It's Friday night - what are you up to?
Usually I'm out tearing up Toronto with a few of my girls by my side, but after a long and busy week of moving and what not, I'm taking this weekend off. I have a glass of vin blanc at my fingertips, music turned up and a good book waiting to be read.
Last night was a bit of a different story though, but I'll back up a bit further.
Growing up, I remember when we had Cream of Wheat for breakfast, my dad always asked:
"Do you put the milk or brown sugar on first?"
Of course, my brothers, mother and I all had vastly different opinions and would argue back and forth.
One of my siblings or I would eventually catch on that Dad hadn't said anything yet.
"Okay Dad, what's the answer then? Milk or sugar?"
Without hesitation, my father would raise his hands, assume an air guitar position, and in his best impersonation, sing "Brown Sugar!"
And that's where my Rolling Stones obsession began.
Last night, I was invited to the opening night of "50 years of The Rolling Stones: A Rock & Roll Retrospective Exhibit Opening" at the Analogue Gallery on Queen West. This was a part of the Contact Photography Festival (see I'm making my list happen!), and was the opening night party for the exhibit.
