It has been a particularly hot summer here in Southern Ontario, and anyone who works outdoors can arguably attest to this. It’s been brutal at times, and when you factor in the lack of rain, the combination becomes borderline intolerable. I am a heavy sweater in normal temperatures, so you can imagine how moist I … More Read this before your next Costco run
It’s no secret that I become borderline feral when it comes to pickles. My preference is dill, and I’m not a huge fan of sweet ones – in my opinion, pickles are meant to be dilly. Not sugary. Anytime I spot something new and exciting in the realm of pickles, I am more than willing … More If you like pickles, read this
When it comes to restaurants, there doesn’t seem to be a shortage of roadhouses. I am not complaining about this, because roadhouses almost always offer familiar favourites and cold drinks, and that’s just about all I require in the context of eating out. I know a few people who tend to pull their noses up … More Here’s your sign to visit Kelseys Original Roadhouse
Blaine and I had the privilege of attending my childhood best friend’s wedding this past weekend. She and her now husband make for a truly beautiful couple, and their wedding was nothing short of stunning. The day was extremely warm, but seeing as the temperature reached 37C on our own wedding day, we knew we … More Have you visited Roseville Estate?
When it comes to French fries, I imagine a lot of people would argue that homemade is the best kind. And, understandably so; a lot of foods are often the best tasting when they’re made by our hands as opposed to a machine in a factory, and many of us tend to appreciate food to … More French Fry showdown: which brand reigns supreme?
As much as my husband and I enjoy The Keg, we try not to frequent it too often because it is on the pricier side. That being said, we promised each other back in May that we would go out for dinner to celebrate our birthdays – seeing as we are now almost entering July, … More What’s your go-to order from The Keg?
If you play contact sports or know someone who does, there is a strong probability you have heard of KT Tape. I know plenty of people who use it, two of my closest friends included, who are also my rugby teammates, and I have observed that folks who use KT Tape tend to stay loyal … More Is KT Tape worth the hype?
I’ve come to realize that, in the past, I have written a post addressing a movie or television series I’ve recently started, in which I state I will come back in the future and provide you with an update. There have been a number of instances in which I have failed to circle back. If … More An honest update of “What We Do in the Shadows”
Witty, strange and demented humour has always been a tremendous passion of mine. I get my sense of humour from my father, undoubtedly, and I am grateful to have been bestowed this blessing. The nuttier, the better, in my opinion. I’ve been wanting to find a new television series to watch because I’ve rewatched the … More Here’s why “What We Do in the Shadows” should be your next watch
I haven’t exactly kept my love for McDonald’s a secret here on my blog, and I’m certainly not going to pretend that I am not an avid fan. The only person I may make this exception for and lie about my McDonald’s preferences to is my mother, and I know she will read this, so … More McDonald’s Birthday Cake McFlurry: yay or nay?
When it comes to fast food, McDonald’s is normally my go-to. I always order a McDouble with bacon and a six-piece chicken nugget with hot mustard, and it positively slaps each and every time. Sadly, McDonald’s is not available via DoorDash, so this past Sunday, I decided to order from A&W for what I believe … More A&W: Yay or nay?
I’ve really been riding the dog theme as of late, in the slim chance you didn’t notice yourself, and today’s post will continue this trope. If you don’t have a dog, I do apologize for the lack of relatable material. If you do have a dog, I sincerely hope these past few posts have been … More Looking for some higher-quality dog treats? Look no further
I had a pair of Crocs for quite a few years when I was younger. I wore them religiously, and while I’m not entirely sure what happened to them, I think perhaps they were worn out or a dog got a piece of them. I never got another pair after these ones were destroyed, but … More Need some shoes? Get yourself a pair of Crocs
As strongly as I detest the scent of BioFreeze, I really am rather grateful for the product. It has been my saving grace on more than one occasion, and, during the rugby season, it’s on my body more often than not. In case you’re unfamiliar with it, BioFreeze is effective in terms of calming down … More BioFreeze patches: yay or nay?
