Our New Life
We’re about as ready as we’ll ever be for the next big change in our life – a move across the country to Montreal… today. If you feel that this has come on quite suddenly, you’d be right. Kevin and I made the decision about 1.5 months ago and it’s been a whirlwind of craziness…
Be True to You
I can just about guarantee that when I get together with my Mom, she’s going to bring me a box of things from my childhood. From baby clothes to kindergarten crafts, I’ve seen it all. I don’t know where she gets all the stuff, it just keeps coming! I’ve never been much of a sentimental…

Welcoming My 26th Year
Kevin and I headed out to the mountains yesterday morning for a hike and lunch at our favorite restaurant in Canmore to officially celebrate my birthday. We were supposed to go out for a wine tasting and visit to the new Science Center in Calgary on my actual birthday this week, but Kevin ended up…
Cardamom Vanilla Porridge + Exciting News!
We’ve been experiencing dreadfully cold mornings with rain, snow and lots of wind. Chilly mornings don’t exactly put me in the mood for a cold smoothie for breakfast, but they’re guaranteed to bring on a craving for a bowl of warm and nourishing porridge! I could have gone for the obvious oat-based porridge, but I…
