What day is it anyway? The good news about WFH and losing your place on the space-time continuum is that brunch is no longer relegated to the weekend. Saturday and Sunday are abstract concepts anyway. Treat yourself to a little midweek decadence with this Elvis French Toast. Recipe on the blog, link in bio.

Today is the first day of #Spring but many of us will be spending it indoors. So, I’ve tried to capture the spirit of the season in a glass with help from my friends @sipsmith and @praxispr who generously #gifted me a bottle of their classic London Dry Gin and a copy of SIP: 100 Gin Cocktails with only 3 ingredients. When I stumbled across this Earl Grey Sour recipe in the book, I knew it was the perfect cocktail to celebrate the season. .
.
Earl Grey Sour
.
.
- 2 oz Earl Grey-infused Sipsmith London Dry Gin
- 1 oz lemon juice
- 1 oz simple syrup
- 1 egg white
.
.
.
- Combine the ingredients in an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Shake well. Strain into a cocktail glass.

These are scary and uncertain times. Over the week

These are scary and uncertain times. Over the weekend I felt completely overwhelmed thinking about what may or may not come to pass. I called my parents and spewed out all of my fears and stresses. The mere sound of their voices was a balm for my frayed nerves and heavy soul. .
.
For me personally, that was a great reminder that the things that help calm me down when I get into an anxiety tailspin are the small joys and points of connection that reassure me that it isn't all doom and gloom. To that end, I’m going to be hosting a virtual happy hour on my Instagram story nightly at 5 p.m. Eastern for the next couple of weeks. This is just a small gesture to try to create a sense of community to help make self-isolation feel just a little bit less isolated. I’d love for you to raise a glass with me. Comment below with spirits/liqueurs you have at home that you’d like me to use in my recipes!🍸 .

Luckily, today happens to be pi day so I’m sharing one of my more ambitious baking projects from last summer: an Apricot, Plum & Almond Tart. How are you keeping yourself entertained at home? .

Currently craving: Thai Beef & Mango Salad on Vermicelli Noodles. This meal salad is jam-packed with flavour and textures. The sweetness of mango is the perfect counterpoint to the spicy dressing and umami steak. Get the recipe on the blog, link in bio. .

Monday mood: stand out. .
.
If I were an animal, I would probably be a peacock (or a leopard). I have a big personality and am not afraid to show it.
.
.
In my day job, I work in business development which means I do a lot of networking. Often in these types of scenarios you only have a few precious moments to forge a connection with someone. My goal is always to be memorable. Whether it’s a thought-provoking question, a joke, a novel insight, or just my outfit, I always aim to leave an impression. Whether they liked me or not, hopefully they won’t forget me. .
.
How do you stand out from the crowd? .

I’m wearing this smile because it’s Internatio

I’m wearing this smile because it’s International Women’s Day and I’m reflecting on all the incredible women in my life.
.
.
My mother has been the president of her own logistics company for over 30 years - trailblazing in a largely male-dominated industry. She taught me the importance of a firm handshake at the age of 5. She is easily one of the biggest role models in my life and inspires me to pursue all my goals in a professional setting and beyond. .
.
My friends are an assortment of brilliant, strong women who achieve excellence across a wide array of fields - from politics to psychology and beyond. They are my support system and I’m so grateful to count them as counselors, cheerleaders, and champions. .
.
My colleagues teach me something new each day and make collaboration a pleasure, not a chore. .
.
And I would be remiss not to mention my book club. Now in its 10th year, the @unputdownablebc is a women-only space for debate, discussion, and plenty of wine. I’m so lucky to have them challenge my perspectives and invite new ways of thinking. .
.
Happy International Women’s Day to all!
