October 18-20: what to do/see/eat/drink this weekend

Best part of the short week is, it's already the weekend again! Hope you all had a great weekend. Here's some ideas for you in case you haven't made plans yet!

Do: Looking for something to do with the little ones in your life? This Sunday, Nestle is hosting the first ever Canada Craveyard Halloween Party. Taking place on Sterling Rd, off of Dundas, it is sure to be a fun day with entertainment, a haunted house, a maze, a costume contest and of course candy. The event is from 12-4pm, and you can register here

See: Hosted by Cheri Di Novo, MPP and Peggy Nash, MP, check out a free screening of Chasing Ice. Taking place this Sunday afternoon at 4pm, it is the perfect way to wrap up your weekend. The film is about an environmental photographer who is on a mission to show the effects of climate change in the Arctic. The event takes place at the Revue Cinema on Roncesvalles and tickets are available through EventBrite.

Drink: The ROM's Friday Night Live is back. Tickets are $12 and tickets are available to the special exhibits, if you're a member, you're in for free but you should register. There will be food, drinks and djs. Friday Night Live runs every Friday from October 18th-December 6th, so if you can't make it this week, be sure to get your tickets for another Friday. 

Eat: I love breakfast, any time of day. The White Brick Kitchen at Bloor and Euclid offers a great brunch on Sundays, from 11am-4pm. I tried this place a few months ago and really liked it. It gets pretty busy and doesn't take reservations on Sunday but it is worth the wait. They have a mix of savoury and sweet items, and judging by what's available on the menu now, they like to change it up. If you're looking for a great little brunch place in the west end, I'd recommend trying this place out. And yes, they're licensed so you can get a little "hair of the dog".

Have a great weekend everyone!
