Today’s post has no real wordy-pithy content. It’s mostly just to share photos of how we spent Labor Day weekend this year. It was pretty uneventful, as I am still recovering from a cold, and we mostly spent the time preparing for Willow to start Junior Kindergarten. Groceries, last-minute school […]
Located in the Kanata Centrum, the Central Bierhaus is one of Kanata’s newest establishments and is located where O’Connors was previously at 650 Kanata Avenue. The restaurant is open every day from 11am until 2am. The interior of the restaurant is incredible and, if you remember what the interior of […]
This past weekend, Willow and I attended an Ottawa REDBLACKS game together. The REDBLACKS were playing the Calgary Stampeders on a beautiful and HOT Sunday afternoon. The stadium was, yet again, sold out to capacity and the energy in the stadium was palpable. Willow was SO excited to attend her first […]
This past weekend I headed up to Casino Rama, near Orillia, with three of my most favourite people: my momma (Julie), my sister (Trina) and my BFF (Crystal). We were going up to experience the Girlz Getaway Package and to see Alanis live in concert. To say that the four […]
Tonight was incredible. I attended my very first football game, the Ottawa REDBLACKS against the Saskatchewan Roughriders, and it couldn’t have been more fun!

Today was a big day for us. Willow’s first hair cut. Her hair has never been touched before – well, except for one strand of hair that I clipped so I could save her tiny baby curl – and I had been putting it off for awhile now. But today […]
Tonight was so much fun. Willow and I ventured down to The Studio Cafe in Hintonburg for a workshop hosted by the creative, talented and mega-amazing Kate Durie. The workshop was called The Gratitude Kit and it featured a beautiful introduction to gratitude by Kate herself followed by play, play […]
Willow and I just got home from our stay at one of Tremblant Living‘s properties, La Grande Foret, and it was one of the most incredible times I’ve ever had away from home. We headed up there on Monday afternoon and stayed two nights and three days. The first night my […]
