The old one was against code as it didn’t have an outside railing and the treads were very shallow, a bit of a deathtrap to navigate. These treads were cut to be deep enough for Evan’s size-14 feet. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1625075863829-INB29313E3WFPV7W2JHW/IMG_2013.jpg Blog - By Design - Make it stand out Back in the day at Blakes, London. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1625077167504-Z1WRU1MFZ3YWGG8NFXKV/12.jpg Blog - By Design - Make it stand out I think Evan’s favourite part of the reno is his new wine fridge! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/5ff5369e-20ef-4a6c-ac5f-5c217b2d919f/IMG_9603.jpg Blog - By Design - Make it stand out The basement and walkout to the backyard. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1625077902552-5MMGDVUSKH1N4QEMBQXU/4.jpg Blog - By Design - Make it stand out Herringbone floors weren’t in the budget for our bedroom so standard plank-style was the way to go. The teak dresser belonged to Evan’s parents and my mum scored us these vintage chairs from the funeral home where she works (they were throwing them out).

I insisted the shower didn’t have a curb - I didn’t want any places where water could sit and I like the seamless look of this. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1625076316182-F3CCZ0G6S98N6QBKX1FD/7.jpg Blog - By Design - Make it stand out New lighter-coloured sofas, and a mix of chairs, are on our wishlist for the living area, but I love that we bought these made-in-Canada sofas 25 years ago at Kiosk for our very first place, and that the cushion cover was purchased on our first trip to Venice. The Kartell side table is from the now-defunct Caban; the dining table and chairs from Quasi Modo; and the candelabra from the no-longer Holt Renfrew Home department - all oldies. A friend built the mirrors for us, again decades ago, and the only new item is the clear coffee table from CB2. The room’s not perfect or finished yet but everything has a story and meaning for us. https://www.christywrites.ca/news/2021/6/1/blink-tea monthly 0.5 2021-06-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1622657043605-GVYIEDV760S7X4EW1KPR/Blink_Tea_July_29_2020_14512_Pouring+%28Large+Kinto+Teapot+-+Darjeeling%29_new+copy+2.jpg Blog -

For starters, there’s the architectural provenance: the original building began as an upscale food and wine merchant – a place to buy fresh figs and Valencia oranges in the mid-1800s – before becoming the head office of The Dominion Bank in 1879. A redesign in 1999 saw the addition of a second tower, and One King West launched in 2006 as a hotel and residences. This is the bank’s original vault. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1594400249111-EUX5MPE0DYOZ5F14QGU8/IMG_1190.jpg Blog - One King West https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1594313327995-F0T56YBAF8DD2BMR47C3/IMG_7270.jpg Blog - One King West https://www.christywrites.ca/news/2020/6/29/2udf8hppkx2gkdfh2o6khedybf7sie monthly 0.5 2020-07-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1593450405199-RC6CPIGO1NCNK52NXYCM/Savoy+Suite.jpg Blog - The Savoy Q & A The fresh and unfussy Savoy Suite, a cocoon-like haven with comforts of the decorative and practical varieties. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1593450614108-X32ZG1VOB6737DFZDCJX/SVY-502_Hotel_Entrance_Exterior-jpg+%281%29.jpg Blog - The Savoy Q & A https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1593450486025-TXY5WV8AE9FGYJ0Q15LV/SVY-506_Lanscape_of_London-jpg+%281%29.jpg Blog - The Savoy Q & A https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1593454830761-M9QCORS1VTMT3QI52DEK/IMG_4550.jpg Blog - The Savoy Q & A Babcock peaches, Kingsdown still, blooms and a hand-written hello made for a refreshing welcome in our suite. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1593458331932-A7IWW5E5PKIUOZW158TH/The%2BSavoy%2BExterior%2BFacade.jpg Blog - The Savoy Q & A The Savoy seen from The Thames. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1593450557339-6QP05X5RWK7OWG2FQZZU/Simpsons_Grand_Divan_2-jpg.jpg Blog - The Savoy Q & A Simpson’s-in-the-Strand (established in 1828) where trimmings include buttered Savoy cabbage, dripping roast potatoes and Bramley apple sauce.

As you can see, they don’t scrimp. In addition to Blue Mountain coffee, pastries and piles of fruit, the Inn offers traditional cooked dishes, like scrambled eggs and sausage, or, my favourite, the Jamaican breakfast of the day. This is the salt fish and ackee, with local accompaniments like “festival” and “bammy.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1545339703362-MEK4OW4521JPOP1ZNVEF/beachservice.jpg Blog - Hotel Love: The Jamaica Inn This is another Inn tradition, although one that is nerve-wracking for me to watch.

They’ll have a driver and an air-conditioned car that’s stocked with refreshments waiting. The airport has a VIP club that’s worth joining before you arrive. For a nominal fee, you basically get to jump the huge customs lines. I never thought I would do that but, hey, I’m getting old and don’t want to waste a minute of the Inn’s hospitality or the Jamaican sunshine. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1545339439829-61X7AK3IC7LCUCR0D1W9/Terrace-Dining.jpg Blog - Hotel Love: The Jamaica Inn Dinner under the stars? Yes please! Sip aperitifs and nibble angels-on-horseback on the upper level before you descend to the candlelit dining terrace. The wing to the right, the West Wing, is very private as the verandahs here open to the water so basically no one, but the fish, can see you.

Unlike most beaches in Jamaica, the Inn’s is completely private and fully dressed - there are plenty of seats and towels to go around so there is none of that very uncivilized “saving” of seats that seems to happen at all resorts, even high-end ones. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1545339544155-HUM6GMQDBAG43D7A892W/lobby+to+beach.jpg Blog - Hotel Love: The Jamaica Inn The view from the lobby makes a very good first impression. https://www.christywrites.ca/news/2018/12/6/my-florence-files monthly 0.5 2019-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1544128384713-EW6QHT7L5MR74PWUTNYY/IMG_2397.JPG Blog - My Florence Files https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bb27939fb18207b99a858b2/1544129589283-A66K3Y4FZI8M6J4UW15T/IMG_2866.jpg Blog - My Florence Files I hadn’t tried pasta cooked in Chianti before but can now recommend it.
