With a marketing line like "your door to more", the 2014 Nissan Versa Note is a small car with a rather big claim to live up to. I'll admit it - I was a tiny bit skeptical when I picked up this car. After all, its sticker price is below $20,000 ($18,680 for the model I drove) and that usually … [Read more...]
The Oasis at Sunset Beach, Montego Bay, Jamaica
I'm just going to cut right to the chase here - I loved this place. The Oasis at Sunset Beach in Montego Bay is now one of my favourite spots. It is not the most luxurious or the biggest or grandest but it has everything a family could want from an all inclusive. Why did I love it so much? Here's my … [Read more...]
Review: Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and Gear
Technology is amazing, isn't it? I love telling my teenager about owning my first "cellphone." It was 14 years ago...just before he was born. I felt it was a necessity for emergency purposes. I could call my parents or my hubby without having to find a phone booth. "You could only call from it? … [Read more...]
Winter Wondering
I love books about winter, even if I'm not a fan of the season itself. They are always full of playful fun, cool colours, and the beauty of snowflakes and animals. These two lovely books relate to winter, one about migration, and one a math book that uses nature to teach. Sizing Up Winter, by … [Read more...]
Au Revoir, La Roche Posay!
It was just about six months ago that I first found out that I would be travelling to France to learn more about La Roche Posay and the amazing work they're doing to help people suffering from eczema, psoriasis, and other painful, uncomfortable, and often embarrassing skin disorders. Six months ago, … [Read more...]
The Holiday Experience in New York City with Kids!
A visit to New York City during the holiday season was on my "bucket list" for years. I'm a city girl after all and I've lost count of how many times I've been for vacation or work but never during this magical time of year. We brought the kids for the first time. Our older one is on the verge of … [Read more...]
APPS OF THE WEEK: Shaw Go YTV and Shaw Go Treehouse!
Oh bless the holiday season! I'm counting down the hours to when we can kick it into high gear. It's going to be a busy one with family and friends coming over. I'm ready (sort of) so BRING IT ON! Toss in a few meetings and a quick jaunt to the Big Apple and yes, my head is spinning out of control. … [Read more...]
RESTO REVIEW: Destingo Modern Italian Kitchen
It's been a busy few weeks here in the city with all the get togethers. I swear my diet will start after the holidays! My good friend Katya and I have had our social calendars mash up a few times. But Katya and I love to linger when we are out and we try to find time to rest our heels in between … [Read more...]
Review: Turbo FAST
Who better than a kid to tell you what they really think? So it was with this idea in mind that I enlisted my 10 year-old as a guest critic for an upcoming kids show. I was sent a few episodes of a new series for kids called Turbo FAST to get a sneak peek. It's an original Netflix series based … [Read more...]
Night at the Museum: When Everything Comes to Life
We were watching the film Night at the Museum with the kids the other night. Ben Stiller mentioned that everything comes to life once the night falls...and then we experienced it. It’s nighttime and the doors are closed to the public. Only sleepover guests have full access to the Royal Ontario … [Read more...]
