My New York Producer flew in to Toronto to see my new and improved plastic face and who did he bring to my Yorkville condo? Mimi M.
As if I needed one of the Canada’s top models to see my post-Botox face immediately after the procedure, but she loved it. I could tell she was a […]

I feel bizarre, tingly, and kind of frozen after returning from my very first Botox treatment. A clinic got me in on short notice because I offered to write an article for them. Of course I won’t admit in the article that I actually had the procedure, but I can conclude that it isn’t that […]

Uhhhh… it’s getting old. Elmo complaining that I don’t give him enough attention. Why doesn’t he understand that I have so much to do?
My parents want me to have a job (that I got), I want to design and sew, and he wants to see me. How can I tell him he’s last on the […]

Fiona’s messages made me realize that I’ve got to make the television show a success at all costs, so I’m going to give in to producers and get a touch of Botox.

Oh, man! I woke up to a 9am phone call. Why wasn’t I at the Design Exchange to start counsellor training for their Summer Design Camp? Yikes!

The weekend? Gah! What did I do? Seeing Elmo with the guitar got me again. I don’t like his sentimental songs, but he does get me every time he dedicates one to me.
Why did I have him over?
I’m just going to have to break his heart - again - because I’m going to […]

Will Fiona’s e-mails never end?
They began after the Mille Femmes party:
Lucinda, you mean,evil, vengeful skank!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How dare you deface my Mille Femmes photo!!!!! It was a supposed night to celebrate Toronto’s creative women and then you go and pull this immature bullshit drama. Why can’t you put the past to rest??????? This was verrrrrrrry unsophisticated of […]

Sitting in my Toronto condo last week, trying to write this column, I found myself distracted with constant computer pings. At first, I thought it was a series of messages from well-wishers who had seen my lovely Mille Femmes portrait at Luminato, had read – and loved! – my latest column, or heard about my […]

So, I ended up asking Elmo to help me with my Project Runway Canada audition video, which was good and bad. Good because he’s pretty much a video genius. He shot and edited a wicked entry in like, 2 hours yesterday, so that was super-fantastic. But it also meant that I promised to go see […]

I have always been supportive of aging gracefully and eschewing plastic surgery, but if becoming part of the Restyline Retinue means I’ll get a TV show, perhaps I should do it. I don’t know; I think I look sophisticated and glamourous as it is. But then the producers threatened to bring in Mimi M. to […]
