When I get asked questions like "what are your goals for this year" or "what are you hoping to achieve this year", my answer always leads back to that one word I LOVE referring back to; my favourite word to use and describe all things in life, my answer to everything positive and good: H…
I'm not going to lie; Ottawa has been VERY COLD! We've been dealing with negative temperatures every day (and night) and there doesn't seem to be an end in sight. I'm not complaining though so don't get me wrong, I'm just stating the obvious and preparing anyone who plans on visiting the area. It really…
Time flies - I can’t believe it’s already 2019. I honestly feel like it was just Christmas 2017 and we were on our Louisiana/Tennessee adventure. I can still smell the pulled pork at Jack’s Bar-B-Que in Nashville! YUM! Now is the time to look back on this last year; smile at all of the memories,…

#theSUNDAYcollective I truly love Sundays basically because they give me the time I need to think; to reflect on the week; and to look forward on what is to come for the next week {or even weeks ahead}. Being able to have that personal time; one on one with yourself; allows you to reflect on…
Soups make for a great meal option anytime during the year; but in my opinion, the best time is during the colder months - specifically autumn and fall. I find that by springtime I'm tired of all the soups and hot meals and am just aching to start the BBQ and salad diet! One of…
Don't you just LOVE when all of your blacks match? I mean; I know black is black but, do you ever find that your favorite pair of black denim {which you've probably washed 50 times or more} no longer matches your favorite leather jacket? And, what about your shoes - why do they look so…
