Couch To 5K

April 9, 2014 by Amanda 4 Comments

  I was a fat kid. It sucked. School track meets were traumatic, gym class was a nightmare, and it was emotionally trying to wade through the awkward waters of adolescence in a thick, wobbly frame. Being overweight made it hard to enjoy exercise, so I never really pushed myself … [Read more...]

I Rock The Charcuterie With Carnivore Club

April 3, 2014 by Sonya Leave a Comment

I can rock the charcuturie board. Just ask any of our dinner guests. Heck, I'll even throw together one on the weekends for us to just enjoy as our family lunch.

Things That Suck: Adult Acne

April 2, 2014 by Amanda Leave a Comment

When I turned 31 I got hit by a case of adult-onset acne that left me feeling defeated, homely and in pain.

Every morning I would wake … [Read more...]

Designer Labels Within Reach

April 1, 2014 by Sonya Leave a Comment

It's difficult to look at all the fashion magazines sometimes. I get some serious cases of the "wants" when I see some of my favourite designers. But like many of you, I have to live within a budget.  I've also been converting my thinking about how I shop the past few years. Buy less and buy … [Read more...]

UrbanKitchen: Quick Mussels and Beer!

March 27, 2014 by Sonya Leave a Comment

There are so many types of food that go well with beer, don't you think?  I swear Hubby thinks that even chocolate goes well with a good beer. I won't argue with that! But beer is definitely a refreshing compliment to cuisine that is full of flavour and spices! Aside from drinking beer straight … [Read more...]