I haven’t exactly kept my return to rugby after a ten-year hiatus a secret here on my blog, but allow me to remind you in the unlikely event you have forgotten. I played for roughly six years, starting in high school and playing for a couple of years after that, stopped for about ten years, … More Looking for some sports gear? Look no further than Iroqit
Before anyone decides to judge me for dressing my dog in a onesie, please hear me out. If you read yesterday’s post, you will know that our dog, Lenny, was recently hit on the road by a trailer; the incident was entirely her fault, not to sound too harsh, but we are extremely fortunate and … More Looking for a dog onesie? Look no further
I suspect most people who possess taste buds have been to Montana’s at least once in their lives. I don’t think it is an exclusively Canadian restaurant chain, but, in the instance it is, I do offer my sincerest apologies to my American neighbours; without sounding too harsh, you’re missing out. I don’t go to … More What is your go-to Montana’s order?
Despite how frequently I rewatch the same shows and series, every now and then, I am inspired to watch something new and, therefore, different. This instance of variety doesn’t occur terribly often, but when it does, I do my best to lean into this curiosity and allow myself to tune into something new and foreign. … More Have you seen “Alexander: The Making of a God”?
This past Sunday, Blaine and I were trying to determine where to go for dinner. We came to the realization that we hadn’t been for dinner together in quite a while and, therefore, should arguably do so again; we narrowed our options down and eventually settled on a restaurant we haven’t enjoyed for a little … More Have you been to Symposium in Brantford?
As reluctant as I am to admit it because, quite honestly, I don’t want it to be over yet, I am currently reading the final installment in Sarah J. Maas’ A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) series. The fifth text, titled “A Court of Silver Flames,” actually took me by surprise at its start … More ACOTAR series: An epic ending
If I could time travel and had the opportunity to visit and tell my teenage self that I would develop an appreciation for history in the near future, I think I would have popped myself square in the teeth, without hesitation. When I was younger, I positively despised anything historical (that’s a bold assertion, but … More “Secrets of the Saqqara Tomb”: An enthralling watch
If you’re a reader to any extent, there is a strong probability you have heard of a book titled ‘A Court of Thorns and Roses’ (ACOTAR) by Sarah J. Maas. ACOTAR is the first of five novels in the entire series, and upon hearing how bloody good ACOTAR is from multiple people and sources, I … More This is why ‘A Court of Thorns and Roses’ is so damn good
I’m trying to distance myself from cleaners that contain a lot of harsh chemicals and additives. Having Lyme disease, my body is far more sensitive to toxins than it used to be, so while I’ve never really had to pay much attention to the ingredients in most things, let alone cleaning products, I am now … More Method Glass Cleaner Spray vs Windex: which reigns supreme?
If you follow my blog in any capacity, it is no secret that my husband and I thoroughly enjoy watching true crime documentaries. We specifically enjoy the Netflix American Murder documentary series, and I believe we have seen all of them to date. We are almost finished watching the most recent release depicting the tragic … More True crime documentaries: helpful or hurtful?
Now that my husband and I are able to reap the benefits of an Amazon Prime partnership with DoorDash (if you have a Prime account, you’re able to get a year’s worth of free delivery for any order using DoorDash – click here to learn more), we decided to put it to use this past … More Tired of McDonald’s? Try Popeyes
If you asked me ten years ago to watch a historical documentary about the Roman Empire, I arguably would have told you to go and pound salt. When I was younger, I was not, in any manner whatsoever, interested in history; I found it boring beyond comprehension, and I never really found it terribly engaging. … More Is Netflix’s Roman Empire worth watching?
Having Lyme disease, I have to be careful when it comes to cleaning products. I have a bit of a heightened sensitivity to certain ingredients in common cleaners that has developed after being diagnosed with Lyme; I never used to have any sort of issue with any product in the past. As annoying as it … More Looking for an all-purpose cleaner? Look no further
This might upset some people, but I’ve never been a tremendous fan of Doritos. They’re decent in terms of taste, but I’ve never found them to be particularly amazing, and I would rather eat Miss Vickie’s over Doritos any day. My husband, on the other hand, is an absolute feign for Doritos, specifically the Bold … More Doritos Collisions: yay or nay?
I am infinitely grateful to my mom and dad for introducing me to classic rock music from a pretty young age. They exposed me to other genres, too, like country and soft rock, but classic rock was almost always playing in our home every Sunday morning while we ate breakfast together as a family. It’s … More If you’re an Eagles fan, read this
It seems as though every now and then a book series comes along that snags a spot amongst some of the best of all time. Oftentimes the series in question is of the fantasy genre, which I’m perfectly happy with seeing as fantasy and fiction writing are some of my favourites. I had been seeing … More ‘A Court of Thorns and Roses’: is it worth the hype?
