Mother Nature is playing tricks on us these days, one day we get hints at warmth, the next it snows, rain the following day. It would be nice not to have to experience all four seasons in the same week! But nevertheless, Spring is trying hard to make it through the last of the dreary Winter and with any luck we'll soon be feeling the sun on our skin (hello vitamin D!) and the grass on our toes (goodbye snow!). I don't know about you, but I actually welcome the cleaning that comes with Spring. … [Read more...]

March Break was a bit of a bust for our family, as the flu hit hard and we were all sick. Now that everyone is starting to feel better, all eyes are on Easter and lucky for us it's just around the corner! We're hoping Mother Nature co operates with some warm sunshine so we can get out and about for some first of the season bike rides and hikes and of course some egg hunts too!

Spring is ever so slowly making it's way back to us. I can see a few patches of green on my lawn that was long lost to the white stuff just a couple of weeks ago. While it seems like the warm weather can't come soon enough, I've already been firing up the barbecue and dishing up tasty fruit for dessert! I just can't wait any longer! Fresh fruit is a summertime favourite for the whole family, but my sweet toothed boys beg for whip cream topping. Nothing like taking a perfectly … [Read more...]
