My oldest son started JK this year so I have to send him to school with snacks. His school has a litterless lunch policy and sends back any packaging waste that was sent along in his lunch box. I have to admit that this is all new territory for me. While I do my best to […]
I don’t know about you but I try to keep a healthy lifestyle for myself and my family. It’s not always easy and temptations abound. With three active and busy kids, it’s hard to always find the time to eat well and exercise, but I do try. I’m even more motivated now postpartum with my […]
As a parent, it’s my duty to provide my kids with the best nutrition possible. At least while they’re still young and I’m able to make those decisions for them. I buy omega 3 eggs, lots of fruits, give them the vegetables they like (peas, sweet potatoes, avocado and cucumbers) and feed them fish once […]
Mothers Day is this Sunday, May 11th. If you don’t have plans and you are looking for some brunch ideas or inspiration, I have two easy recipes to share along with some colourful, durable outdoor (weather permitting) servewear from President Choice.

They are glowing the second they are pregnant, always cheerful and full of energy. I on the other hand, am NOT one of those women. Pregnancy just doesn’t suit […]
Typically when I have a guest post, I write a little blurb at the top, but my next guest writer already did that for me. That’s just how amazing she is. A lawyer by day, a chef and blogger at night, and mommy 24/7, Sarah amazes me. She also takes awesome pictures which makes me […]
I was recently invited to attend a tasting of Yogurty’s new flavours, see the first Yogurty’s (food) truck & learn about the new event catering program. I brought my two sons along because truly, kids know best when it comes to taste testing. The first new frozen yogurt flavour that was introduced this month is the […]
If you’re anything like me, you love entertaining. Ever since we bought our house almost seven years ago we’ve found many excuse to have people over. House warming party, birthday parties, holidays, engagement parties, BBQs on warm summer days, mommy-group play dates, meet the baby, hosting guests from out-of-town, girls night in, clothes swap, super bowl […]
