Tuesday's Tune - June 27th, 2012 (a day late)

Hello, hello! Hope you're all doing well! I spent an awesome past weekend at my buddy's cottage up north, his place is about an hour past Montebello, and it is located on possibly THE best lake ever! I am super fortunate to be heading up again this upcoming weekend for Canada day, this time staying 3 nights at my best friend's cottage about 15 minutes past Morin Heights. Let the good times roll...

Today's tune features my favorite local artiste, Jess Hart. Originally from Montreal, Jess is now living on the Sunshine Coast in BC. While Hart currently works on her new album, she is enjoying ocean views from her stellar home, I can only imagine how awesome this album will be, based on the influences of her surroundings! I've had the pleasure of hearing a couple of Hart's new tracks, and they're absolutely amazing!
Today's tune is Jess Hart's newly released Single called "Lifestyle Ad", which can now be purchased on ITunes! I guarantee you will all LOVE IT.

Click on the ITunes link to purchase & be sure to check out Jess Hart's website for anymore info! www.jesshart.com

 Cheers! 

Long Weekend!

Long weekend for us Quebec folk!! Enjoy it!

Cheers!

Tuesday's Tune - June 19th, 2012

Last Friday I attended the Radiohead show that took place at the Bell Center in Montreal. Although I absolutely despise watching shows there, it was a given that Radiohead would yet again blow me away. I honestly don't even have words for how awesome they were. So much talent! The sound was incredible, light show was visually stimulating, and just absolutely perfect! I wanted to post a picture of the set that I took, but I left my camera at home today, like a tool.

It would be impossible to pick a favorite Radiohead song, but one of my top 5s is True Love Waits, and I was so pleased to hear them play it as their last song of the night. They remixed it into "Everything in it's Right Place", it was just perfect!
Enjoy!!

OK OK, I just had to give one more... here's another one of my favs "Recknoner"

Cheers xo

My friends are married!!!

This saturday one of my good friends and first of the group got hitched!!! As mentioned last week, I made cupcakes for this special occasion!

Cheers!

MIA

I have been MIA lately due to a hectic, and emotional  couple of weeks. My thought process is just not there and I am sure with time I will be back on track but for now, all I can say is that life is too precious! Enjoy every moment of it and be thankful of your healthy friends and family members. Be there for your friends through thick, and thin. Don't waste your time on petty problems, live life to its fullest.

This weekend is a very special weekend, my girlfriend (the first out of our group) will be getting married! I will be in charge of the cupcakes for this special event, and I cannot wait to share this process with you! It will be Les Gâteaux Mignons' first wedding event! I am nervous, but also super excited! Having said that, I will be extremely busy this week juggling everything and therefore blogging will be at the end of my list! Many pictures will be posted once completed, so be sure to stay tuned!
Lots of love xo

Cheers!  xo

Happy Friday!

Cheers!

Tuesday's Tune - June 5th, 2012

Today's tune is from a local band who many of you have probably seen live in our little town of Hudson, or across Montreal. The Franklin Electric have been producing music for the past couple of years, and are currently working on their debut album! The band is comprised of Jon Matte (vocals, piano and trumpet), Kevin Warren (drums), Jean-Sebastien Leblanc (guitars), Bud Rice (guitars) and Martin Desrosby (bass). These guys have mad talent, and I truly love how original their style of music is, much different from what you hear in the every day mainstream music world.

This summer the band is trying something new, "Find me on a Roof Top Near You". The Band will be travelling from roof top to roof top around the city of Montreal, performing different hits! Be sure to check out today's tune (one of my favorites from the band) called "Old Piano", the first episode from the series "Find me on a Roof Top Near You..."

For more band info, please check out their website at www.thefranklinelectric.com

Cheers!



Happy June 1st!

Woah! its June!

Happy Friday!!
