The One of a Kind Show (OOAK Show), Holiday Edition has opened and many favourites have returned (it’s their 40th anniversary this year). I am, for one, extremely glad that I ran out of Incredible Spread’Em just in time for the show, as I picked up not one, but two containers of the product (this […]
This year’s Centre Stage competition, which was held this past Tuesday at the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts was another great success, with tenor Charles Sy winning both first place and the audiences’ choice award, making his prize worth a grand total of $6,500 ($5,000 for first place and another $1,500 for the […]
Centre Stage, the annual competition for cash and places in the Canadian Opera Company’s prestigious Ensemble Studio will be held tonight, November 25, 2014. Seven finalists, all dressed to the nines, will be competing for spots and last Friday, I had the wonderful opportunity to observe the pieces that the finalists tried on (you may […]
Yes, it’s for real (brand name is MerloCola) and it’s one of the many exhibitors at this year’s Gourmet Food and Wine Expo. I tried it and have to admit that it was quite…interesting. While the small sample was good, I’m not really sure if I’ll ever have a full serving. I think I’m a […]
The Canadian Opera Company’s Centre Stage will be holding its sophomore event on Tuesday, November 25 at its home, the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts.

This is a favourite event of DelectablyChic! and many favourites look like they’ll be back, including Hank Daddy’s BBQ (known for their pulled pork parfait – something we noted back in a 2011 post for this event), Brix chocolate (they were […]
Now that Halloween is over, it’s time to think about the upcoming holiday season. Whether it’s your best friend, your mom, sister or otherwise, you probably know someone who is obsessed with beauty products that just make her look AMAZING! Or maybe there’s a guy in your life who wants to be the same way. […]
Last Friday, I had the opportunity to attend the Toronto edition of the National Women’s Show at the Metro Convention Centre, covering the event as one of their bloggers. For those of you who follow me on social media, you might have seen many of the pictures! While many of the exhibitors at the event […]
I can’t make myself wear “chunky” jewellery, including big necklaces, earrings and definitely NOT huge rings. This is YEARS after I graduated from high school! In fact, I STILL consider them tacky. I can’t get the “shower curtain earrings” lecture the Head at my school gave in chapel years ago. It’s often nasty and it’s […]
The holiday season is coming up, and it’s a time about giving, not receiving. Sure, as kids, we made long lists to our parents’ dismay, but at school and other youth-related activities, we were also given the opportunity to help. I remember collecting food for the food bank as well as bringing in toys. As […]
