Thank you so very much to everyone who entered this years holiday gifting. Big thanks also to the companies who donated gifts. I have notified all the winners across Canada. there are some I have met and haven’t met. So fun!! In 2011 we’ll have more and more goodies for you. I believe Santa is delivering some more stuff before NYE so stay tuned for that. Have a wonderful day and this is me giving you a huge hug!!!!! 🙂 Mum – my drawings remind me of Quentin Blake from Roads Dahl or Phoebe Gillman’s Jillian Jiggs. Ya?

Made a wee list of a couple things I really enjoy having. I would never have this stuff without recomendations and introductions from a bunch of you.  I appreciate it. Here we go: Yoga Jeans from Shop Girls Gallery Boutique I was invited t the shop and given jeans and they are super comfy for someone who hates pants. I haven’t worn jeans in years and now I love these ones. I wear them when I travel and they are so comfy on the plane. They never lose their shape. I have dark denim and this one time I spilled a beer on me when flying and you could hardly even tell. It dried in no time and I got another beer. Bam Jamz Bamboo clothes Was given this at the TIFF gift lounge and I’ve been living in it since. The tank top has a panda on it’s really comfy. I like looking stylish but I also like no fuss, feel good clothes. Mine is pajams/yoga wear but I wear it as day clothes. Also great for traveling. You get it at at these stores. Marks Work Warehouse super long soft cardigan Before New Zelanad Fashion week I was invited to Mark’s. One of the things I got was this super long soft cardigan that I have been wearing like crazy. It’s really nice for around the house. Soft like a more stylish snuggie for traveling. Warm too. I woud buy one for all my girlfriends if I could afford it. Joe Fresh Nail Polish & Lipstick * need manicure Got these at athe TIFF gift lounge too. I have Cherry, Tomato and a matte topcoat that I wear all the time. I like redish tones the most.  There’s matching lipstick for both too. Betty Kiss Reversible Clutch I…

This week I interviewed Riza Javellana, a Toy Expert at Mattel Canada. I asked questions I wanted to know. I am five year old inside and love toys and I refuse to lose the childlike sparkle in my eye. You will find it fun if you are wondering what the hell to get your sisters kids or your brother-laws cousin or that special munchkin in your life. 🙂 * natalie dee drawing What is the most “tech” toy out for kids this year? For girls, Barbie Video Girl has been a real hit. (I HAVE THIS! It’s awesome.) It enables girls KIDS to capture memories with a camera lens hidden in Barbie’s necklace and a colour LCD screen on her back. It’s movie-making from Barbie’s point of view. It is compatible with Windows and Mac and even comes with editing software, allowing kids to add music and graphics to their videos. I can imagine this product being a real hit for those kids who love singing to videos. It’s an all-in-one entertainment toy! What is the most popular toy this holiday season for boys, for girls? (both!) For boys, the Hot Wheels Criss-Cross Crash Track Set has been very popular. With four intersecting crash zones, it allows kids to line up their Hot Wheels cars and let them rip for near misses or total wipeouts. With more than 16 feet of track that includes hairpin turns, motorized boosters, and a giant crash zone, kids can enjoy crash and bash fun all holiday long. For girls, the entire line of Monster High has been a big hit! The new Monster High franchise was recently launched with doll characters who are modern teenage descendants of classic monsters. They are undergoing the trials and tribulations of high school. Characters include Draculaura, Clawdeen Wolf,…

Was browsing some profiles on about.me last night. I love how the pages look. It’s real easy to customize and connect all your stuff from around the web too. It’s also free 🙂 I imagine I’ll be changing up the text and photo often. I really like how all the content updates in real time. Have a look around. It’s pretty neat. Here it is:  about.me/casie

Last night was fun. Didn’t take many pix but there are a few from Rannie aka @Photojunkie. I look pretty tanned beside the lovely Keri. My darkness reminded me of ‘African Child’ by Aldus Snow, LULZ. Shawn Hawaii and i killed the dance floor. Like, lit it on FIYAHHH. You know this little rascal, Brock McLaughlin. My outfit was a hit. Rarrrrrrr. Have you seen Get Him to the Greek? It’s deff worth watching. So hilarious. The event last night raise over $61,000 for the Daily Bread Food Bank. SO RAD! NICE TWERK! I took these three photos. Ha, soooo unlike me. Was busy chatting and dancing. I slept in past 1pm, missed my hair appt. Damn. (SORRY DARREN!) Ate some Shepherds pie and am now watching the old classic ‘All I Want for Christmas’. Today is a good day. No contest today. I’ll notify all the winners later (hopefully!). Happy Friday, I am the couch xo p.s. this too.
