My Tim Hortons Double Double Drive Thru Dance I thought I’d share a wacky Canadian story with my south of the border buddies. The other day I have a craving for a classic double double (that’s Canada speak for a coffee with 2 sugars and 2 creams) so I load little H up in the van and head to Tim [...]
I’m so excited to be attending a wine tasting and seminar today! If you love wine and want to know more about Burgundy Wines make sure you follow my twitter stream. I’ll be posting throughout the day as I sip. About the event: Calgary, Alberta: February 8, 2010—Over the last ten years, exports of Burgundy wines to Canada have experienced [...]
It seems my blog has decided to email out some old posts. Please forgive me, it must be a glitch caused by switching over templates…it seems I have a widget gone crazy or something. I don’t have any giveaways running – and won’t have. So this is just a quick post to apologize for the blog’s antics. So, what do [...]
I was reading through my archives this weekend and it became *smack in the head* apparent my best posts are the ones I’ve written about life. About the love I have for my dear little H. About enjoying the little things. About me. Sure, I’ve enjoyed interviewing creative moms. And I’ve loved sharing their work with you. But I need [...]
I’m writing this with sadness in my heart, my bones, my very breath. One of our fellow mom bloggers is living every parents worst nightmare and there is nothing anyone can do to wake her up. Yesterday Shellie Ross’s (@military_mom on twitter) 2.5 year old son drowned in her backyard pool. Her little boy was the same age as my [...]
It’s dark except for the nightlight on her dresser. “Put your head on my shoulder and I’ll sing to you.” “Tinkle tinkle staw?” “No, something different tonight.” “The itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout. Down came the rain and washed the spider out. Out came the sun and dried up all the rain and the itsy bitsy spider [...]
I thought I’d do something different this week and focus on visuals. I tend to think of myself as a writer, however, that doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate something beautiful to look at. This week I’m inspired by mom blogs that go above and beyond when it comes to design, layout and photography. I know looking at these beauties will [...]
Little H is starting to sing and dance – she’s becoming quite the performer. So naturally, I do anything possible to encourage this adorable behavior. She’s loving this Get Me Goin’ CD we were given for review. It’s all about healthy eating and nutrition but she really just loves the music. It’s not ‘kiddie’ music, you know? It’s based on [...]
I know this should be day four of Blogs Giving but I didn’t post yesterday so for me it’s day three ok? Today, I’m thankful for Gena of The Morris Bunch Blog. Gena is a spitfire of a gal whose energy just blasts through the screen when I read her posts. Even when she is feeling under the weather (she’s [...]
Today is Tuesday, and so, I’d like to share with you an internet destination that is awash in randomness. Fellow Canuck, Keely, blogs at the UnMom. I enjoy Keely’s blog for many reason. #1 – she’s Canadian (I know I said that already but it’s a big one ok?) #2 – she’s funny. Sometimes I think I’m funny. Then I [...]
