On Friday May 10th, my little one and I had the wonderful opportunity to visit the new mini mioche store in Toronto’s Distillery District. Whenever possible, our family strives to buy local and at this store you can do just that – after all, mini mioche is organic, eco-friendly AND made in Canada!!!
First, and lately of greatest importance for me while shopping with a stroller, is accessibility – the store is easily accessed from the parking lot at the Distillery and not only is the store itself stroller friendly with ample space to maneuver, but outside there is even stroller parking! If you have kids who are on the move and restless shoppers, there’s even a small nook for them to play while you shop! Now that’s a concept!!!

Dine & Dish with @DawnDish {EVENT and RECIPE}
FUN EVENT - June 5th, 2013 On Wednesday, June 5th, Food Network’s John Catucci will be hosting Dine & Dish with Dawn - a pop-up poutinerie at Yonge-Dundas Square in Toronto, where the poutine is free if you clean your own dish with Dawn Ultra. That’s right; if you eat it –you clean it!
I created my very own Poutine a la Stroganoff recipe because it was the perfect food to put Dawn to the test!
Receive Your Groceries at Your Doorstep from @DonateNaturally
Donate Naturally is an organic grocery delivery company that delivers to the Greater Toronto Area. They generously donate 15% of each order to a charity of the customer’s choice. What is Donate Naturally?
You can't go wrong, right?! You get your organic groceries conveniently delivered right to your door and you have the opportunity to choose a charity to receive 15% of your order cost!
We recently had the opportunity to have a Fresh Weekly Staples Bin delivered right to our front door. I happened to be home when the delivery arrived and I was handed the basket from a woman who had such a cheerful disposition, it really was one of the most pleasant deliveries that I have ever received (and I have received a few!).
I loved receiving good quality, organic food! I don't always purchase organic food, mostly due to price and the lack of selection/quality at my local grocery store. I really loved receiving a bin full of organic food right at my doorstep. It was so convenient, definitely my type of shopping!

The Safe Sippy 2™ from @KidBasix
For two months now, our daughter has been eating solid foods. It has been a really fun journey so far!
At each meal, I have been giving her some water to help ‘wash’ her new foods down. We started using a standard sippy cup, however found it frustrating as she wanted to hold it and drink all by herself. We found she wasn’t strong enough to tilt the cup up and back far enough to have any success.
I began to search for a sippy cup with a straw so that she didn’t need to tilt or lift the cup. While the original cup we started with was plastic, I decided to search for a non-plastic alternative. I came across the Safe Sippy 2™ which is a ‘no-spill bottle made from clean, non-leaching stainless steel’. I really liked how this Sippy had options. It could be a classic sippy cup with a sippy valve, or a straw cup!
