I’m not sure why I’m surprised, but I am thoroughly gob-smacked by the generosity and goodness of my fellow Torontonians. I asked a week or so ago if anyone might want to send along a love letter to this city we live and man alive, people went above and beyond. Such beautiful, thoughtful, crafted love letters.

They’ll be going up in a digital exhibition in The PATH, a collaboration with Art In Transit for the month of February. That certainly is one way to beat these winter blues.

A few other get-through-winter-tricks:

*The Color/Colour project

* Kathryn Kuitenbrouwer’s All the Broken Things (with bunting talk from Kerry Clare, because we all know everything’s better with bunting!)

* Being inspired to pull out the X-acto by this lovely creation

Oh, and remembering that I started the new year here. Sigh…
