White Lights & Relaxation At The RBC Avion Holiday Boutique #AVIONVIP

Avion-VIP-Boutique

I’m not a fancy person. I can’t remember the last time I wore high heels, and my favourite daily outfit is jeans and a t shirt (preferably with large numbers on it). That’s not to say I’m not secretly envious of women in Toronto, New York, London, and LA, because great clothes, good hair, and an editorial job at a …

What To Expect When You’re Expecting Hand, Foot, And Mouth Disease

After a very interesting fall complete with a teacher’s strike that left my kids at home for over 3 months of summer vacation, I was ready for all 4 of my kids to be in the school full time. Once upon a time I had dreaded such a thing, and couldn’t imagine what I’d do with myself during the day …

Digital Healthcare Is A Mom’s Best Friend

digital healthcare

Back when I had my first baby and she became ill or was acting out of sorts, all I had were books to lean on. If I had to make a doctor’s appointment because I knew she was sick and getting sicker, I had to hang on the phone and keep checking back because I was constantly getting a busy …

Keep your kids safe online – #CyberTalk September 17th

#cybertalk

My daughter’s final project in elementary school was a speech on any topic she wanted to focus on. The only requirements were that it be 5 minutes long and something relevant to kids her age. Imagine how proud I was of her when she said she wanted to talk about the dangers of the Internet and how to keep kids …

Netflix USA in Canada

I’ve never been shy about my disappointment in Canadian Netflix. After years of subscribing to the service, there still aren’t as many titles available on Netflix Canada vs Netflix USA. You’ve probably heard about and read the blog posts on how you can get Netflix USA in Canada while still using your current Netflix account, and it’s definitely true. It’s …

Hotel reviews – Cozy up to the Residence Inn Tustin

Residence Inn Tustin

There aren’t very many times I’d use the word ‘cozy’ when it comes to a hotel. Hotels are usually nice, clean, and sterile looking, designed to welcome you in and welcome you back out again. After all, if you’re only staying a night or two, you don’t need cozy. You need functional. But cozy is exactly what I’d call the …

Road Trip Planner – Dodge Grand Caravan is the best vehicle for the drive

dodge-caravan-roadtrip-to-disneyland

Driving from Vancouver to Disneyland takes stamina, patience, and a seriously reliable vehicle. This isn’t a drive for the faint of heart, because you’ll encounter flats, forests, and mountains, plus possibly some of the worst highway traffic I’ve ever seen on a road that’s supposed to be 120km/70 miles per hour speed limit. I’ve done the drive on the I5 …

How I Forced An Ikea Table To Turn Into A DIY FarmHouse Table (Photos)

ikea-hacks-kitchen-table

    This basic black Ikea Bjurstra table was the bane of my existence. I’d walk into my kitchen and I’d see it, all black and annoying, with it’s scratched up surface from too many tussles with a Bey Blade and having one too many hot pots just plunked down on it. No, it wasn’t very old – we bought …
