I can haz? mmmm
Woke up to snow. Dang cold out today brrrrr.
Dad’s butcher is at a FARM! Pretty packed there this morning. After that we went to brekky at Angie’s Kitchen in Waterloo then to a hardware store.
Beer store then liquor store. Didn’t know Rickards Dark was made w/ maple syrup. Might be tasty, eh?
Now we go to Cambridge Centre, Best Buy, Future Shop, Walmart and all the other big boxers.
All I wanted for Christmas was to hang out w/ Dad 🙂
2010 has been the most awesome year yet. I’ve always held 2004, my year in Australia as the best year but now I’m ready for 2011. I’m looking forward to working with more great people, sharing more things with you and giving back.
Yesterday I was named one of the Women’s Post’s Top 8 Web Savy Women of 2010. Here’s what the lovely Erin Bury wrote about me:
Casie is one of Canada’s most well known online personalities, and a true force to be reckoned with. Whether it was helping to build MuchMusic’s online brand; winning the coveted title of Toronto’s Virgin America Provocateur; or creating unique and entertaining content on her CasieStewart.com blog; Casie has spent 2010 building her online portfolio, all with her signature spunk and sense of humour. Warning: don’t start reading her blog if you have a lot to do – it’s seriously addictive.
Thank you Erin. Check out all the other lovely ladies right here.
In other news, Eye Weekly posted this today:
Local writers, bloggers, chefs, filmmakers, dancers and several Toronto Raptors tell EYE WEEKLY’s Kate Carraway what’s on their holiday wish-list this year:
Casie Stewart, blogger: On my list is XBOX with Kinect. I wanna master the dancing game and have a dance off! Sanasaaaaaa!

Heading home to see Dad for the holidays. Really looking forward to his jokes and spending some time time in Cambridge with old friends. (Yo, message me if you are around peeps!)
BTW, have you seen Mariah Carely lately? WHOA HUGEEEE. Remember when she used to look like this?
Happy Holidays 🙂
P.S. If you are downtown tonight come see Prince Perry @ Bovine.
Hey friends! What are you doing tonight? My friend and totally cool dude otherwise known as Prince Perry is playing at Bovine tonignt.
Never been to Bovine Sex Club? One of the most legendary music venues this city has.
Happy holidays come have a dance and a drink 🙂
She sailed all the way from North of Toronto to the Bahamas with her BF. They cleared customs yesterday. I can’t WAIT to go visit them.
Check out Mum’s back yard! This is their very first sunrise. So very cool and beautiful.
I’m missing her but I know she wanted to do this for years and I’m inspired by her courage and determinaton.
I LOVE YOU MUM. Keep it up. xo
p.s. As I typed this a commercial for The Sound of Music came on. That’s Mum’s fav movie. WHOA.
had a hot date w/ raymi the other day and i will tell you more about it later.
Big news. Remember how I was going to LA for NYE? Well, change of plans. I’ll get to LA early 2011. I’m flying to Montreal on Porter Airlines to stay at my beloved W Hotel with Raymi and friends. Big thanks to the INQ Mobile team for putting this all together. You can enter Raymi’s contest to come here on INQ’s FB.
I’M STOKED. OMFG. GONNA BE THE MOST CRAZY AWESOME PARTY EVERRRRRRRRRR.
You can follow all the crazy via #INQNYE.
XO CASIE PERRY
P.S. Did an interview for a NY/LA/Dallas online mag called Pink Memo “Virgin America Get’s Awesome”
Tonight, for the first time in about almost 400 years we’ll get to see a lunar eclipse (think seriously how long that is? whoa mang). Listening to the news now and Global says Canada is the best place to see it. Starts for Eastern Canada about 1:45 am. The moon will turn redish which will be really really neat.
Super cool part about tonight is it’s happening on the Winter Solstice, for the first time since 1638. WHOA science!! Darkest day in 327 years 8) #talknerdytome
All the deets can be seen in this post from Yahoo and here’s some tips from Gawker:
* Locate the moon. (Hint: It’s in the sky.) The earth’s shadow should start showing on the moon’s lower left around 1:33 a.m. Eastern time, which is when Fallon ends, if you’re on the east coast, or halfway through Hawaii Five-0, if you’re on the west coast.
* The shadow moves slowly, but by 2:41 a.m., the entire moon will be covered, and will stay that way for an hour. The is the optimal time for consuming your peyote, playing your war drums, murdering people, etc.
* The shadow will start moving again at 3:53 a.m., and the moon will be back to normal by 5:00 a.m. At this point it’s appropriate to do your winter solstice folk dances and poetry recitals.I’ll be star moon gazing tonight! xo
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 have this bag in Leopard/Black and Zebra/Pink and it’s been a fav for a couple years. It’s washable, reversible and a great clutch for any event. I pack it full of sunnies or jewelry when I travel. You can order through @bettykiss (my friend Arianne), there’s only zebra/pink ones left though.
Nella Bella
Fav I use pretty much every day. Lotsa pix here. Check out all the style’s at nella–bella.com.
Cannon Powershot SD 1300 Camera
I’ve been through several models of this camera since I started blogging. It’s my preffered point & shoot. It’s made of steel on the outside which is great because I break everything. Nuff said.
iPad w/ wi-fi
We don’t we even need to discuss this do we? I love my iPad. His name is Andy. I have heaps of apps: Twitter, Flipbook, Angry Birds, Cut the Rope, Packet Frogs, Where’s Waldo, Essentials Language (Spanish, French), Draw Free, idoodle, NFB, Dazed Magazine, Net-A-Porter, Mashable, Netflix, Virtuoso Piano, Yoga HD, Pirate Me, Talking Carl, Crazy Face, Smurfs, Air Hockey and a couple others. Picked up a slick bamboo Dodo Case, USB, SVideo & card reader atachments also.
These are amazing. Best boots I’ve ever had. I never wear socks and they keep my feet so warm. The lining is marino wol and the outside is rubber with fur. I’m wearing them inside right now. Totally worth the price.
I’m real excited for 2011 and will be doing more giveaways, parties and awesome things. Bring on the new year!! hiyaaaaaaaaaaaaa! #highkick
