Seedy Saturday Community Vlog

Hi guys: On Saturday Feb 16, 2013 I was at the Seedy Saturday and Garden Expo at the Pickering Recreation Complex it was from 11am - 4pm and the admission was $3 for each person. It got to interview Mandy Smiles, she is the Events and Volunteer Programmer for the cityofpickering.com  Thank you Ms. Smile for the talk. Please check out my video to see our interview here.

There were vendors and they had cool things to show and sell. I got also got to talk to Barb from Pickering Museum village Heritage gardening group. She talked to me about seeds and plants. I didn't have any seeds to exchange but she gave me some anyway. Here is what I learned from Ms Barb. She said that the orange and yellow calendula sprout very beautifully but in the summer you have to take out all  the seeds because if you don't, they will loose their colour. She also said that if you forget one. It will plant by itself. Thank you Ms Barb for the seeds and the lesson.

I also checked out the kids corner. I got to colour a picture and I got the fixing to start a plant from seeds. You can do that too at home too. Check out my video for the details. Here is what you need to have first...a zip lock bag, seeds, one sheet of paper towel, 60 mls or 1/4 cup of water.

Check out some more of my pictures here too.

It had a great time. Peace and Love Brooke

Toronto Auto Show 2013 - Corvette Stingray/Viper GTS

Hi: Happy Family Day if you are reading this on Monday February 18. We had a long Family Day weekend. Here is one of the things we did and one of my favourite events. On Sunday February 17, 2013 I went to the Toronto Auto Show 2013. We got on the train at Rougemont and exited at union station. I love trains. Whoohoo! At the station we met a cool new friend Radek Garbowski the co-founder of unhaggle.com  You can follow them here too www.twitter.com/unhaggle We talked to him for a bit. This is what I found out, if you are looking for a car. Just call his company and they do the bargaining for you. So you get the best price for your car. I thought that it was so cool so we even asked him to do a shout out. So that other people could find his company too. You can see the shout out in my vlog. :) Thank you for the ballon.


I was also on the hunt for my friend Melissa Daniell @__TinkerBella on twitter. She is a model. I knew she was going to be here and I really wanted to see her again. She is in the vlog too. Thank you Melissa for the awesome interview. You are so sweet and kind. oxoxo

We went to the GM section and saw the new Stingray. Wow! Omg!!!!! The stingray was awesome and very very cool.

We also saw the @HotWheelsCanada Chevy Camaro. It was so hot. I would love to drive this call one day.

@Beyonce inspired henna tattoo for kids

Hi: Many of my facebook friends and subscribers were asking questions about my henna. Some even asked if I could do a vlog about it. So I was at my local flea market on Sunday and I got a new henna design on my hand. I wanted to show how Khatija did it. I also got to ask her some questions. It was really a cool experience. Henna on the hand usually last about 1 week. When she puts it on you have to wait 1 hour. Then you can rub the paste off. This design cost 10.00 but a smaller one cost 5.00 I used my allowance to get this one. What do you think? Do you like it? :) You can also buy your own henna and do it yourself. I'm going to do that next time.

Check out my vlog here. 

Check out my henna tatto after the paste dried and I washed it off. 
Beyonce likes henna tattoos too. Check out Beyonce here showing off her henna tattoo. Mine is kid size. :) Hers is so pretty. She is such a fashionista. I love Beyonce! oxoxo
