Who else is excited for Christmas?! Can you believe we’re less than a month away from the big day?! I love this time of year with all the decorations, the time spent with family, the holiday cheer, and of course one of my favourites – the sweet treats, like this red velvet cake! I love […]

Hi Everyone! For those of you who followed my Instastory in October, you know that I spent the month doing a 30-day yoga challenge at my local studio, YYoga! I had been wanting to do a yoga challenge for a while, but it never seemed to work with my schedule. Finally though, this was the […]

It’s summer vacation time! Holidays are just so exciting, from booking your flights, to researching travel blogs, to devouring Lonely Planet books, and then the days leading up to your trip – it’s just filled with so much fun and excitement! I love packing, laying everything out on the bed (haha Charlie is upset because […]

Happy hump day everyone! I know we’re all still reminiscing about the long weekend, and wishing we were still sipping on a cocktail poolside… 😉 But alas, for most of us, we’re back to work in full hustle! I know Wednesdays for me are especially tough because while you can almostttt see the weekend, we’re […]

Can anyone else believe that May is almost behind us?! How crazy is that?? This first half of the year has just flown by, so I’m really looking forward to slowing things down this summer and enjoying each and every day!

A little while back now, last April, we snuck off to Maui for a week, and it was HEAVENLY! Now I say snuck off because I was about to graduate university, and Guido and I were both ridiculously busy with work, so it was an awesome little break in the midst of craziness! We had […]

Hi everyone! Things are slowly coming together in our new apartment, albeit a little slower than I would like, but it’s definitely making me practice my patience! Decorating our new place, finding the right pieces, building the built-ins, and updating our fireplace all take time! Last week, I FINALLY got to demo the awful brown […]

After reading Jillian Harris’ blog post on her journey to being vegan-ish, I spent a good chunk of Friday pouring over vegetarian and health-conscious blogs and was inspired! Guido and I have been trying really hard to be more conscious about where our food comes from, buying local organic eggs, organic and antibiotic-free chicken, eating […]

And so another new year begins! Crazy huh? We’re a few days into January now and we’re all still trying hard to keep our healthy eating and daily exercising resolutions, but this year I decided I wanted to take my resolutions a bit further. A few weeks ago now, I read Gretchen Rubin’s “The Happiness […]
