Quality sleep remains the ever elusive animal. Even with a remarkably comfortable new bed and a better diet and occasional over the counter drugs, I find myself lying awake in the middle of the night. I can feel the anxiety escalate as I stare at the digital clock, its amber digits mocking me as … [Read more...]
Urban Kid Closet – April 9th, 2013
While looking for tights for this girl several weeks back, I popped into a store I don't normally frequent, desperate in my search. It's a based-in-Quebec chain called Souris Mini (Mini Mouse). I confess that I find their stuff a little too... Idunnowhat... for my kids. I find many of the patterns … [Read more...]

Would you? Could you?

Presto Pesto
Doughnuts. They appear on almost every single list of top 10 foods to avoid. Yet I just can't seem to resist their white flour, sugary, deep-fried fatty goodness. Doughnuts are the reason I don't really mind driving my son to his 7am practices. You see, there's this little hole-in-the-wall … [Read more...]
Longer, Fuller, Stronger…we’re talking lashes!
