I will say up front that I hate being cold. I also hate being too hot. I’m a Libra – I don’t go for extremes. But being cold, really, I cannot stand it and it makes me quite grumpy. People always say to me “but you’re Canadian, you must be used to the cold.” I [...]

Obtaining Payday Loans Payday loan Why is a payday loan right for you
Aaahhhh memories of summer birthday parties. Long warm sunny days, water fights, sun kissed skin, ice-cream cakes, jumping on the trampoline, and sunshine. It’s the sunshine that really sticks in my mind – that and the ice cream cakes my mum would make. But unfortunately these memories aren’t of my own birthday parties; instead they’re [...] Those of you with children will know how much fun it can be – NOT - to have your little ones accompany you to the supermarket. Aisles and aisles of tempting treats that turn kids into “I want” monsters. And I will admit that on far too regular a basis I find myself compromising and buying them [...] Canapes: little nibbles that you can eat in 1 or 2 bites.

It takes soooo much longer to get out the door in the morning when Crocs on feet just don’t cut it, and [...] The man and I recently had a long weekend away. Without children. Let me be a bit more specific – it was the first time since the boy was born over 8 years ago that we had been away without children. 8 YEARS. So our destination had to be somewhere a bit special, but not somewhere [...] I had a rare day to myself at home the other day. My plan was to go through an alarmingly large pile of post (mail) that was taking over my desk, write a blog post, and maybe do some cooking. Ok, not MAYBE do some cooking – that was a bit of a given. I [...] Hawaiian with olives – before Last night was pizza night. Generally pizza night is Saturday night, but recently Saturday evenings have been tied up with other things. This past Saturday I was busy making sure 70 people were well fed and happy. Hectic, but fun. No pizza that night though. On pizza night we make [...] |
