Once upon a time there was a young girl who dreamed of living in the City of Lights. When she started to
become a woman she found a passion for baking and cooking. As she grew and
matured she realized her dream of Paris and her love of baking could merge into
one. Somewhere along the way she also gained a love and appreciation for shoes - and so this is where the story begins: my warm comfortable bed in Edmonton, AB - with a clear view of my over filled walk-in closet and ever growing shoe collection.
My tale begins in Edmonton, at the age of 12 I started baking and fell head over heels in love with it! By the time I was 15 I started looking into post secondary education and also had a brilliant idea - pastry school in Paris! It was also around this time I gained an appreciation for designer footwear (and an overall general love of shopping). Graduating high school with honours and after my Dad had a serious heart attack my parents granted my wish and allowed me to go to school in Paris!

School was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had, the people I met, the places I saw, and living in one of the fashion capitals of the world allowed my shoe collection to grow. Now I am back home and the pastry chef at a cafe inside a luxury department store - which has allowed my shopping addiction to run free reign...
