Can’t get enough of holiday gift guides? Dig into the 90-item whopper from TorontoLife.com, a guide to pop-up shops from FashionMagazine.com, kids books from Quill & Quire, trendy gifts for girls at Wedding Bells and a culinary wishlist from Ottawa Magazine’s food editor.
All done with your shopping? (Seriously?) Whip up some fudge à la 20 Minute Supperclub or just ooh and aah at the pretty lights in Torontoist’s decked-out homes slideshow. (more…)
News flash: Toronto is still occupied. And it’s five weeks (!!) till Christmas, folks: Fashion Magazine has 95 stylish gifts for everyone on your list. Plus, Andrew Westoll speaks about his experience writing about chimps in a Quill & Quire podcast; the chimp photos are cute, but Wedding Bells’ shots of 50 pets dressed in their wedding best takes the cake.
It’s c-c-cold across much of Canada this weekend as the competition for the nation’s culinary champion heats up in Ottawa. Keep warm with a wedding chick flick or an award-winning food-centric read like Flavours of Prince Edward Island. Better yet, fire up the oven: 20-minute Supper Club confirms our theory that brie should always be baked. And, unrelatedly (we’re easily distracted by shiny things), aren’t Toronto’s new streetcars pretty?
This week it’s a double dose of cute, with kids in adorable Halloween costumes and designer dogs.
And it may still be fall, but Christmas is in the air: the update on Toronto’s Santa Claus Parade (November 20 !) and, for your holiday shopping pleasure, Google finally launches its Canadian e-bookstore.

It’s an autum-tastic at St. Joseph Media this week: Oktoberfest recipes, hidden Ottawa, a Toronto ghost map, Bridal Fashion Week and…watch out, Calgary! Boobyball is coming your way.
