Canadian Tire is committed to changing this epidemic of inactivity this summer! The … [Read more...]

When BFF, Jenn (MomVsTheBoys) ask me to literally take the Trudeau Salad Spinner and accessories for a spin; I was more than thrilled! I fell in love with the look of Trudeau when she first posted her chocolate chip muffin recipe using the Trudeau muffin pan. It's bright colour was such a nice change to the metallic look of the standard pans - I'm a sucker for bright colours. When she dropped off the spinner and I saw bright green, I was instantly happy! Cooking should be fun and … [Read more...]
