I recently had a speaking engagement at a club I co-organize called Home Essentials. Home Essentials meets every month or two for great conversation, recipes and homemaking ideas for women to better enjoy their family. I know “homemaking” might sound cheesy, but it’s really nice to have a group to…

It was a late winter night as we approached the country house. The boys were sound asleep in the car as we began to empty bags and bring them inside. We tried to keep quiet as we brought in the groceries, the luggage and all their special treasures, stepping in…

I’ve got a new gig! I’m happy and very proud to announce that I am a new contributor to MomResource.ca. I love the site as a blogger, to see what other Canadian moms are interested in, outside of my blog. Free samples and promotions are also a part of the…
