I forgot I was supposed to go until yesterday, when my mother-in-law sent me a Facebook message asking what time I wanted to meet, or if I wanted a ride. Of course I wanted a ride. Wait, where were we going? The fashion show was put on by the graduates of Vancouver Community College's Fashion … [Read more...]
Abundance Naturally Bath Time
There is nothing better than nuzzling up to a freshly washed baby - right? Now that LJ is almost three months he is really starting to express his love for bath time and it's one of my favourite activities to do together. I just love seeing him grin and listening to his squeals and L'il E thinks … [Read more...]
Fall Harvest Cooking with Chef Michael Smith
Hello Fall! The autumn months are always so fresh and crisp. There's nothing like putting on a warm sweater while still feeling the sun on our faces.

From My Closet – September 23rd, 2013
I find blazers to be one of the easiest things to throw on whenever you want to pull your look together fast. Most will work over just about anything, from jeans, to a skirt. Or in this case, a jean skirt. This mini is short, I realise, but it works because it's juxtaposed with the tall boots … [Read more...]
Parental Pride
Parental pride comes in many different forms. Some days I am proud of my boys for actually rolling out of bed and onto the floor, the step-one of getting ready for school, even if there are 23 other steps to get them ready to scoot out the door. Other times, deeper times, like Hud demanding to say … [Read more...]

Yes, there is a festival for garlic, I was told while in line while getting my parking authorized. When I laughed about a festival for garlic, a very … [Read more...]
La Roche Posay, Part Two
I know it sounds nuts, but even though I returned from France two months ago, I still keep thinking and talking about my experience at La Roche Posay. Just the other day, for example, my cousin said she'd heard I went there and wanted to hear all about it. I could have told her about the spectacular … [Read more...]
Toddlerhood International: El Salvador, Day 4
I've now been away for five days, and haven't seen Toddler since I put him to bed six days ago. Spouse and I have been talking via Skype, so we have been in regular contact, but Toddler is a rocket and he only whizzes past the screen occasionally. He has been a blur, chirping "mama, out" and trying … [Read more...]
I Can’t Can
Our garden is overflowing right now. Which is cool, except I am anything but a pioneer. I have carved out the time to make homemade Cream of Fresh Tomato Soup and it's delicious but I have just been tossing it in my deep freeze as I make it because I, for the life of me, am afraid to try … [Read more...]
Don’t Hate Me Because I Don’t Make Lunch
Remember this ad? Don't hate me because I'm beautiful... [youtube id="hz8ul-gmLyA"] It keeps ringing in my ears when I say this. Don't hate me because I don't have to make Will's lunch. I think next to having him, this could be the single greatest thing that's ever happened to me. In … [Read more...]
