Wellness. Yoga. Real Life
I'm definitely a true Canadian and not meant for this mid-summer heat! Spending so much time with my nieces and nephews this summer, and watching them devour ice cream like it's their job, I decided to make my own sweet treat (but something a little on the healthier side). With only six ingredients, and a [...]
First let me start off by saying that pregnancy boobs are no joke! I've gone up three sizes in the last 19 weeks and while I'm not sure if the girls are done growing, I sure hope so! Needless to say I was in the market for some new bras. I knew that quality and [...]
I have been working from home for over a year now; 16 months to be exact, which is totally BANANAS when I think about it that way. Because I'm home all the time now, the days can really blend together (I've lost track of the day of the week a few times now) and it's [...]
I've never thought too much about what my interior design style actually is; I've never really had to. During my university years I lived with my best friends in a house near campus. Our "style" was basically whatever hand-me-down furniture we could get (and a subscription to Cosmo magazine- the early 20 year old's bible). [...]
Smoothies will always be a favourite of mine. They are so easy to make and take no time at all. This particular smoothie tastes just like a vanilla cake mix straight from the bowl. Enjoy! Vanilla Cake Smoothie Serves: 1 Ingredients: 1 serving of vanilla flavoured protein powder 1/4 quick oats1/2 tsp of cinnamon2 pitted [...]
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. Last Monday (Labour Day), I decided to go on my first Whole30 so that means I've ditched my daily smoothies for some baked egg cups and leafy greens [...]
What is it about four-day weeks that makes them feel six days long? This week was so busy at my 9-5 day job, I was working late and struggling to keep my emails at bay. When I think back to the beginning of the year, I can't get over how much my daily routine has [...]
