Dance Like Nobody’s Watching

March 20, 2013 by Tracey

There's a series of these videos out in the internets... Dance Like Nobody's Watching. I find some of them rather cute and bold and charming, but this one in particular came to me through the usual social media portals, and I really love this one. I think it's because this girl's spirit and dance … [Read more...]

The Littlest Hotdog.

March 12, 2013 by Tracey

One rather nice thing about family-break times, like the one we had just last week, is how I get the chance to really see my children anew. It doesn't matter if we stay home, though I do tend to view them differently when they're back-dropped by a different scene, or within different walls. I too, … [Read more...]

Halloween Foods: Plan B thanks to Sandy

October 29, 2012 by Sonya

So, we're getting ready for Halloween and it looks like this monster of a storm is coming our way. My kids started talking about what to do should we get a complete rain out on the night of Halloween. They decided (yes, they did) to not go out but instead could we have some fun at home … [Read more...]

Summer, You Ain’t So Bad

August 14, 2012 by Amanda

I know I was bemoaning summer in my last post, but before I go on a school supply-buying bender, I thought it worthwhile to think back on the things that made this summer a great one. Really, it's been pretty swell.Raybans and a floppy white hat.Alize. On the rocks.Guacamole.Fresh peaches and … [Read more...]

Birthday parties – yes or no?

June 4, 2012 by ChantelK

Over the past fourteen years I have hosted so many birthday parties that I have lost count.  Each year it became more and more of chore and expensive.  Having them at the home was an option on some occassions but when you have as many children as I do it gets harder to focus on the … [Read more...]

Who’s That Kid…

September 27, 2011 by Tracey

So, the children bullied me into buying them some Oreos the other day. I have nothing against Oreo cookies (I've been known to partake in a dozen at a time a few now and again) but we already had two other types of biscuits in the cupboard, plus ice cream in the freezer, we had gift-with-purchase … [Read more...]

Three-thirty P.M.

April 12, 2011 by Tracey

I don't have my kids enrolled in any after-school programmes. My seven-year-old was taking karate (and kicking butt at it) last year, but by the summer, he "wanted a break" from his four-to-five-hours-per-week classes, and just wanted to do summer camp stuff. We quickly realised in September how … [Read more...]

Coping with the January Blahs

January 17, 2011 by amreen

I've been suffering from a major case of the January doldrums.  It's cold, mornings are dark, and I've been finding it hard to motivate myself for even the most menial of tasks.  But, in the past few days, I've perked up and found ways to cope on these dullest of winter days. Firstly, … [Read more...]
