This post is sponsored by iHerb. I know, I know. It’s January and Valentine’s Day isn’t until February 14th. I’ve always been a planner, so in true planner fashion, I’ve been testing out some tasty (and healthy) sweet treats to celebrate with. If you follow any raw vegan foodie accounts on Instagram, I’m sure you’re […]
Every once in a while, I look back at my oldest blog recipes, specifically for ones that need a little “help” – in other words, the recipes whose photos were taken with my iPhone or point-and-shoot camera back in the very early blogging days. While some of those photos are totally cringe-worthy (and therefore purposely […]
I hope you like lots of COLOURSSSSSSSSS!!!!!! Today’s post is a quickie because this has been one heck of a busy week so far. Yesterday marked the beginning of 29 for me, and the celebrations left me convinced that I know some of the most wonderful people in the world. Even though I worked on […]
When my sister and I were growing up, one of our favourite things to do was visit my grandpa’s house and pick raspberries in the backyard. We’d each be sent out with an empty ice cream bucket, instructed to ‘pick dessert’ for that evening. Following the one-for-the-bucket-one-for-the-mouth rule (because I’ve always been big on quality […]

There’s no doubt that cauliflower is having a moment, and I’m certainly not complaining. As a kid, I remember only ever being served it in boiled form, and only eating it because my sister and I would smother it in cheese sauce first. It was more of a “would you like some cauliflower with your cheese” […]
Hello there! Happy Monday, friends. ? How was your weekend? I’m coming back from mine feeling pretty darn good, re-energized and ready to start a fresh. See, work has been pretty nutty lately with a lot of change going on, and by Wednesday of last week I just felt scattered. Nothing terrible or anything, but just not 100%. While […]
Four more sleeeeeeps till Christmas time!! Fa-la-la-la-laaaaaaaaaaaaa, la-la-la-laaaaaaa. Are you excited? I’m excited. But I bet you couldn’t tell, right? Seriously though, it finally feels like Christmas now. I’m not sure if it was the massive snowfall (by Vancouver standards) that we had on Sunday night, the writing of Christmas cards, the wrapping of presents, or […]
When I was doing my business undergrad, one of my favourite electives was psychology. The areas I loved most were sports psychology and consumer behaviour, and considering I’m now a marketer in my full-time job who loves all things sweaty, that probably comes as no surprise. I took those classes in 2nd and 3rd year, but looking […]
One of my favourite memories from summers of years past was going to visit my cousins at their house in Ontario. At the time, my family lived in my hometown of Edmonton, and making the trip was something I’d look forward to for months. We spent our days doing all the things that make summer holidays […]
