Katy Perry Releases New Perfume

Thursday, June 30th I decided to visit my aunt in Toronto. Had no idea what we were going to do for the day, so both of us jump on the TTC and headed downtown. I rarely visit Toronto, so everything is new to me. After lunch we headed to Dundas square. Being a photograph I always have my camera with me and notice a crowd gathering. Asking a few security guards what was going on I found out Katy Perry was there making an appearance as she was there releasing her new perfume “Purr.” Always good to be prepared when heading out to explore!!

Photographing for a newspaper full time is thrilling. The anticipation of what you are about to cover is enjoyable. Feature hunting is one of my favourite activies, when I have no assignments and I am unleashed to my freewill. Although the thrill of photographing is fun that is not what this post is about. Spending so much time working and never knowing what you’ll be coving next means that food or healthy food takes a back burner. I would say my diet is about 30/70 when it comes to healthy food vs quick fast cheap food. Planning in advance is key to ensuring a healthy diet when working for the paper. These past few days I have not been so proactive in this area!!!!!!

Strawberry Season Soon to Finish, Raspberry Season Soon to Begin. 
Rain and recent sunny weather has made for nice red plump strawberries. Sunny weather allows the berries to ripen quicker, while rainy weather means they will take longer says Christine Paul owner of Fruition Berry Farm, along with her husband Ken Paul. “Everything has been out of whack due to this year’s spring,” mentioned Paul. Strawberries are expected to carry on through the week but everything is reliant upon the weather. The raspberry season is forecasted to start within the next week to two weeks, again relying on the weather. Currently sugar snap peas and regular shelling peas are available with beans arriving in a few weeks. More information on exact availability and events can be found at www.fruition.ca.
