  • New Year Resolutions for a Mama

    You are a mother, so most likely, you have decided that this new year you will do more for your child, or perhaps more for others. I have another suggestion. Being a mother channels your gratitude, love, patience and understanding, but it also shines a bright light on self-doubt, anxiety…

March break has been filled with comfort and delic March break has been filled with comfort and deliciousness. Grandma MOE made the most epic banana cupcakes and this is the first time I have made them. She made them for her grandsons, and only her oldest remembered the taste the moment it hit his mouth. Friends, I heard something in #Wandavision that struck me hard: "What is grief if not love persevering?". Making my mom's cupcakes from her recipe, is my love persevering. And it comes with gut-wrenching loss as well as happiness. I felt all of those things when I took a bite of this damn cupcake. Crazy, huh?
March in Quebec, Canada. Do I look happy about it? March in Quebec, Canada. Do I look happy about it? My son has his ski goggles on so he can sled and not ruin his eyes! My friends in warmer areas across the globe, I will continue to enjoy your sun-shinning posts and wish for spring here! #ohCanada #fakesmile #getoutside
We managed to get a project done for our boys. We We managed to get a project done for our boys. We got posters from their favourite movies! We placed them in poster frames in the basement for their ultra cool hangout. These simple projects can take a while (got the posters for them for Christmas) but they are so amazing when they are done. What movie poster would you put up? #mrsdoubtfire #harrypotter #ferrisbuellersdayoff #familymovienight
It's March. I mean, how? Haven't we been in March It's March. I mean, how? Haven't we been in March all year? 
My son took to painting and made this sweet little decoration for #stpatricksday out of a yogurt container. Do you celebrate St. Patrick's Day? With kids, it's fun to find any reason to celebrate. But I'm 1/2 Irish so this is a special day for us. To see a few ideas for little ones, feel free to check my celebrating section #ontheblog ☘
Pizza in all its homemade glory. If you had told m Pizza in all its homemade glory. If you had told me a year ago I would be making fresh pizza dough at home every weekend, I would have laughed. While I may have made pizza before, I can say now I've perfected it. Pizza for five, right on the cookie sheets like my nonna used to do. What is one thing you are cooking / baking now that you didn't before?
PS @montreal_mom 's dough recipe is pretty awesome.
Hey guys! I got a haircut! By ME. Yep, it's not pe Hey guys! I got a haircut! By ME.
Yep, it's not perfect. I don't have that awesome shiny finish the stylist puts on my hair to give it extra oomph but it'll do. I know we all have different versions of what we can handle. Truth is, I can't handle much else besides my boys being in school (I can hardly handle that). I still sanitize my groceries. I still keep my coat in the garage to air out. I have a system for things coming into the home. Do you judge me for it? Today is #pinkshirtday in schools. It is supposed to emphasize to children to be nice and end bullying. But guess what? If they see parents bullying - online and offline, this day won't really mean much to them. 
So parents, let's #bekind to each other. We are all doing what we can to stay safe & stay sane. Respect others, our kids are watching.
