Think Pink

October 11, 2008 by Jennifer

Some trends are good (think boomerang lunches at our kids' schools). Some trends are pure evil (think leggings on anyone older than six). My favourite type of trend is one that benefits the consumer and also benefits a good cause. This is a great month for such trends. It's National Breast Cancer … [Read more...]

My Infinite Playlists

October 6, 2008 by Jennifer

With the new release of Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (a movie I'm dying to see), I started thinking about the playlists of my life. Growing up, we all made mixed tapes for one another, and a mixed tape from a boy was serious business. I can remember analyzing the song choices in an attempt to … [Read more...]

BabyFacebook

September 28, 2008 by Jennifer

Chances are you're either a Facebook member, or know someone who is. The online social network considers Canada one of its most plugged-in countries, with well over 7 million Canuck "friends" these days (I wonder how many make up the 2.5 million users to date who have joined the 1,000,000 Against … [Read more...]

My Virtual Running Partner

September 23, 2008 by Jennifer

When I got back into running just over a year ago and decided to tackle a 10k training program, I did it with a friend. Jen got injured before our big race, but we kept one another motivated during that clinic. A few months later, my friend Heather convinced me to train for a half-marathon with her. … [Read more...]

For Ladies Who Lunch…

September 14, 2008 by Jennifer

I wrote a couple of weeks ago about some new trends in lunch bags for the kids, but while researching I found a lot of bags more suited to moms. If you need to pack a lunch, you might as well do it in something other than an old liquor store bag a plastic grocery bag . There are enough choices out … [Read more...]

Double Duty

September 9, 2008 by Jennifer

Well,one week into the school year, and if there's one thing I've figured out it's that I've got to simplify my morning routine. I'm still waking and getting out the door at the same time, but I've got a few more things to accomplish each morning. They include (but are not limited to) getting all … [Read more...]

Lovely to See You

September 2, 2008 by Jennifer

"Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses." So goes the old saying, but the sexy librarian look does have its fans, and so too do flasses. Don't know flasses? According to the urban dictionary, the definition of flasses is as follows: Glasses that do not contain prescribed lenses, … [Read more...]

Let’s Do Lunch

August 28, 2008 by Jennifer

You've got the back-to-school haircuts taken care of, the first day of school outfits are laid out, and now you've got a couple of days left to plan for the dreaded packed lunch. Between nut allergies banning peanuts from schools, e-coli conerns having us think twice about the fruit we're eating, … [Read more...]

Water, water everywhere

August 25, 2008 by Jennifer

We all know water's good for us, but there are so many trendy hot issues related to water... what's in it? what happens to the bottles? how does it taste? I grew up drinking good old-fashioned tap water. At the cottage we drank "town water" because you didn't want to drink what came out … [Read more...]

Get a Clue

August 20, 2008 by Jennifer

I'm all for new board games. My family has spent hours this summer playing Apples to Apples, including one memorable game with my sister playing from 300 kilometres away over the phone. But when it comes to the classics, I'm a board game purist. Leave the Canadian version of Monopoly on the shelf; … [Read more...]
