How To Stay Safe Near The Water This Summer

July 7, 2014 by Sonya 2 Comments

About a week ago a friend of mine had posted a question on her Facebook page. She was asking something about at what age is it okay to allow your kid to swim without supervision.  My gut response was "if you have to ask then that should be your answer." Most of her friends reacted strongly to … [Read more...]

It’s Like Water, But Better. It’s Sink-cola.

July 29, 2013 by Cayla Leave a Comment

As a kid, when I asked my parents what we had to drink with dinner, more often than not, they replied with, "Sink-cola." Get it? Sink-cola.  In other words, water. At the time, I was more than annoyed by this response, but in retrospect it was the right thing to do. To this day, I still mainly … [Read more...]

In fact, more than 3000 schools and thousands of … [Read more...]

Do-It-Yourself: Summer Fun

June 28, 2013 by Ryan 1 Comment

Around my house when it comes to figuring things out or putting things together my wife is the champ. I swear she can do anything when it comes to that kind of stuff. If she had to, she could build the Taj Mahal with nothing but a glass of wine and an Allen key. She’s very handy; it’s why I keep her … [Read more...]

Taking the plunge at the new Body Blitz Spa!

November 26, 2012 by Sonya

I see the signs. Just passed the design district on King East in an industrial looking complex. The streetcar driver immediately sees my eyes light up and says "looks like someone is going to have a nice afternoon!" as he nods with smile my way.

Mother Nature Can Kiss My…

August 24, 2010 by shawnd

For about 3 months, my wife and I had been looking forward to this past weekend.  We were taking Pea to a friend's cottage just outside of Ottawa for the first time, and we were eager to see how Pea would react to a lake front environment and the potential for water games and other outdoor … [Read more...]
