Project: Inspiration
Inspiration – time to reflect. Travelling to Southeast Asia was amazing and I’ve slept a lot in the last week since being home – it takes some time to readjust and get back into the swing of things. That, however, isn’t exactly what I want to do. I don’t want to just slip back into my life, but rather jump in more aware, less stressed, and with a clear perspective. Life is grand. In and of itself, it’s a beautiful thing. I met people who…

Projects: Guest Room
Guest Room We did it again, we re-did the guest room. When we first moved in on November 25, 2011 we re-did the guest room quickly because we had a visitor not even 6 weeks later – my mom. Since then it’s basically stayed the same. In March of 2015 we got the windows in both main floor rooms turned into doors since one day we’ll have a deck all around the house. Then, this past fall we renovated the closet in that room and…

Right now I’m working on her Yoga Fix 90 and today is day 74 for me. I haven’t missed one session. Nope, not…

Project: Christmas Recap
Christmas recap – this is a little throwback to some of the recipes and projects I’ve done in the past. This year, I’m taking the holidays a little slower and not focused so much on making things, but rather spending time with my husband and my two dear puppies who most likely won’t be around too much longer. My heart is full and things are great! Christmas Recap Just because I’m slowing down, however, doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy a few favourites, right? In 2013…

Project: Junk Drawer
Junk Drawer Getting it organized for less than 10$. Total score. This project has been on my to-do list for quite some time and I’m happy to finally cross it off. First, a picture of the completely messy drawer. Everything just shoved in there with no home – all feeling lost. I wanted some containers to keep things in place and I didn’t want to spend a lot of money, so I hit up the dollar store. What I did, however, was take measurements of…

Projects: Halloween Treats
Halloween Treats Yes. It’s Halloween – the holiday of candy – tomorrow. Are you ready? We are. You know I like to make big treats for the kiddos in our neighbourhood. There aren’t that many houses on the block and, well, the driveway is long. So they should get a special treat. I never know how many trick-or-treaters we’re going to get. In 2012, our first year, I was managing a bar and I totally forgot the next day was Halloween. So I stopped at…
