We recently caught up with Mel in Toronto's Music Garden with her Gloomy Bear, amazing dress & mini-hat and picnic basket that we found at the last minute on the street (full of really great colourful plates, cups & cutlery).

Next thing I knew she was teetering on a laundry hamper on a stepping stool. Awesome....
