserts, from butter tarts to cookies to cupcakes!

I tried the Chocolate Salted Caramel Cupcakes. The cupcake was nice and moist, and the frosting wasn’t too sweet and tasted more like a whipped cream than a buttercream. It was good!

Classic flavours like red velvet and chocolate are available, along with special flavours like Blackberry Cabernet (Moist chocolate cake with Cabernet-soaked blackberries, topped with boozy blackberry buttercream) or Chocolate-Red Wine (A decadent chocolate cake made with a touch of red wine, topped with red wine reduction frosting.)

Sounds delicious, doesn’t it? Sugarwink also makes gluten free and vegan cupcakes and offers free GTA delivery.

We’re giving you the chance to win a box of cupcakes to deliver to that special someone for Valentine’s Day! If you live in Toronto, enter below and you could win! Contest closes on Wednesday Feb.12.

Win Clever Travel Companion Gear!

categories: Giveaway

I’m so happy to bring you a giveaway today from Clever Travel Companion, in honour of TBEX!

TBEX is the Travel Bloggers Expo conference that is held around the world. This year, the conference is being held in Toronto and I’ll be attending! I can’t wait to meet and mingle with tons of new bloggers!

As frequent travelers, bloggers always need good gear. Last year when I was heading to Italy and France, I was researching ways to keep my valuables on me that didn’t scream , “Tourist! Tourist!” Enter Clever Travel.

They design every day items with one extra touch…pockets! Stash your valuables in a pair of boy shorts with a zippered pocket. Pop your passport into your tank top pocket. Going somewhere cold? Bring along their long johns! (they would have been useful for Quebec!)

Not only are they super cute and stylish, they are also incredibly comfortable! I bought the tanktop and underwear for my trip and I was so happy that I did. The large tank top pocket fit my passport and some backup cash. I was able to wear it as a tank top or underneath a zippy sweatshirt.

Today Clever Travel Gear and I are giving one winner the chance to pick one item from their website! Want to win? To enter, tell me the clever place you stash your important things while traveling!

Essie Review & Giveaway!

categories: Beauty, Giveaway, Reviews

The other day I received a lovely little package from Essie, chock full with new shades for the summer. True to this seasons palette, these new shades are bright! With fun names like “Oh So Teeny Bikini” and “All Tied Up” these colours will get you in the mood for summer!

I tried out a couple of the polishes, and I liked them! I’m not used to wearing such bright colours on my nails…but that being said I’m pretty excited to try the orange. Essie polishes go on smooth and are pretty opaque. All of the shades are a flat, glossy finish except for “All Tied Up,” which has a bit of a shimmer.

(yes, I’m a messy nail manicure. I do my nails like I live my life. FAST.)
Essie has given me one set to share with one lucky lady! To enter, fill out the form below and tell me your fav shade!
