August is here. You know what that means! I won't even dare type it...
What I will dare type though, is my bucket list for the lovely month of August. Hopefully it will inspire you to take advantage of the lovely weather and enjoy Toronto to the max!
Pig out at "A Taste of the Danforth" (August 6-8 on Danforth from Broadview to Jones)
This annual Greek festival is know for its amazingly delicious food, but this year they are adding at little somethin' somethin'. I am really looking forward to Dancing on the streets at 4pm, August 7. Click here for details.
Watch a Waitress at The Harbourfront Centre (Aug. 4, 11 on the Sirus Stage @ 9pm)
Waitress (playing August 4th) is an endearing story about a girl who escapes her reality by baking cakes and naming them after a life event. Bonus: a happy ending.
Attend the Dusk Dances (Various locations)
Year after year I hear great things about this showcase and this year I am making a point of going. Past performances have included Afro-Brazilian dance, Flamenco and Contemporary dance. If you are into seeing new things (which, you are) then come on out (which you will!) For complete schedule click here.
Enjoy Romeo and Juliet at High Park ( Through Sept. 5, Tuesday -Sunday @ 8pm)
As suggested by the event's website, you can bring a picnic and enjoy a quality theatre production with quality friends. This is not only a timeless summer time tradition but also a must-see classic.
If you have any other suggestions, you know what to do. Leave a comment!

Taste of the Danforth, Rogers Cup @ the Rexall Centre;). Romeo & Juliet.
So many great things happen in and around the city in the summer! There's a great Stratford festival happening at the end of the month as well and don't forget about the Beer Festival this weekend! Cheers
Don't you just love Toronto in the summer?
