I don’t mean to frighten you, but today we are exactly 5 weeks away from Christmas. Do you have your shopping done? I certainly don’t! But it’s about time to start! I always enjoy looking at the holiday gift guides that bloggers put together, but the ones I really like are the gift guides that […]
It’s Easy To Forget
It’s easy to forget that some illness and disease can’t be seen by the naked eye. I’m not even talking about mental illness, which is certainly invisible to the naked eye and is often brushed off by those who don’t understand. I’m talking about physical issues that don’t show on the surface, and therefore are […]
Lip Balm Addict
As a kid/teen I was obsessed with Lip Smackers lip balm. I had an impressive collection (and a collectable tin to keep them all in). Every day I was able to choose a different flavour/scent which went right into my pocket to keep me company for the day. Fast forward quite a few years and […]
Tara Stiles: make your own rules diet {a review}
I’ve been a fan of Tara Stiles and her approach to yoga for years. It was her that really got me interested in practising yoga and later on becoming an instructor. I wrote about it here w-a-y back but sadly it was one of the posts lost when my site was hacked a few years […]
Keeping It In Perspective
Today is Remembrance Day here in Canada. A day when we pause to remember all that was lost, and all that was fought for in the line of duty. Instead of posting my weekly re-cap I decided today to instead share something a bit different. Yesterday was a rough day for me. Murphy’s Law struck and […]

For some reason this time of year always makes me think more about giving back to those less fortunate. Perhaps it’s because I associate this time of year with the giving and receiving of gifts. I always feel so very blessed on my birthday (which also happens to be in December) and on Christmas, so […]
October Faves
October has come and gone, and that means we are gearing up for you know what…. No, not snow (though I’m sure that’s on it’s way too). I’m talking about my October favourites list! That’s right, I’m actually following through and for the second month in a row compiling some of my favourite things. I […]
Pumpkins and Robots
Happy November the 4th, which according to my calendar is election day in the US. Here in Canada it’s just another ordinary Tuesday! Since I had to get my Footlogix giveaway up yesterday, today I’ll do my weekly life recap. 😉 After finding out I passed my exam last week (yippee!!!!) I’ve very much enjoyed not […]
Clarisonic Review
After many (many) years of lusting and wishing for one, I am the owner of a pretty blue Clarisonic Mia2 I have honestly been wanting one of these for at least 6 years! They are so expensive though, I just didn’t think I would ever feel like it was worth the money since I […]
