The school year is quickly coming to an end. It's bitter-sweet for us really. We look forward to lazy summer days of sleeping in and going to the beach, but I know the kids will be constantly nagging "what can we do?" and "what can we eat?". At this very moment my newly four year old is whining "mommy, I want a treat" and it's only 9 am! sigh..... Made in Italy, but sold right here in Canada, MiSURA offers a range of 'better for you' biscuits, cookies and pasta! Cookies … [Read more...]

Meet Poppy! Phil&Teds High Chair to My Chair!
Just before my oldest son was born, companies started coming out with products that could adapt and grow with your child. Amen! Why hadn't they thought of this earlier?!

Fast forward a few years and we were parents of not one, not two, but three boys and quality, durability and dependability were more important than ever! Meet Poppy! Poppy is … [Read more...]

When I first saw the trailers come out for the movie Guilt Trip, I knew I wanted to check it out.
