5th Element Review

Unique Treat Lately, desserts have been making me sad. Caramel slice. Baked cheesecake. Even the humble chocolate mud has been getting me down. Don’t get me wrong, classics like these will always have a special place in my heart, along with things like Degrassi Junior High and Brad Pitt. It is[...]

Sugar and Spice Mini Review

And All Things Nice What are little Allys made of? Sugar and spice and all things nice, that’s what little Allys are made of. Well, in reality, I was sweaty, wearing old gym clothes, and probably didn’t smell that fantastic. But at that moment, sitting in Sugar and Spice in the city, I f[...]

Simpatico Review

Fast BreakI can be extremely grumpy of a weekday morning. I have been known to scowl at people when they try to talk to me. When people chirp “Good Morning!”, I grunt in return. I’m not one of those people who needs caffeine before they can function normally-I’m just always i[...]
