Our trip to Europe last summer truly was the trip of a lifetime! It had been twelve years since I’d been there (I had just finished grade seven last time I was in Europe), and Guido and I had never been together! We decided to explore the Italian Riviera, and it was nothing short of […]

Just like that, another year has come and gone! I can’t believe that this is my third “Inspirational Books” series, I started back in 2017! All those books in my previous roundups are still sitting on my bookshelf, and I love them all! So if you’re curious, here are my 2018 Inspirational Books and 2017 […]

One of our favourite summer getaways that we’ve been doing for a few years now is going to visit wineries in the Okanagan! We love the Naramata Bench (a 10-minute drive from Penticton) – it’s gorgeous, packed with wineries, and such a fun place to spend a weekend! The last two years we’ve stayed at […]

Happy September! Holy smokes can anyone else believe that it’s already September?! Summer is wrapping up and we can all feel fall in the air. Even if you’re not going back to school, we all have that feeling of settling back into a routine, organizing our schedule, and getting ready for fall. For me, this […]

Have you jumped on the energy ball train yet?! If not, trust me you are missing out! I can get enough of them. You all know that I love to start my day with a healthy and delicious breakfast, but I also need to have healthy and delicious snacks throughout the day! That’s why energy […]

What’s better than a light, refreshing, naked cake on a hot summer day?! Nothing! Which is why this is the perfect recipe for summer! Not to mention it’s absolutely delicious and indulgent too! I took the cake to a picnic for my friend’s birthday over the weekend and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved […]

Is anybody else beyond thrilled that it’s finally spring?! Helloooo warmer weather, new clothes, and of course spring baked goods! 😉 And what’s better than beautiful sugar cookies to celebrate the season?! This flower cookie bouquet brings back so many memories for me, as I used to make it with my mom growing up (see […]

It’s crazy to think that we’ve already been in our apartment for over two years! In the last few months, I’ve really been trying to finish all those last decorative touches that have been sitting on my to-do list for ages. We have quite a few bare walls that need some love, so I wanted […]

We’re still in the middle of winter, so I know I’m not the only one craving some good, warm comfort food! 😉 I made this lasagna last fall, and I had so many people ask me if I’d share the recipe. Haha it only took me just a little while to get around to it, […]

Happy New Year! Are you excited for 2018?! If you don’t already know this about me, I LOVE inspirational books! Whether it’s a personal self-help book, or one chock-full of business advice, send it my way! I wrote a similar post last year, where I shared my favourite “Inspirational Books to Kick off 2017” – […]
