Remember the time summer only started feeling like summer in the middle of August? Yeahhh. Well, here are some things that you can do to enjoy the first week of hot weather we’ve had since June:

I Scream You Scream—Toronto’s NOW magazine and Halifax’s The Coast list the top ice cream joints in each city. I say we spend the next couple weeks trying out each delicious creamery to escape the humidity. You down?

Fall Fashion Gone Frugal—Vancouverites, from Friday-Sunday, the Scotiabank Dance Center hosts Spend On Trend, and exhibition of Canada’s hottest independent designers and a wicked fashion show! Tickets are only $3 online and $5 at the door. 

To See Or Not To See—Calgary’s Shakespeare In The Park is pretty awesome for two reasons: The first is that admission is donation based and second is that their production of Romeo and Juliet uses music by Notorious B.I.G. and M.I.A.  Can’t go wrong.

Spend My Birthday (21st) In Your Birthday Suit—Here is a fun article from The Coast giving you some helpful tips on how to become a nudist in NS. If we were sans clothes all the time, think about how much money we would be saving!

Good Food, Good Times—This weekend, Morden Manitoba celebrates its annual Corn & Apple festival. Your FREE admission gets you a weekend’s worth of entertainment, corn on the cobs and apple cider. Mmmmm…

Anything to add?  Want to send me a b-day e-card? (kidding…but seriously?) Leave a comment or e-mail me at Romi.SYR@gmail.com!
