The @Gillette Fusion ProGlide Styler #PGMom

This post was written by my hubby! He says he is “A husband, a father, and an engineer. In that order.” Recently I was given the opportunity to review the Gillette Fusion ProGlide Styler. I am, quite possibly, the precise target demographic for this product because: I look extremely goofy without facial hair. As a result of number 1 above, I always maintain some form of facial hair. I am married to a woman who believes that any facial hair longer than 0.25″ is “scruffy”, “unkempt”, “messy” and generally unpleasant to look at. (So, yeah, there is no talk of … Continue reading →

I am a Stats girl – as much as I disliked taking Stats in University, I love looking at my numbers on this blog. I find it fascinating which posts are popular and which ones aren’t!

Are you looking for a last minute gift idea that will be a hit with a young child on Christmas Day? I’ve got one for you! Quercetti Migoga 106 Piece Super Marble Run During the first couple of weeks of Kindergarten, my son would talk about a marble building toy in the Building Centre at school. At the school’s open house, I asked him to show it to me so that I understood exactly what his favourite toy had become. No wonder my son loves this toy! He can build it, use his imagination and creativity AND have a marble … Continue reading →

MICKEY’S CHRISTMAS CAROL: 30th Anniversary Special Edition Available on Blu-ray Combo Pack

I’ve always had a special place in my heart for Mickey Mouse! I was very excited to share this movie with my kids a few weekends ago. Every Saturday night, we have a Family Movie Night, providing we don’t have other plans, of course. Even though this movie starred the cute and adorable Mickey, the story line still remained a bit dark for my kids’ liking. They are very sensitive to “scary” or “darker” movies. This fear includes any “bad guy”, regardless of the outcome. Hubby and I enjoyed this movie as it is a classic tale, and I thought … Continue reading →

Each night he flies back to report about the day’s activities. In the morning he is perched in a different place. My kids love waking up in the morning and searching for Jack. Even though they are not allowed to … Continue reading →
