A New Hot Dog Joint, A Luxury Pop-Up, and a $2500 Shopping Spree!

November 3, 2017 By Kari Leave a Comment

Edmonton Love-1

$2500 Shopping Spree: Join me at Kingsway Mall tomorrow (Saturday, November 4) at noon. I’ll be hosting a fashion show, and we’ll be giving away a $2500 Shopping Spree! The first 250 people in line will receive a GC and a chance to win the big $2500 prize! Please come say hi while you’re there!

Kingsway’s New Boutiques: Kingsway Mall has welcomed Elle’s Closet Boutique. This local shop out of Athabasca is hosting a (sold-out) grand opening party Saturday night in their new space. Kingsway has also welcomed back The Makers Keep boutique. They’re having a grand re-opening party tomorrow night from 7-10 pm. RSVP here.

Hot Diggity Dog: A new hot dog joint is now open in the Mercer Building on 104th. Mayday Dogs is licensed, there are vegetarian options, and they also serve tots (like tater tots on steroids) and milkshakes. Sounds pretty yummy! Check them out here.

Meal Delivery: Thinking of trying meal delivery? Check out HelloFresh for delicious recipes and all the ingredients delivered right to your door. Use my promo code ‘Kari40’ for 40% off your first order at HelloFresh.ca!

Sip for the Stollery: A fundraising/networking/wine/appie evening goes next Wednesday, November 8 at the gorgeous RSVP Design Studios (4552 99th Street). Your entire $30 ticket price to ‘Sip for the Stollery goes to the Stollery Children’s Hospital Foundation. Get your tickets here. 

Adventure to the Capital: Ryan and I had a fabulous time in Ottawa last weekend! Watch for my trip recap soon, including the best places to snap a great Instagram photo while you’re there!

Restaurants Praise: Three Edmonton restaurants made EnRoute Magazine’s top 10 list of Canada’s Best New Restaurants 2017. Congrats to Clementine, Cafe Linnea, and Alder Room!

Luxury Holiday Pop-Up:  Jacek Chocolate, So Pretty Cara Cotter, and Pura Botanicals have teamed up for this holiday pop-up at Manulife place. It starts November 8 and runs until December 22. I love seeing women in business collaborate this way!

Edmonton Love-5

Best Pumpkin Squares: I’ve tried and tested out a few different recipes for pumpkin squares over the years but I always come back to this one. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

It's been a wild and heavy week, hasn't it? I'm de It's been a wild and heavy week, hasn't it? I'm definitely feeling it. Still processing much I've what I've watched, seen, and heard.

There's a lot to sift through online, but here are a few videos that are definitely worth the time - to bring perspective, some joy, and some love. I've posted some in my stories this week but wanted a permanent place on my feed. The links are all clickable in my bio. 

Watch @marielle.elizabeth's video "Being Healthy Doesn't Make Your Life More Valuable" https://www.instagram.com/p/CNoItr8ANtC/.

Watch @celeighcardinal's new music video which celebrates community, friendship, and all forms of love.

Meet a remarkable family. The family of Rob White - the man who presumed drowned after trying to save a dog in the river last week - spoke on love, kindness and legacy on #RealTalkRJ. I was honestly bawling the whole time (starts at the 1:20 mark): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IG7s3JsUT6Q

I'm also heartbroken to hear about another unnecessary loss. Daunte Wright. To the black community - I'm sorry. I'm so sorry you're having to go through this again. 

Hugs to you, friends. ❤
Happy birthday @ryanjespersen! 🥳🥳 🥳 Alth Happy birthday @ryanjespersen! 🥳🥳 🥳

Although this photo is from a year ago, the setting will be exactly the same for Ry's second pandemic birthday: cocktails 🥂and Crispy Crunch Cake 🎂. It's all you truly need, isn't it? Your family, delicious food, and fabulous cocktails! 😊

I won't get too mushy but I love this guy so much. He LIVES life to the fullest. Always bringing the fun, he cares deeply, and loves unconditionally.❤❤ If you haven't already done so check out his show Real Talk at RyanJespersen.com. 

Oh - and the cake recipe is at KariSkelton.com (link in my bio). Only three ingredients! 🕺🙌

Happy second birthday to our sweet girl! 🥳 In h Happy second birthday to our sweet girl! 🥳 In human years she's 19, and it turns out she's just like me at that age: wild, getting into all sorts of trouble, sleeping most of the day, and boy crazy (ball crazy for her).😅 Swipe for the latest Roe pic.

Do you celebrate your dog's birthday?

Curious- how are you handling planning for summer? Curious- how are you handling planning for summer?🏖 I'm hoping we'll be at a place in this pandemic where we can road trip with friends, but I don't know.🤷‍♀️ 

Are you booking or have you already booked everything just in case and then will cancel if need be? 

Last summer we rented a motorhome and camped in Kananaskis and it was amazing!🏞 If you're still trying to convince your spouse that the family needs a trailer (like I am 😊), check out RVezy.com - an RV rental marketplace where you rent from private owners (kind of like Air BNB). We had a great experience! 🙌🤍
