All of my life my family has purchased Farmers products. That’s just the way it was. There were a couple other brands out there, but we always bought Farmers. Farmers is an Atlantic Canadian brand that is nearly 100 years old, using milk from local dairy farmers – our neighbours and friends. Even after I got […]
5-Minute Meals: Burrito Bowl
Eating healthy when in a hurry can be difficult. And with the lure of fast food it can be all to easy to take a trip to the drive thru instead of making something yourself. With my 5-minute burrito bowl, not only can you make a healthy meal fast but it’ll be less expensive […]
My 2015 Pan Am Games Experience
There are many opportunities that blogging has given me, and travelling to Toronto two weeks ago to experience the first couple days of the 2015 Pan Am Games certainly ranks as one of the most amazing. I’ve known for months that I would be going, but like any trip, it almost seems too good to be […]
Nova Scotia’s Pan Am Princess Ellie Black!
In the words of one of the CBC broadcasters last week, “Every young girl in Canada wants to be the next Ellie Black.” source And in these games, I don’t think there has been a more true statement. Ellie is powerhouse, and was a force to be reckoned with last week coming home as the most […]
