Wellness. Yoga. Real Life
At 37 years old I just recently announced to my friends and extended family that my hubs and I are expecting. At 37 I'm technically defined as a 'geriatric pregnancy' - though, now they refer to is as 'advanced maternal age.' Which of course just makes you feel fantastic... I mean, that's what every woman [...]
In the late fall of 2020 I started following a lot of cottagecore accounts; there was just something about a cabin in the woods, surrounded by fall foliage that really spoke to me. Any cabin/cottage that was tagged in Ontario I would follow on IG and Riverbend Cabin was one of them. I just so [...]
In September of 2020, I decided I would attempt my first Whole30. I felt that over the summer there was an increased consumption of junk food, BBQs and booze and I really wanted a good “reset” so to speak. I had seen in people’s IG bio’s they had done a Whole30 three or four times, [...]
Happy Monday, everyone! It's hard to believe we are already mid-September! Seriously, it feels like everything that happened after March 13, 2020 went by in a flash.

Alright, it's safe to say I am officially over this pandemic! In the words of "Schitt's Creek's" Alexis Rose, "I miss my life! And I miss doing things." I recently started following a ton of travel accounts on Instagram. it wasn't anything that I planned, it's just that I kept searching for small towns and [...]
It's hard to believe we are at the end of August already. I mean, sometimes it still feels like we're in March and the pandemic isn't a real thing.... but here we are. My August Petit Vour box has finally arrived! Since the pandemic, the mail has been moving a bit slower so this post [...]
