We may appear to have it all together…

But we don’t! Social media is a great platform to build a business, stay connected

with long lost friends, share videos and photos, or document your day to day living.  It is also a fabulous way to showcase the best, most perfected happy life…or so we

believe! Posting nothing but refined and filtered photos that hide our blemishes,

tears and fears. It’s really easy for anyone to perform, and...

If you haven't already heard, we are hosting our 5th Eco-friendly Market and we'd love for you to join us!  The event will be held at Jackson Triggs Winery, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, from 11am - 4pm.  The event is FREE, with amazing door prizes to be won.  There will be food, wine, and amazing vendors that all share a common theme, they take the environment into consideration when selling their item or service....

Dear ‘Ma,

This is a letter I’ve been meaning to write for quite some time now… A letter you
deserve, and words you need to hear. I know I don’t say it enough or share with you
my thoughts and appreciation for your unconditional love you’ve given me since the
beginning. You have been at the core of it all, and would be by my side not matter
what kind of crazy, blubbering mess I’m in. You have this way of bringing me back
down t...

ECO EASTER

It’s that time again, and my mini-egg addiction is in full force, someone PLEASE give me a healthy chocolate or organic alternative!!! Ok, putting the bag down….wait, one more!  OK, making your Easter week-end ECO-FRIENDLY. Holidays are the absolute worst for single use plastics, it really is sooooo bad, and it all goes into the trash to sit there for 200 plus years, not cool!  Here are some options to keep it clean...

I think most mamas don’t exactly get excited about kid birthday parties. Whether we are planning them or attending them; it’s stressful, loud, busy and over-stimulating at the best of times!  We have all been apart of those celebrations where you watch your child (or another), unwrap gift after gift. The child develops this methodical way of just tearing through the bags and paper, and you catch yourself feeling uncertain by t...

Now the fun part…..I walked in the day before the live to tape, I met my stylist, Peter Papapetrou, he was so sweet and kind.  Right away I tried on about 6 or 7 outfits, some of them were WILD, his theme, “bring the sexy back (whoa! Insert another red face here)”.  Finally he picked a gorgeous outfit, I did feel beautiful in, and wasn't at all embarrassed to wear it, phew! Although, I had no idea if I was going to be able to...

PART ONE:

WOW, what a year of intense ups and downs for my family.  From the summer of 2017, until today, I can tell you this year + has been the most challenging for me to date.  What I can tell you is that I weathered the storms, and 2018 ended with a MASSIVE BANG!!!!!! Let’s just say you can call me a mini celebrity now, I’ll take autographs and photos later …..

Summer of 2017, I had to have my first surgery, to see if I...

I must confess, I am an avid viewer of the Marilyn Denis Show… I blame 2 maternity leaves, live morning television, and post pregnancy hormones!  This was my “me time”, to get my connection to the real world of all things “beauty”, while getting the update of all the top trends from décor to landscaping, to travelling, to parenting tips!  On top of that, I would often catch myself sobbing over all the wonderful, well-deserved...

We’re about to kick off our 4th Eco Market, by Simply Green Mums, and of course it’s Holiday themed :)  Finding vendors that are environmentally friendly is so important to us, especially after our buy nothing new year.  We made a pact, that this year we’d continue with second hand as much as possible, and when we did purchase something new, we’d try for something more environmentally friendly and sustainable.  Since Earth Day...
