Happy Monday Tuesday nuts! As much as Mondays are the worst, yesterday was a busy one that kind of flew by. Next thing I know, I’m already down a day! This weekend, I was lucky enough to take in the Ottawa Food and Wine Festival, which I blogged about a few weeks back. I had a great time with some of my lovely ladies. I then spent the rest of the weekend working, which was especially difficult considering that Kate and Cat hit the open road and reunited with our besties. I was definitely in the dumps on Sunday missing them, but so glad they all got to catch up and celebrate our gorgeous bride-to-be. You better believe I’m counting down the days until the next reunions!

A Statement By The Communications Secretary To Prince Harry. YES. The Royal Family is a huge obsession around the world, but we rarely see them speak out against tabloids and false reporting, especially when it comes to dating rumours. But, this morning, Kensington Palace released a statement about the mistreatment of Prince Harry’s (now-confirmed) girlfriend Meghan Markle and the unfair treatment of her by the press. I’m a fan of hers, from her work on Suits to her charitible causes and global ambassadorship with the UN to her partnership with a big Canadian clothing brand. I hope the media respects their wishes and privacy. I also LOVE that Prince Harry took such a stand.
