I don’t eat to live, I live to eat.
As usual, Day 1 is a travel day. We had left around noon from Ottawa. We made a stop the new Kingston Tesla Supercharger (there are 2 at this site) to recharge the car as well for quick lunch at Panera Bread. I had their pick 2 with BLT with avocado and the broccoli mac… Continue reading Thousand Islands Cottage Trip: Day 1 (Ottawa-Kingston-Wolfe Island)

We now been on a few road trips with our infant. We went to Mont Tremblant with our then 2 month old, then Toronto when she was 6 months old and recently to Prince Edward County at 11 months old. We’re used to packing lights but packing for these trips were definitely another ballgame. Following… Continue reading Lessons Learnt: Roadtrips with an Infant
This morning, we wanted to get some gym time in since we’ve been stuffing our faces with good food. We started with a small snack/breakfast at the hotel’s canteenM. They had a buffet option but we elected for the a-la-carte as we only wanted a small meal before our workout. There was plenty of seating… Continue reading Boston Day 4
We took our time getting up this morning as we did not have any specific plans until later this afternoon. We used the T for the first time and headed to the South End. Our brunch reservations weren’t until later so we stopped by Render Coffee first. Our friend, Aimee, highly recommended this coffee shop… Continue reading Boston Day 3
For breakfast this morning, we went to the famous Mike & Patty’s, a cute cozy sandwich shop. They only had very limited seating and it was very crowded when we arrived at 9am on a Saturday. Luckily, the staff there is very efficient and it cleared out quickly. Many people were getting take-out so we… Continue reading Boston Day 2
After an early but short flight from Ottawa to Boston, we arrived at Boston Logan International Airport at around 8:30am. We were very impressed by the seemingly new airport. There were very clear signs to lead us to the waiting area for Uber/Lyft and it was very organized with assigned parking spots for pick up… Continue reading Boston Day 1
The Inspiration I’ve been listening to Jay Shetty’s podcast and was intrigued by all of his tips on how to live a more purposeful life. One of his practices which really caught my attention is him setting aside a weekend for him and his wife every 30 days to put away their devices and just… Continue reading Wakefield: A Quick, Quiet One-Day Getaway
On our last day in Montreal, we had to stop for some bagels. We’ve eaten bagels from St. Viateur in the past so we wanted to try Fairmount Bagel this time. They were physically very close together so you could do a head-to-head comparison if you wanted to. The set-up of Fairmount is very different… Continue reading Montreal 2.0: Day 5
Today, we were finally able to have a relaxing, sit-down breakfast. The restaurant we went to was Universal Déjeuner, which served traditional breakfast items. I had a lighter breakfast with cottage cheese and fruits as well as a poached egg on toast. It was alright. Not the best breakfast place I’ve been to. Light breakfast… Continue reading Montreal 2.0: Day 4
