52 h. ago One of Toronto's best outdoor markets is back for the season this week

One of Toronto's liveliest outdoor vendor markets is finally opening up for the season this week.Spring has arrived in Toronto and summer's right around the corner, which can only mean one thing: the city's residents are hungry for ways to spend some much-needed time under the sun.Now, as someone who derives considerable joy from the mere act of purchasing a new trinket or piece of clothing, I may be biased, but if you ask me, outdoor markets are among the best ways to do that.Whether it's a huge flower market featuring blooms by local growers or a tried-and-true farmers' market, gathering your crew to meander stalls, meet local and small business owners and, most importantly, spend time outdoors after being caged in all winter, just screams summer. It's the best.For me, though, a vendor market is the creme de la creme, because, not only can you frequently find a tasty treat or two, but you can walk away with anything from a new candle to a crystal ...

This Mother's Day, Amanda Katz is inviting the city's motherless masses to unite. The founder of Motherless Day, she's created a pity party for those navigating Mother's Day through the veil of loss."I lost my mom to mental health in 2017, back when I was 21," explains Katz. "As with any loss, the tough days come and go. … But one thing that anyone without a mom feels is that Mother's Day sucks."Those flower bouquets and gifts-for-mom ideas that are in every window, that typically are met with such a wave of joy, instead for us they're a reminder of what and who is missing."In 2023, "after spending six years navigating that day along with my sister," Katz decided to flip the Mother's Day script. "I figured, why not reframe the day? Why not create the chance and the space to celebrate and commemorate the moms who would have still wanted us to celebrate, surrounded by those people who get it?&quo...
