Hi there, I’m Lorita. Welcome to my blog! Ting and Things is a lifestyle blog about fun, travel, and all sorts of pretty things.

I started out as a graphic designer and is now a digital content creator and marketer. I'm a self-taught baker who used to sell cakes as a side hustle. I am THAT girl who enjoys taking pictures of her food (okay, I admit I take pictures of everything) and sharing them on the blog and IG. It's like keeping a visual journal. When I'm not in front of my computer, you'll find me lying on my couch with a bag of chips or a cup of bubble tea.

I first started this blog in 2007 with the name, Every Little Thing. I wanted to have a creative outlet for me to express myself and have a forum to share my creativity and stories with like-minded people like you. My goal is to inspire you to explore and create things that make life a bit more fun and beautiful.

So why does the blog become Ting and Things? Simple. As my blog continues to grow, a name change is necessary. I want the name to be catchy, memorable and available as a domain. I want it to reflect me and my blog. The word, “Ting” means pretty and is my Chinese name. When you combine Every Little Thing with Ting, we have Ting and Things.

My husband, Will, and I currently live in Toronto, Canada in a little townhouse in the suburbs. Aside from hustling and tackling home improvements, we're raising a little human and learning how to become a parent. Be sure to catch all our parenthood journey here on my blog!


Thanks for visiting!
