The actress Catherine St-Laurent, who we saw in the television series District 31 And seem to go have fun on Sunday. The new ambassador for Chanv, a natural Quebec skincare brand, likes to spend her day in a bathrobe, watching a good television series and enjoying a tasty little dish.
Sport to start the day off right
“I train every day from 7 am, it makes me feel good, but on Sundays, I take the opportunity to get up a little later, then I go to b.cycle around 10 am. It’s a studio spinning and Pilates downtown. I love seeing downtown Montreal completely deserted and sleepy on Sunday mornings. There is really no one, you feel another energy, without any noise, in complete calm. It’s really very pleasant to walk there in these conditions. »
Good addresses
“I live in Villeray, next to the Jean-Talon market, and I always do some shopping there on Sundays. My Sunday starts on Saturday, because Conserva, my favorite delicatessen, is closed on Sunday! There are so many good things! Everything looks good, it has the best fresh pasta in town, good cheese, meats, everything is of excellent quality. I go there in improvisation mode and I leave with a basket full of fresh seasonal products. Everything is homemade, there are preserves, sauces, pickled vegetables, meat pies. There is a kitchen on site so as soon as you enter, you are tempted by everything because it smells good! I also go to Bar Mamie for the large selection of natural wines and the place, which I really like. As for books, there is a small bookstore near my home, La maison des Feuilles, a real little neighborhood bookstore to discover. »
Prepare a meal
“I like to prepare a really good meal on Sunday evening. I love to cook, I’m going to start trying new, more elaborate recipes, I have more time. I’m going to prepare a dish that will simmer for a long time in winter, I cook according to the seasons, and in summer, it will be lighter, grilled fish and BBQ. At the same time, I listen to Radio-Canada radio, a bit all day, it’s background noise, it gives an atmosphere! I’m not very “brunch”. There are too many people to go to brunch, so it will be the week with friends. »
bathrobe day
“I remember, when I was little, I had to get up early, because I had to go skiing, and I hated that! So I don’t ski at all anymore and above all I don’t want any obligation! There is a guiltlessness in doing nothing that is associated with Sunday. There is something soothing, we put ourselves in a state of mind where we are relaxed, it encourages reflection. On Saturday evening, very often, I go out with friends, so Sunday will be a day cocooning, at home, I will take care of myself, and I will spend my day in a bathrobe, learning texts and pampering myself. I pay attention to my skin, to my hair, I make an image job so I take care of my appearance. I will put oil on the body and moisturize my skin well. »
TV night
“On Sundays, I do whatever makes me happy! Relax, eat and consume an interesting cultural object. It’s the HBO theme night! A new HBO series is the reward for Sunday night, whether The Last of Us Or Succession, I devour these series! Otherwise, it will be a movie or another good television series from here and we will eat in front of the television, a real treat! »
