Every September when the world renowned TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival) takes over the film headlines, the lesser known (yet possibly more influential?) PIFF (Philadelphia Film Festival) sneaks into town. Beginning the year I moved to Philly, feeling the void of not attending TIFF, 2019 marks our fourth festival (PIFFour if you will).

2019 is a bit of a milestone year for my relationship. January marked 10 years of when I met Derrick, and in October we are celebrating five years of marriage. To mark this milestone, Derrick gifted us with a surprise trip. And by surprise, I mean I knew what days to book off, and that […]Read Post ›
In one of my recent posts, I wrote that one of the best things about living in Philly is being so close to New York City. As a huge theatre fan, I’ve loved being able to hop on a $15 round trip bus ride to see more Broadway than I’d ever dreamed of seeing. […]Read Post ›
It’s 11:17am, it’s sunny (as it always is in Philadelphia 😉 ), and I’ve just finished my Middle-Aged-Women-And-Me-Wednesday-Morning Class at the gym.

We’ve been up since 3am. There really isn’t much that I would get up for at 3am. After months of training, […]Read Post ›
Friday. We got the call that my dear Grandma Fife was being moved into Palliative Care from her home at the retirement home. Okay, more serious than before, but thankfully we were already back in Canada, and I was planning to spend the following five days to have time for just Mike and Grandma. Friday night, […]Read Post ›
Oh, you won’t like it. There’s not much to do. It’s dirty, and kind of scary. …Well… have fun! It was a dark and stormy night (literally), and Derrick and I were off for a weekend to Atlantic City. Our friend Brandon decided AC would be his birthday destination, and for us, it […]Read Post ›
