Watch: Girls, Season 2

Hurrah! Girls, written by and starring Lena Dunham, about a motley crew of twentysomethings discovering themselves and New York City, is back. We can't wait for Hannah's idiocies, Jessa's self-centred antics, Marnie's judgey looks and Shoshanna's quest to have sex. (And to find out if Adam can really be Mr. Nice Guy.) Jan. 13, HBO.com. Want an older brand of drama? The new Dallas also returns this month.

Toast: Robert Burns

Celebrate everyone's favourite Scottish poet on January 25 at a Robbie Burns supper, happening across the nation. Get your fill of bagpipes, dancing, haggis, neeps and tatties—and wash it down with a glass of scotch!

Savour: Seasonal flavour

From Vancouver to Toronto, Canadian cities are coming alive with fresh prix fixe menus at top restos. Dessert? Yes, please! Winterlicious, Toronto, Jan. 25 to Feb. 7. FeastVan, Vancouver, Jan. 18 to Feb. 3.
