Ever since White Cabana began, I have watched my dad’s interest in white grow (read this). He recently sent over some photos he took of churches and buildings on his most recent trip to New York City.

It seems as though my dad has become inspired by white. Great news, right?
If you’ve been following me on Twitter then you already know that I was in New Orleans last week. I’m looking forward to sharing some of my photos with you over the next little while. Today it’s all about some of the food and flowers that I came across in this über-lively city.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Chicago for the first time. Oh, wow! What an absolutely amazing city! If you like art, architecture, food and fashion (or any combination of these things), then a visit to Chicago is a must! Chicago also offers plenty of comedic and musical entertainment. Although my five-day stay was work-related, I did manage to play tourist in between work obligations.
Although Chicago is often referred to as the windy city, I much prefer its other name, the white city. There are plenty of white buildings, doors and art around the city. You can imagine how happy I was to be surrounded by all of this white!
One of the highlights on this trip was the 75-minute architecture tour boat some of us took over a lunch break. We listened to the history of many (if not all!) buildings on either side of the river. Another amazing experience was eating tiramisu (yum) on the 96th floor of the John Hancock tower. The view from here was absolutely incredible (and just a tad scary).

This past weekend I had the pleasure of visiting my friend and White Cabana creator, Jordana, in London, Ont.
It’s easy to see why Jordana has made London her home over the past few years- there is an abundance of white here!
Jordana was very encouraging as I practiced seeing white everywhere.
Here are some of my favourite white moments from my white weekend with Jordana:
Branches of raw cotton at London’s charming Market
Jordana checking out beautiful water at the Market
White detailing on the packaging of Dry Soda water
A white portable ethanol fireplace, $758
Gorgeous white leather office chair, $302 on sale
Caffé latté art at Coffee Culture
Pouffy bridal dress in store window for London’s princesses
More bridal dresses with white poufs!
Even the cars are painted white and topped with fresh snow in London!
White and classic black made-by-Jordana art
at Jordana’s lovely home
Delicious sushi with white rice and creamy white napkin
Going for a (wh)nite on the town!
Jordana knows white: white t-shirt, plate, table, etc.
at the local diner for brunch
Me, I see white but I’m not fully white – yet!-. Wearing bright pink
but I did order a white wrap with sour cream for brunch!
A white snowman and snowcat greeted me home
in Toronto upon my return
Thank you so much Jordana for a fantastic weekend! I love being on this white adventure with you!
