Two years ago, my friend Sarah and I visited Montreal for a quick weekend trip.  She wrote about our visit on her blog and discussed some of our favorite spots.  The only thing she forgot to mention was my favorite North American bar, Big in Japan.

Oh, and if you go to Bota Bota, definitely jump in the river.  Yes, it’s February.  Yes, the St. Lawrence is unbelievably cold.  No, you won’t regret it.

    I just save one of the drawers in my regular fridge for beauty products, jade rollers, etc. 🙂

    I really like mine for face creams and masks!
