We were invited up to the Harlequin offices in Toronto to speak to the DTC group and for a brief respite at Brenda and Jim Chin's new cottage a couple hours NW of Toronto. We always have a great time with Harlequin and Brenda, but this visit outdid all the others combined. Here's a big wave to all the wonderful people we met and talked to and heartfelt thanks to Brenda Chin, Birgit Davis-Todd, Marsha Zinberg, Eleanor Elliot and the entire DTC group for, well, everything, but mostly for making us feel so welcome. We very much look forward to when our paths will cross again.

 P1010053.jpg Striking a pose! Eddie, moi, Birgit, Brenda, Eleanor Elliot, and Marleah Stout and Katherine Orr of pr. (marvelous Maureen Stead ducked the camera, darn it, as did Jayne Jacek of eHarlequin.com!). |
 P1010054.jpg Here Tony trades places with Eddie. |
 P1010055.jpg Lovelies from business affairs Hanna Lenskis and Laura Sandilands (not pictured is Lynn from legal, but that doesn't make her any less memorable!). |
 P1010056.jpg A stop to get a hug from super Shelley Cinnamon was a must! (Not pictured is Kristina DeDuleba who was snowed under with work.) |
 P1010057.jpg Mira Editorial Director Diane Moggy, Shelley and Don Lucey. |
 P1010058.jpg A brief chat with Blaze marketing rep Lyla Korhani and Everil Barnett from retail marketing. |
 P1010059.jpg Kathy Lodge never fails to inspire a laugh. |
 P1010060.jpg Executive Editor Marsha Zinberg always looks top shelf, no matter how many meetings she's attended! |
 P1010061.jpg You can always count on Editorial Director Randall Toye to spark a thought-provoking convo. |
 P1010062.jpg The office was tuned into the Euro2004 soccer tourney between the UK and Portugal. |
 P1010063.jpg Tas! Here we schmooze with fellow Greek compatriot Natassa along with Mike from the art department (we missed Amy! Ah, next time). |
 P1010064.jpg We enjoyed a lovely dinner at Herb's with Birgit and Brenda. I highly recommend the house Shiraz and the pork tenderloin! |
 P1010065.jpg Nana! Definitely pretty in pink. |
 P1010067.jpg Ah, yes. A photo album wouldn't be complete without a "oh just you wait, you are sooo going to pay for this," look from Brenda. LOL |
 P1010070.jpg Dinner at The Mandarin, a must stop for us every time we visit Toronto (it's nearly as popular as Tim Horton's!), with Brenda and her dh Jim. Pic a little blurry? Probably because we were feeling a bit blurry ourselves after all that food! |
