How Parenting Is Like an Episode of Mad Men

July 6, 2016 by Alison Tedford Leave a Comment

I've been Netflix bingeing and my most recent favourite series sadly came to an abrupt end. I wasn't emotionally prepared for it and I found I was pretty devastated.

How Parenting Is Just Like An Episode Of Scrubs

June 29, 2016 by Alison Tedford Leave a Comment

I am a sucker for hospital shows on TV, but I tend to fall over when I'm in one for real. I'm queasy, but I had to overcome that when I became a parent and found myself there more often with a sick kid. While those real life experiences weren't funny, the humorous exploits of the cast of Scrubs … [Read more...]

I fell in love on my thirteenth wedding anniversary, and not with my husband. The wonderful man I married (whom I’ve already been in love with for well over a decade), knew that I had been longing to visit New York City.

My Mad Fat Diary By Rae Earl

June 13, 2016 by Christine Stock 6 Comments

I can honestly say, ladies, that I don’t know of any woman who is completely happy with her body. As sad as it is, we focus on what we deem to be flaws and rarely appreciate the parts that are perfectly acceptable. Take my hands, for example. They are perfectly acceptable, even attractive hands with … [Read more...]

June 9, 2016 by Sonya Leave a Comment

I grew up in the city where along side normal teen issues we also had a set of different opportunities and experiences from my friends who lived elsewhere. Clubbing was something we all did.

Lilac Girls By Martha Hall Kelly

May 30, 2016 by Christine Stock 59 Comments

Some kids get in trouble for refusing to do chores, ditching school, or getting bad grades. I wasn’t one of those kids. I used to get in trouble for reading. I should probably clarify that is wasn’t the actual reading that got me in trouble, it was the fact that I was doing it, under my covers … [Read more...]

What Advice Did Drake’s Mom Give Him?

May 4, 2016 by Sonya Leave a Comment

Last Friday Drake's latest album VIEWS was released and hit the charts running. I was one of those quick to download the album as soon it was released.
