I share that little apartment with my boyfriend, Garrett. After months of him making the journey into the city to visit, we moved in together in October 2011. Its be a great adventure and I love getting to spend every day together, even if its just a rushed breakfast together before work.
This is Whiskey, our little buddy and loyal pooch. He's part Chihuahua, part Terrier, part Carolina Dog (American Dingo) and all Mischief. I adopted him in June 2008 and we've been attached at the hip every since. He spends his days begging for treats, hunting squirrels and getting belly rubs.
He goes by plenty of names around here: The Whisk, Chico, Whiskikus, The Frito Bandito, Sir Licks-A-Lot, King of Christmas (given to him by a 5 year old), Little Monster and The Whiskinator.
This was my first little apartment in Toronto, which was the inspiration behind the "Small Home Big Start" title of the blog. It may have been a tiny place, but it had a lot of "character" and charm. I moved in at the beginning of 2008, after I started working in downtown Toronto and I just moved out in October 2011.
Now I've moved into a new apartment with Garrett, in a quieter town that is away from the hustle and bustle of the city. We're still working at making it nice, but already I love it and I'm sure I'll be sharing all the details along the way.

I'd love to hear from you!
