WOWing Them At The BBQ

July 12, 2013 by Sonya 1 Comment

It's mid-July and summer BBQs are a plenty. But are you like me? Are you kinda getting a little tired of the iron steak on the BBQ with the same old, same old spices? Or throwing on burgers? Threading a few kebabs? Brush the olive oil on the veggies? Sides of potato salad and cole slaw? White Burger … [Read more...]

Philosophy: It’s About Time

July 11, 2013 by Sonya 3 Comments

How much time do you spend each day dealing with skin care? I had bad skin as a teenager and it continued into adulthood. It took me a while to understand how to take care of my skin. Now in my mid-40s I've noticed significant change in how my skin looks and feels. All that stuff you read in … [Read more...]

Glamping, Camping and a Contest!

July 11, 2013 by Sonya 313 Comments

What did you say? Camping? I had no interest AT ALL until a friend of mine said "you're so fricken' high maintenance, but I bet you would LOVE  Glamping." Hmmm....It's a possibility. I must admit that I've been thinking about it. I just need to find the time and figure out where to do this (if … [Read more...]

Family Travel: Food Stresses

July 8, 2013 by Sonya Leave a Comment

We're thankful that our kids enjoy food as much as we do. I call them foodie kids as they are some of the most daring eaters for their age groups. Seriously. They will take fresh octopus salad over a chicken nuggets any day. But I remember when they were really young. We have always travelled and I … [Read more...]

Wine Wednesday

July 5, 2013 by Sonya 1 Comment

It was a hot summer night with that kind of humidity that makes you feel like you're in Jamaica. That kind of weather that gives everyone a glow. But it makes everyone happy. We don't get summer for too long so we take what we can get. I entered the hotel lobby  and  spotted a familiar face. I give … [Read more...]

Artist Spotlight: Jon Shaw

July 4, 2013 by Sonya 1 Comment

I often paint and draw, it's my "outlet" and I get my creative fuel from speaking with other artists. It's like going for counselling as art is so personal. Each work of art I produce is almost like giving birth (I said almost). I nurture and spend time with my art taking a few years to complete. … [Read more...]

Nailing Easy Summer Style

July 3, 2013 by Sonya Leave a Comment

Summer is so easy. We are on the go with pool parties and BBQ get-togethers all season long and love it. As Canadians we gotta embrace the short summer months, right? And we're pretty chill about it. I love the long hot summer weekends of relaxing and just chatting away with nice icy cold bevvy in … [Read more...]
