Hello friends! How’s your week going? Mine’s been pretty great so far, and I’m feeling particularly excited today because my friend Emma and I have been planning a trip that’s quickly approaching at the end of this month! Remember back in my goals for March when I said I was going to be exploring a new city? And […]
Ohhhhhhhhhhmega-3s! You’ve heard plenty of times that healthy fats – specifically omega-3s – are good for you, just like you know you should eat veggies, take your probiotics and floss your teeth. But with so much nutrition jargon out there, sometimes it can be hard to remember and understand why those healthy fats are actually beneficial. […]
Grab your spiralizers because it’s time to make some noodles! Sweet potato noodles, that is. Normally you’ll find me eating my sweet potatoes sprinkled in cinnamon and drizzled in almond butter, but in the name of switching things up, let’s do them in noodle form today. On a side note though, if you’ve never tried sweet […]
Back in 2011 I found myself ready to trade in my first car, a black 2-door Honda Civic, for a newer, less university student-esque model.

Let’s start with the first weird part of that first sentence, which is the words last night. Those that know about my workout habits also know that it is extremely rare to find […]
I wish I could sit you down at my kitchen table and eat this one with you because the deliciousness is too much to handle on my own. As someone who has been pescetarian for the last couple of years, I’ve done my fair share of fish cooking – and over-cooking. Of all the kinds […]
Winner, winner, I have your new favourite dinner!!! Well, at least a contender for your favourites. I was recently asked which meal of the day I look forward to most, and I couldn’t pick just one. Breakfast is awesome, especially after big workouts where you feel as though you’ve conquered the world. Lunch is fantastic, especially when […]
I’ve got a bowl beaming with warm, cozy goodness for you today, friends. My last week of 2016 was spent with one incredibly wicked sinus cold. You know the kind that makes it feel like your head is the size of a watermelon? It was one of those. After my mum left to go back […]
I try not to talk too much about the weather on the blog because I think it’s a topic that everyone – especially us Canadians – discuss a LOT. But today I have to tell you about the weather in Vancouver as of late because it’s been quite amusing. For a bit of background, one […]
