“Happy” is just one of those songs that you can’t help but like when you hear it. Even after you hear it on the radio 5000 times, the 5001st time you still like it. That’s why, when the kids in my after school program asked me to choreograph it for their last class of the […]
Cancer Survivor’s Day: Heather’s Story
Today, June 7th is National Cancer Survivor’s Day, a day where we honour all of the wonderful heroes walking among us who have lived through the scary diagnosis of cancer, and walked through to the other side. As most of you know, I have worked with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada to raise money […]
Dance Fitness: Uptown Funk
I’m aware I am behind the times only bringing this song out now. Sometimes it takes me a while to get going. In fact, it wasn’t until I saw Lindsay Taylor’s video on Instagram that I even considered bringing it into the rotation. And that was back in February so that makes me even further behind the […]
Do You Know A Caring Canadian?
Each time we turn on the news we are bombarded with so much tragedy and violence. So today I want to take a few minutes to talk about the good in people and the world, because it can be easy to get caught up in the bad. There are so many wonderful people in Canada […]
#PlantItForward with Kashi
With the always rising costs of food, and many people focusing more on eating healthy, nutritious food, I think we are all looking for ways to eat better, but save money at the same time. One easy way to do that is by growing your own fruit and vegetables! Did you know that less than […]
Mix 47
I’m so behind on releases right now. I still have songs from releases 4 months ago that I want to use, and I haven’t used a single song from the last ZIN yet! Sheesh! So when I saw MM47 in the mailbox today I was both excited, and a little overwhelmed. I need to get […]
Peanut Butter Snack Bite Recipes
A few weeks ago I shared with you my recipe for Choco-Coco Peanut Butter Snack Bites, which are made using Kraft All Natural Smooth Peanut Butter. These snack bites are a snacking staple in our house! Since then I’ve had the opportunity to make a batch with my niece Emma, who is quite the ball […]
Volume 57 Preview
I love Lindsay Taylor. I really like Gina and Kass, I’m still sad I never got to meet Tanya, but Lindsay is my all-time favourite. I just love that girl. And ever since I saw her Instagram pictures from the shooting of ZIN 57 I’ve been impatiently awaiting it’s arrival. I still have to wait another […]
Bluenose Half Marathon 2015
Remember back this winter when I actually thought I was going to show up to a spring race fully trained for it? I amuse myself sometimes. Needless to say, that didn’t happen. First we had the winter that just would end, and I’m a terrible treadmill runner so my training didn’t really start until […]
No-Bake Berry Crumble Icebox Cake
Here in Canada today is Victoria Day. It’s one of those holidays that is only sort of a holiday, with many people still having to work and not getting to enjoy a long weekend. But that doesn’t mean you can’t still celebrate in your own way – and a special dessert is always a great […]
