I’m Rachel. Thanks for stopping by! 👋🏻

I’m a mom, coffee snob, Ravenclaw, cat lady and cardigan collector, living and working in Toronto.

I like to write about all sorts of things, such as books (mostly Harry Potter), random musings, and most recently, parenthood.

Also! Every month I curate a playlist for your listening pleasure. Check it out!

It’s a new month today, and even though we don’t know what day it is and the world is weird right now, I’ve got a new playlist for you 😉⁣ ⁣ In 2018 we celebrated @ammmiem’s Bach with an epic playlist of her favourites. Namely, Beyoncé and Disney songs and nothing else. It is actually still one of my fav things to listen to ✨ ⁣ ⁣ So, in case you need a pick me up, head to the link in my bio for two hours of Beyoncé (including Destiny’s Child) and Disney.⁣ ⁣ Blast it while you work from home, while you cook, for a solo dance party or sing along to it in the shower. It’s a guaranteed mood booster I promise 💕 ⁣ ⁣ #catscoffeecardigans #monthlymixtape #AmélieEverAfter #WaybackWednesday

Things to remember during a pandemic👌🏻⁣ ⁣ ✅ The sun is still shining⁣ ⁣ ✅ Spring is still springing⁣ ⁣ ✅ The Earth is still spinning⁣ ⁣ ✅ It’s important to wear sunscreen even when going for a short walk. Use at least SPF 30 and apply 15-30 mins before going outside⁣ ⁣ ✅ Self-care looks different for everyone. Do what you gotta do to get through⁣ ⁣ #portraitmode #socialdistancing #newnormal #💕

Blurry memories of Halloween 2013 after watching Cats last night. I should just dress as a Jellicle Cat every day. ✨🐱⁣ ⁣ Seriously though you should watch the new Cats movie to escape the world and scream at your TV. It’s horrendous. It’s worse than the zero star reviews. It includes an awful new song by Taylor Swift. Pairs well with wine and anger. 🍷⁣ ⁣ But please also watch the Original London Cast stage production (there’s a movie) to remind yourself that this is a musical about dancing in spandex to T.S. Eliot poetry and THAT IS IT. Why anyone ever tried to make it about anything more profound than that is beyond me. But then again maybe it’s the gift we all need right now. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I have been rehearsing for social distancing since becoming a mom. Top knots and loungewear, now is your moment. #flattenthecurve

The brightest light in these uncertain times ✨Hunkering down for all the couch cuddles for the next little while 😌💕 #socialdistancing #GabrielRutherford

In times of uncertainty, focus on what you can control, like this artfully messy second-day-hair half top knot 🙆🏻‍♀️⁣ ⁣ Stay vigilant friends. Don’t panic, but do change behaviour⁣ ⁣ Stay home when you can, wash your hands. Let’s work together to flatten 👏🏻 that 👏🏻 curve 👏🏻
