Let’s Play Everyone!
Posted on 22. Jun, 2010 by rossana in Chili, News
Life is always too serious and we need to let our inner child out! But why does playing mean smoking, drinking and that other bad stuff? What about playing!?
The art of drawing, cooking, creating, creative writing!
We don’t need to be great spellers or writers …BUT we can play with words! This is a game I’m initiating! It’s on my “Epicurean Mistress” Facebook page, my profile and I will post it on the other 3 pages I have. It gives you a chance to think of a different answer all the time! So add this to your wall and tell people what you are! Here we go!
Tell me what you think you are..ingredient-wise!
Ex: I’m a chili: hot, spicy, full of heat, I race your heart and your metabolism. I’m a great fix to anything bland and taking too much of me will burn you…LOL.
So What are you?

A Typical Day
Posted on 19. Feb, 2010 by jason in News
There is no typical day for Roxie De Angelis.
I live a life that many people envy, I enjoy a freedom that many are jealous of (it’s just a choice, anyone can have it.)
When people ask me what’s new, I always have so many interesting tales to tell them, they often feel overwhelmed and inadequate.
I hang around web-designers, fashion designers, artists, photographers, models, and some of Toronto’s finest and most beautiful souls.
I have this event going on or that event. I have so many events I have to turn down events. I wake up when I want, setup meetings with amazing people when I want, and go to sleep when I want. I don’t need an alarm, I don’t have a boss harping over me, and people love being around me and helping my cause.
I’m passionate about what I do, I help people eat better, be healthier, and enjoy luxurious lives. I provide them with a warm, inviting environment to spend time in. Beautiful, no?
When you ask other people what they do, they might say a sentence or two: “I’m in sales.” or “I’m a writer.” — and you can often hear in certain people’s voices and delivery that they are not satisfied with their lives.
I feel like a hip, young, wellness-loving, epicurean vixen, and I love changing the world in powerful ways.
