Friends of Earlscourt Park

"Working together to better our vibrant neighbourhood by bettering Earlscourt Park - one swing, one tree and one picnic table at a time." That's the slogan for the newly formed group, Friends of Earlscourt Park, a volunteer group that is working towards all around improving this west end park with new gren space and community events.

We used the park a lot over the summer (beach volleyball? Awesome!) and are hoping to put on our skates and try out the rink for the first time, that is whenever Toronto decides to be Canadian again and have a proper winter. It's great that there are people out there taking the initiative to build a community for the park and we look forward to hear more about their plans for 2013.

We also think the FOEP logo is really cute :)

Showing some Blog Love

Torontonians have got a lot to say. Everything from food, fashion, and tech, we often find that the best info we can find on the city are from locals who take the time to write 'em up. Thought we'd share a few of our faves in our first round of Blog Love!

The rules of this award are as follows:

1. To accept the award, you must post it on your blog with the name of the person who has granted you the award, and a link to their blog.
2. Pass the award on to approximately 5-10 other blogs that you recently discovered, and think are great!
3. Contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

In no particular order, here is the list of whom we're passing on to:

Sanagan's Meat Locker
If you love meat, you'll love this blog. Created by Peter Sanagan, who owns the Kensington Market butcher shop of the same name, this blog features product info and recipes using Ontario meat and poultry.

The Adventures of Accordion Guy in the 21st Century
Who knew Toronto had a famous accordian player? We first discovered Joey DeVilla one night at the Rivoli's Sunday night Kickass Karaoke, where he showed off his talents on stage. You can continue to follow his adventures on his blog and find out where he'll pop up next.
