Winterlicious: fine dining, good prices, in Toronto

Every winter, some of the finest restaurants in the City of Toronto participate in the justly anticipated Winterlicious event. They offer fine prix-fixe meals for lunch and dinner at very reasonable prices. If you are coming to Toronto in the winter, this is the time to come! For more information, see the very informative City of Toronto web site. Come for the food and enjoy the rest of the city.

P.S. There is a Summerlicious too! Just as good!

White Whine – a very creative and funny use of tumblr!

tumblr.com and tumble logs can be used for all sorts of things, even for humour, as the very funny White Whine illustrates.

(I think it is more accurately “educated, middleclass whine”, but that’s not as funny! :) )

Thanks to my friend Leta for the tip.

Lucient Freud at the MoMA

Currently the MoMA (The Museum of Modern Art in NYC) has a exhibit of Lucian Freud Etchings. For those not aware of Freud’s work, this could be a great introduction to it. And to fans of his (like my friend, Bruce!), this is a great opportunity to soak up more of his work. See  Lucian Freud: The Painter’s Etchings for all the details.

(Thanks to Occasional Oasis for the pointer).

Occasional Oasis, Bill Israel and Tumblr

I am a big fan of tumblr and I have my own tumble log. But frankly, mine is not very well kept up and looks kinda shabby. For a better example of one, see Occasional Oasis with a template from the talented Bill Israel.
