EVER HAVE HAVDALAH?

Wandering through Winner's seasonal toy department on Front Street West, I stumbled upon a lovely little wooden toy set.  When I moved in closer to check the details, the box read something like-

Celebrate the end of the Sabbath with this wonderful kid’s Havdalah Set. Crafted from wood and perfectly sized for little hands, the set comes with Kiddush Wine, a goblet, a braided candle, and incense holder or bisamim and a tray. A wonderful way to introduce children to Jewish culture and heritage.

Priced at $24.99 from a regular $45.00, this would make a

beautiful holiday gift.

FRONT STREET FASHION

I was sipping my Americano at Lettieri Espresso Bar when in my peripheral I spotted something fabulous. 

Meet  Cheree VanDyk.

  I had to introduce myself and get her story.  She's a member of the famous Gilda's Club in Toronto (Cancer Recovery Center at 110 Lombard St).

When she's not taking in Fashion shows where she rubs shoulders with the likes of Jeannie Becker, and the gift bags include stylista favorites like D&G;  she's taking dance, art, and cooking lessons.

 As she answered my questions with enthusiasm I took her in from head to toe.

Cheree is an inspiration to us all, as she is a woman of a particular age, she "feels like 24".  When a stranger of the same age group made reference to one of her mini-skirt ensembles by sarcastically saying "YOU look ready for Spring..." she simply replied

"I'm ready for

 ANYTHING daaahhhhling".

LOVE IT.
