Top 5: Summertime Secrets
Summer is for cycling barefoot, eating ice cream for dinner and sipping Pimms Cups on a blanket under the stars.
For more favourite summertime pastimes, read on:
Craigleigh Gardens reminds me of a communal garden in London. It’s lovely, romantic, and the perfect spot for you, your lovey dove and a book of Rossetti poetry.
Who wants to toil away at a desk when you can hook up atop the roof garden at 401 Richmond. It’s an urban oasis with eye-popping cityscapes.
Toronto is aplenty with charming patios, and the one at Tati sees us weekly. I love to sit under that fabulous old Manitoba maple with a bowl of moules and a glass of rosé.
It’s hard leave the farmers' market at Brickworks without a belly full of cherries, cheeses and JK’s famous fries. Bring an appetite and lots of shopping bags.
Museums are a cool escape on crazy hot days. My daughter’s a fan of the aquarium at the ROM (some fish are as intricate as an Etro print) and I like the Galleria Italia at the AGO. —Athena Tsavliris
