I have written a few blogs about how I treat Labour Day like it’s New Year's Day. Ya know, back from vacation, back to school and back to reality. It’s a great time to exercise more and eat and drink less. Well, let’s just say I had the best of intentions but I’m easily swayed. Have a look at this … [Read more...]
Living with Eczema: Liam’s Story
For the past few months, I've been telling you all about my experience with the thermal water and products of La Roche-Posay. But now I think it's time you heard from someone else. I'd like to introduce you to Colette. In July, she travelled with her husband, her daughter, and her son, Liam, to La … [Read more...]
The Leaves, You Guys.
Maybe it's because my current state could only be described as "deliriously over-tired," but this afternoon when I was walking home I just kind of noticed it's now fall. The leaves, you guys. The leaves! They struck me, bright and every colour, as if vaguely poetic in a way that is sentimental but … [Read more...]
About Harissa Spice
I had first tried the Harissa spice this past spring at an event at the President's Choice test kitchen and I couldn't get my mind off it. Our family, yes even the kids, love spicy foods. Thank goodness. I discovered this delicious blend and waited anxiously for it to arrive at my local grocers. … [Read more...]
What’s Your Dream?
Have you ever taken one of those computer-generated career aptitude tests? I took one in the ninth grade and it said I was best suited to a career as a street performer. I tried to picture my parents proudly telling their friends about my fabulous life as a mime and couldn't muster an image I … [Read more...]
How to Take Your Best “SELFIE”
So we've got Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and whatever to tell our friends (or the world) what we're up to. When I have a bit of time I love to "check in" and see what my friends are up to. I love their photos while on vacation, with their kids, and at parties. I love all the food shots and … [Read more...]
From My Closet – October 16th, 2013
So, I had this function to attend Saturday night, and I'd been fretting about what to wear for weeks before it's arrival, partly because I'm trying not to shop since we're buying BRICKS just now, but also because I kept running into this lady-friend of mine (normally I never do, but lately I see her … [Read more...]
One Man’s Trash is Another Man’s Fire Pit
I have been accused (and justifiably so) of being cheap, or as I like to say... frugal. I can’t help it, I hate spending money unless I have to. I don't even know where it comes from, we never lived an extravagant life but we didn't pinch pennies either. My parents spending habits were right down … [Read more...]
Martha Stewart is Coming to the DELICIOUS Food Show!
I am thankful for the turkey hangover I have this morning. After two days of turkey with all the trimmings that has left me in a food coma and I'm going to just re-group for a couple days and relish on all the great fun we've had over this past weekend. I know that the festive holiday entertaining … [Read more...]
Hacking Thanksgiving
Life hacking: any productivity trick, shortcut, skill, or novelty method to increase productivity and efficiency; in other words, anything that solves an everyday problem in a clever or non-obvious way. Hey you out there! That's right, I'm talking to you: the one whose knee-deep into her … [Read more...]
