Shit Canadians Say, Eh?

I was searching for Youtube for a "Canadian" version of this "Shit ____ Say"  - and it's so true about us! This was posted 4 days ago, and I think they did an amazing job making it. Right now I am the 352,516 viewer, and I am sure it's going to be played many times over :)

Toboggans, touques, and pop! So true!

I want maple syrup so bad, now ;)

Enjoy!

Ellemusic: The Ghost Between - EP is Out Now!

Hey Sweethearts!

I am so excited to finally release my little EP "The Ghost Between"! It's now officially available on iTunes, and if you would like to support me and have your own copy - simply click that iTunes link.

It's been quite a few years since I've put some new material out there. But, it's time. Hopefully the next release will be picked up by some amazing producer, and the sound will be so sonically mind-blowing... Who knows? :)

Hope you all enjoy these tracks as much as I had fun making them :)

So much love,

Gluten-Free Soup from Kettle Cuisine!

Wow! I don't recall the last time having proper chicken noodle soup without it being homemade, and let me tell you - this is very close to it!

I was utterly surprised to find that the chicken in the gluten free soup from Kettle Cuisine tasted proper quality, while the rice noodles were not left soggy and tasted quite amazing heated up over the stove! I posed above with the "Tomato soup with garden vegetables". Also very tasty!

I thought I would write about this gluten-free find, because it was a great one! You can get these soups along with other flavours at Loblaws (and sister companies I believe) You can read more about the company, and other delicious soups they create, here.

Try it, you'll love it! Mmmm...

Bon appetit!

Cults: Abducted - Amazing Song and Band!

I'm currently digging on this new duo from New York called Cults consisting of two lovely musicians - (Brian Oblivion, Madeline Follin) and I can't stop listening to "Abducted"! They remind me a little of Arcade Fire - which is a mighty huge compliment in my books.

They are going to blow up huge! I am usually right about these things as well :)

Enjoy the song "Abducted" below, and get their self-titled album! So great!

Seche Vite - Top Coat Review!

Shame on me for such a late and spaced post! Speaking of space - I painted my nails to look like the galaxy a few days ago with the brilliant top coat from the company - Seche called "Seche Vite", and it's been pretty fantastic to me!

I was in Sephora before Christmas and made quick friends with one of the girls who worked there (she loved my earrings from Stella & Dot) and we decided to trade secrets and she told me about the best top coat in the world!

Like most of us ladies (some men as well), we love to paint our nails but hate the waiting game for them to dry. I found with this top coat that it actually dried within - 5 minutes? It's insane.

I really want to get into gel nail colour, but I think I would have a hard time committing to 2 + weeks of the same colour. So, I feel this top coat is the next best thing, and my nails haven't chipped much - if at all, and with a little person around and playing guitar - my fingers usually look like a hot mess after a couple of short days. So, I'm mighty impressed. 

This product is amazing, and I've been using it for a little bit of time now, and it hasn't failed me yet! Nails still shiny - zero yellowing on light colours and they just feel nice to touch :)

I found mine at Winners - so perhaps you may find it there, but it's available to purchase online as well!

Essie - Shine of the Times (Luxeffects), Seche Vite Top Coat, and Orly "Le Cheateau" Putting them together made for a mini vacation into the galaxy! ;)

If you want to read more about this lovely product and everything else Seche offers - check it out here.

J'adore! 

My New Favourite French Singer: Mara Tremblay!

I just came across this video today, and I am in love with everything about it. Mara's got this lovely sound and her pretty poise in this track.

The whole "Tu m'intimides" album is so brilliant. You have to check it out. It's Magnifique!  

This beauty hails from Quebec which makes her even more - awesomely Canadian!

Ah - I hope to do cool videos like this one day! :)

Enjoy her wicked song and video for  "Le printemps des amants" below!

J'adore!

New "Morten" Couch from EQ3! (Pics of Edie, too!)

If any of you recall, we had a super dark couch in the living room - matching all of the wood and it just felt extremely dark! We have been here for over a year and a half now, and it was time to update the couch that belonged to the previous owner - that we bought from them. It was much easier than moving more in and blah, blah ;)

Really happy with the new couch as it really lightens up the room, and the energy just feels so much better to walk down to in the morning :) It brightens my mood!

Edie also wanted to say "cheese" to the camera. I can't believe she is over 15 months old. Insane! She's so entertaining these days :)

Ellemusic: The Ghost Between (New Song!)

Hey everyone!

So I've been working on this song for quite some time now!  I would enjoy listening to the little fragment that I had wrote, but was so lost on where to go with it. Inspiration struck on Sunday, and I thought that I had better finish this song as I find myself humming it almost everyday! I'll post the lyrics, and the song below them :)

I had a lot of fun working on "The Ghost Between" and I hope you like it!

 The Ghost Between

The crisp air blows through the window
Lonely I am again
Pour me scarlet liquid
bring me back to life again

Creeping through the hallways
wandering slowly through
whatever gets me closer baby
the ghost between me and you

How will I roam the world alone without you?

Baby
Can't stop thinking how this could be good
But Baby
This could haunt us guarantee it would
Baby
I have this feeling and I wish you would
But Baby
It's so Pathetic never understood

I'm reaching out for your hands now
I read a coldness on your face
Do you remember a time
we would laugh we would cry
You would appreciate my grace

We used to both creep down that hallway
kissing heavily through
Whatever brings us closer to feelings of maybe
what was lost between me and you

How will I roam the world alone without you?

Baby
Can't stop thinking how this could be good
But Baby
This could haunt us guarantee it would
Baby
I have this feeling and I wish you would
But Baby
It's so Pathetic never understood

Creeping through the hallways
tip-toeing slowly through
Whatever gets me farther baby
There's ghosts between me and you

Climbing out of the window
oblivion in the mist
You'll find me glowing in darkness knowing 

my heart it won't resist

For now I'll roam our world alone without you...

Baby
Can't stop thinking how this could be good
But Baby
This could haunt us guarantee it would
Baby
I have this feeling and I wish you would
But Baby
It's so Pathetic never understood 

Florrie!

Really loving this girl! The production is killer and I  wish I could sound like this! Have you checked out Florrie, yet?  She has a couple EP's and singles, but I really hope to hear more from her. This England based singer, songwriter, drummer (!? - awesome!)  has some really solid, brilliant tracks and I would say that my favourite is her "Introduction" EP

Check her out in itunes!

I will post a favourite song of mine  "Give me Your Love"

I see her getting big! This is so damn good!

The Tree is Up and Decorated!

Finally got the big tree, and decorated it! A little late this year, as we were in Norway - but, it's up and so cozy and lovely smelling :) You can't beat that evergreen smell...  I call this tree Dr. Frasier the 2nd!

Beautiful vintage music ornament my mother found me :)
