Some things happen and I look back and wish I could get those hours back and have a redo. I know it’s not worth it to look back, since that just wastes more time, but remembering can also prevent me from making the same mistakes twice. Examples? Watching “Old School”, or any Will Ferrell movie, […]
Monday Must-Haves
What are some things that have made you happy lately? Things you’re looking forward to? Things you love, want, or need? These are just a few things that fall into some of those categories for me :) 1) Clothing exchanges. I have been to two in the last month, the first two of my life. […]
I need a solution
My cat is addicted to contact solution. You’d think I would have him hooked on cookie dough or meat scraps, but no. Contact solution is what turns him into a yowling fiend when locked out of the bathroom, what causes him to climb my legs at warp speed from ankle to waist with his many […]
A personal realization
I have come to a realization about myself: I am not into process. We’ve pretty much finished renovations around here, with the exception of our kitchen and ensuite, and renovations continue in force in the basement, and this, combined with my love of perusing food blogs, has made me come to this striking realization about […]
Oh, Pinterest.
Bloggoooooons! I have missed you. I don’t know how people do this blogging thing all on their lonesome, holding sole responsibility for living an interesting life, cooking and baking interesting things, and also posting about their shenanigans! I’m so thankful to be doing this with Chelsea so I can disappear for a week and you […]
Questionable Marketing
You know how Superstore has the “Deal of the Week”? That one thing that you never actually need, but hope the cashier forgets to mention it so you get it for free? Packs of 800 toothpicks, cinnamon scented body wash, underarm incense sticks, whatever the case may be. Well, it turns out Staples has jumped […]
Sport skills are life skills
I’m no athlete, and have very little semblance of coordination or team camaraderie. My husband showed me these commercials since they made him think of me…should I be offended? :) [youtube id=”bARkhWUF8MI” width=”620″ height=”360″] [youtube id=”8huLjOxp8SY” width=”620″ height=”360″] [youtube id=”3glvheORpQo” width=”620″ height=”360″]
One Size Fits All?
The other day I went to the mall in hopes of sprucing up my post-baby wardrobe. I felt a little out of place, since my days of mall-going in the past nine months had been nearly non-existent, and I was no longer sure which store/category I belonged in, not being any older or less fashionable, […]
A Song for the Occasion
Yesterday marked the official last day of summer holidays, and that means today marks the official start of a new round of school for many kids, teens, and mature students such as myself. That also includes my brother-in-law. Which means he has removed himself, his lovely wife, and his sweet baby from my vicinity. Which […]
The domestic goddess knows how to delegate
I think there’s a common misperception that there exists such a thing as a “domestic goddess” who does it all herself, from icing 12 layer cakes for sick neighbours in a flash between cleaning the bathroom and bringing the kids to soccer practice, while cleaning out the garburator with her bare feet and pouring juice […]
