We all have that time of day where hunger strikes and we are tempted to grab for the snacks and treats we know we shouldn't be eating. For me that time of day is always mid to late afternoon, around 3-4pm every. single. day. For a lot of people though, it's that mid morning hump that they need to conquer before getting to lunch. Do you have the willpower? Kellogg's makes it easy to satisfy hunger! The new Special K Protein cereal has 10 grams of protein and nine grams of fibre to keep … [Read more...]

Last fall my husband and I had our 10 year anniversary. We celebrated the occasion with some take out Thai food. yeah, woohooo, right? Nothing special going on there and it was definitely not how I envisioned the celebration going. I had always dreamed of a romantic getaway to celebrate 10 amazing years together, it was definitely worthy of that! Alas, life doesn't always work out the way you plan right? With our 11 year anniversary right around the corner we were ready to let the day slip by … [Read more...]

Our favourite way to sneak in the fibre at our house is fruit, but nuts and grains are a major source as well, especially for my cereal eating boys! Sadly, Mama is not a cereal lover.

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?".
