My hands ALWAYS have to be clean. I cannot stand it if I have dirty hands. It is to the extreme folks! I am a bit of a germaphobe, but that is not what I am talking about. I am talking about the feeling of “not clean” hands. You know that feeling? Perhaps you don’t. Perhaps you weren’t blessed with first child syndrome like I am. Do you know what I’m talking about: first child syndrome? My Mom blames my persistent need to always have clean hands on being a first child. You see, as her first child, she constantly … Continue reading →

Yengo Summer Shoe Giveaway

Many women are known for their huge shoe collection. I’m not a typical woman in many ways and while I love shoes, the practical person in me has never gone down that path. However, I will tell you when I searched Yengo for a pair of summer shoes, there was great temptation that I didn’t know existed within me. Their wonderful selection of gorgeous, top quality summer shoes was incredible. I got sucked in for a LONG time trying to decide what pair I should choose! I finally landed on the Jambu Blossom Red Sandal Mary Jane. I really liked … Continue reading →

Keurig K200 Giveaway

Are you a coffee lover like I am? Me and coffee go WAY back! I still remember heading across the street from my high school to the local coffee shop and enjoying coffee triple-triple (yes, it was more like a dessert!) on my spares. It was a social thing at the time, more than it was the desire for caffeine (although that certainly helped). Over the years, while coffee certainly remains to be a social “thing” for me, it is more of a comfort and yes, I will admit…somewhat of a necessity. Because I work from home, and not in … Continue reading →

parenting game

When I was younger (much, much younger), I used to dream of becoming a parent one day. I dreamt of the typical white picket fence, two children (a boy and a girl –>I’m very fortunate that my dream came true) and that I would be a stay at home Mom. When I would dream, I had VERY rose coloured glasses on, because I was naive and really had NO CLUE just how challenging parenting could be at times. Please don’t get me wrong! I LOVE being a parent and it is truly the most rewarding ‘job’ on the planet BUT….with … Continue reading →

Most of us love to cuddle and hold our babies when they are little, but there are many reasons why we also need a comfy and safe place to put them down.

Mastercard Giveaway

What would you do with an extra $100 in your pocket this spring? Perhaps you would put it towards a BBQ, a patio set, a new bathing suit, grass seed, or something else? I know I would likely put it towards some nice patio furniture for my backyard. On the weekend, we were visiting various garden centres looking at lawnmowers when the beautiful outdoor furniture caught my eye! I have wanted to get a large umbrella or shelter for the backyard for many years now, ever since our canopy tent was destroyed in a bad rainstorm. I would love to … Continue reading →
