Sunday Funday

I was no feeling well at all this entire weekend, which was great since I had a midterm on Tuesday! Of course, instead of studying I procrastinated as usual, but it was a good break since I wouldn't have been able to concentrate on my work anyways. 

By now you probably know that I love DIY and finding new things to do on tumblr or pinterest! With that being said a few months ago my friend mentioned to me that she saw this picture on pinterest that was of the "friends" TV show logo with a bunch of pictures beneath it of the persons friends. I thought it was the cutest idea and since we don't really have any pictures in our house of our friends from Guelph we decided to make a little black and white shrine haha! 

Heres a few picture of the finished product of our mantle.... 

 the roommate section

 trying to figure out the placement of everything

Just a little taste...

Just a few things from my winter break at work. Pretty much just stacks on stacks on stacks of everything! Plus, shrimp towers have to be the biggest pain in the ass. Half the time you are just about finished building it and then all of a sudden BAM! they all fall down. I have fortunately learned the tricks on how to master it!

I actually got to take my girlie out on a nice Birthday dinner this year... hopefully it made up for the disaster I was last year:( This girl has been in my life through good and bad (mostly bad) and we've stuck it out! Love her to bits! 

My family and I have been attempting to get our Italian citizenship for a while now! It takes forever to get all the proper documents! We went back 3 times before we finally got accepted and as a celebration we went out for Sushi! haha clearly we are so Italian :) 

The second and third picture of sushi are from the best sushi restaurant in Guelph called Sushi Choice! I have posted the spicy vegetable roll before (i get it every time I can't help it) but the butterfish (the third pic) is also awesome! I've never been a big fan of the raw fish, but I'm starting to expand my sushi choices! 

Finally the last picture of sushi is my first attempt at making sushi that has the rice on the outside. My roommate clearly knows my obsession, because she bought me a sushi mat for Christmas! I've been putting it to good use. I haven't gotten to the professional extent of the sushi in the earlier pictures, but hopefully soon enough I will. 

Shakespeare's Arms has some pretty awesome sandwiches. I got a turkey and brie sandwich (obviously.. brie will be the death of me! I love it too much) 

Pig roast!

I'm sorry I haven't posted much in a while. I have been very busy with family stuff and getting settled back at school!

Here's a few pictures directed towards my diary of a foodie. They are from my summer at work when we had a pig roast! It was the first time I had ever see the full process! It was awesome and so delicious !

SLR on the slopes!

The views from all parts of the slopes in Mont Tremblant are so stunning I couldn't attempt to capture it all through my iPhone. Therefore, I took the most ballsy move of my life and went boarding with my SLR strapped to my neck! These are a few of the shots! Absolutely amazing! I love the look of trees covered in snow! We had such great conditions even though it was -14 degrees Celsius! Enjoy

So pumped for my first time on the slopes this winter!

 Getting ready to go. All bundled up and boiling hot.. until we got to the top of the hill!

It was so windy at the top of the hill the snow was flying like crazy! It almost makes it look like theres a dry ice machine!

The view from the top!

The last view from the hill before boarding into the centre of town! 

Tremblant from the view of my phone

my sister with the giant ice bar 

The fam by the fire.. right before the bar hopping began 

Nothing but JD... of course, because its my favourite 

If you ever go to Mont Tremblant, you can not leave without going to Catherines Crepes! They are the tastiest things you will ever have! 

You also can't leave without some beavertail. I'm warning your though, you must have a sweet tooth to eat this bad boy, its loaded in so much nutella!

Our Japanese night! We were still so stuffed from the crepes we had for lunch, but the food was to tasty we couldn't resist! I figured while at a classy japanese restaurant I have to finally try some sake! It was actually quite tasty but I could definitely not have finished it all to myself. 

I've posted multiple times about the chive, however, this is my first time wearing my shirt in public! I was so excited to find a fellow chiver from North Carolina all the way in Mont Tremblant! It made my night! Not only did I find this champ, there was also a bartender who recognized my shirt and gave me a shot because of it!! Such an awesome night!
