Happy Birthday Erika!


April 19th was my very best friend Erika's birthday. While I enjoy gift giving as much as the next person, our other best friend Shauna and I decided we would make some memories with her instead. So we set out to make Erika's 25th birthday her best birthday yet (spoiler alert: we killed it).

On Saturday Erika, Emma and I packed ourselves in my car and headed to Toronto to meet Shauna. The first thing we did when we walked through Shauna's door was take two shots each of course. How else do you start a birthday off at 1pm?

Then we grabbed an uber down to Gusto 101.

The food at Gusto 101 was amazing but it was their sangria that really hit the spot. The atmosphere was another plus. We ended up sitting on the rooftop patio and it was the perfect place to enjoy on of the first warm days of the year.

Of course I had to stop and take a picture with this amazing mural:

We seemed to share the same attitude and style, as you can see.

After lunch as stop two: Sweet Jesus. We may have waited in line for over an hour while the couple in front of us attempted to make a baby in broad daylight but let me tell you, it was worth it.

After we stuffed out stomachs full of as much ice cream as we could we headed over the Her Majesty's Pleasure for some pampering, and some more drinks of course.

Let me begin by saying, this place has a bar. A nail salon with a bar? Why is this the first time I'm seeing something like this?! The drinks were delicious, the place was beautiful and the staff was so fun!

Once our pampering was done we were ready to go home and get ready for a 90s dance party at The Gladstone Hotel.  We danced to The Backstreet Boys, The Spice Girls and every 90s gem you could think of.

It was a day and a night to remember, which is ironic because we spent most of it drinking! 

Three cheers to best friends!
