My mom has been trying to get to theatres to see Oppenheimer since it was first released a few weeks back. We are in our busy season on the farm, meaning it can be difficult to get away, even for a couple of hours to see a movie, so despite a few attempts to formulate … More Oppenheimer: an honest review
I genuinely feel as though casseroles are the subject of a tremendous amount of unwarranted scrutiny. For whatever reason, a lot of us fail to be overly keen toward the concept of ingesting a casserole of some sort, but I cannot fathom or determine why – casseroles are the shit, and you can make a … More Check out this casserole
As per yesterday’s post, today is a continuation of the topic of collagen and whether or not you should incorporate it into your daily supplement routine. I’m not a doctor by any means, nor am I a medical expert, so be sure to do your own research and consult with your family doctor prior to … More Here are some benefits collagen offers
As per my mother’s recommendation, I’ve been taking collagen for probably over a year now. I was aware that collagen is a fantastic supplement to take to promote hair, nail and skin health, but that was the extent of my collagen knowledge at the time I first started using it. I’ve been pleasantly surprised to … More Should you be using collagen?
I mean, to answer my own question I proposed in my title and really keep this post to the barest minimum, yes, I do think comedy can go too far, depending on the subject matter at hand. But, I do think we can delve into the topic a little further, so stick around yet, if … More Can comedy go too far?
Anyone who has, to any extent, followed celebrity tabloids will absolutely recognize and hopefully chuckle at my title. When my sister and I were younger, we were genuinely obsessed with celebrity tabloids (much to my mother’s dismay), and we would beg her to buy us one whenever we accompanied her on her grocery runs. I … More Celebrities: they’re just like us! (but not really)
Blaine and I don’t dabble in a whole lot of entertaining, but the odd time we do, I like to ensure I make a meal that not only (hopefully) pleases everyone’s tastebuds, but furthermore, enables guests to feel at ease and comfort. By that I mean I don’t want to prepare something ridiculously fancy, but … More Make this for your next dinner
Stress is, unfortunately, something that has relevance to just about each and every one of us in one way or another throughout our adult years. Varying in intensity, yes, and coming from a variety of different mediums, sure, but simply put, none of us are immune to experiencing stress, with the exception of someone positively … More Stressed about how to de-stress? Read this
During one of the last storms we had, a swing of sorts blew out of one of the trees on the property Blaine and I live on. The swing in question has seen better days – I’m pretty sure it was composed using nothing but ratchet straps, twine and sticks, but considering we have absolutely … More Give in to your inner child
Come summertime, it can be difficult trying to ensure you’re consuming enough water and electrolytes when you’re working outside in the heat. We know maintaining hydration and electrolyte balance is significant when you’re sweating excessively, but a lot of us are unaware of how to go about getting these electrolytes back into our bodies, and … More Need an energy boost? Try Nuun Sport
I really tried to come up with a better title than the one you see, and I was hoping to make use of some alliteration. As it turns out, however, there aren’t too many adjectives that begin with w, let alone ones that are applicable to constructing a title, so this is the best we … More Understanding the willing Wolverine
I should arguably clarify my title and make mention of the fact that when I say Wolverine, I mean the animal, not the character Hugh Jackman plays in X-Men. Not to say Wolverine from X-Men isn’t an impressive, admirable lad – he is, and I would be curious to see a fight between him and … More How well do you know Wolverines?
Some days I truly feel as though I could successfully compose an argumentative essay stating that the concept of helping others, in a general sense, is on the brink of extinction. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I firmly believe the pandemic made a lot of us either consciously or unconsciously … More When in doubt, help out
Onion rings are the shit, and anyone who says otherwise is a liar. I realize those are fighting words to start off a post, but now that I have your attention, let’s chat about these delightful things commonly known as onion rings. They’re nothing fancy or special, but they’re tasty as hell, and homemade ones … More Let’s make homemade onion rings
When I first heard of the term SIBO, I thought I was hearing things, to be honest, so not to worry if you figured your eyes were deceiving you when you read the title of today’s post. SIBO is an acronym that stands for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, and I’m about to give you the … More What the heck is SIBO?
After writing a post about the series Blaine and I have been watching called Alone, I’ve found myself more attentive to survival information and knowledge as of late. My new interest is a bit laughable, really; whilst sitting in the comfort of my own home, eating snacks and drinking coffee, I’m watching people who actually … More Could you live off the land?
If you’re into survivalist shows, you’ve probably at least heard of, if not seen the series Alone. Blaine and I started watching it a few weeks ago, and thus far, I’m really enjoying it. The season we are watching takes place in the Artic, and the premise of the game is, essentially, you’re dropped off … More Have you seen ‘Alone’?
For anyone unfamiliar with the term breakfast bowl, not to fret; I’m not even necessarily sure this term exists, but it does now thanks to my own ingenuity. A breakfast bowl is similar to a burrito bowl, but instead of containing ingredients commonly found within burritos, a breakfast bowl contains ingredients and food commonly associated … More Here’s how to make a breakfast bowl
When I was younger, I did not enjoy the taste nor texture of chicken thighs. I couldn’t tell what exactly it was about the texture and taste of this cut of chicken that set me off, but it did, and I avoided eating chicken thighs as much as I possibly could. It, understandably, used to … More Here’s how to make some baked chicken thighs
I recently had some bloodwork done, and when my doctor called me and asked me to come in for an appointment to discuss the results, I figured they weren’t great. My doctor informed me I have a rather hefty hormone imbalance (which I already knew thanks to a naturopath), and he provided me with some … More Are your hormones out of whack?
I caught wind of using vanilla extract as bug repellent a little while ago, and to be honest, I had a hard time believing it. Vanilla is arguably my favourite scent in existence, and considering it smells so sweet and lovely, I wouldn’t think it would be something that would be effective in keeping insects … More Using vanilla extract as … bug repellent?
I recently viewed a reel via Instagram depicting a middle-aged woman sharing publicly an experience she recently endured in West Vancouver, British Columbia. Her face is severely bruised and swollen, and it is evident that she is in pain. She explains how she attended a firework display and took the bus from the event to … More Heroism versus tragedy: how do we walk the line?
To reference my title, today’s post will share with you some more helpful hacks that assist in making certain things in life a wee bit simpler. To continue yesterday’s topic, I thought I would present to you some more incredibly savvy life hacks to help make some things in life a little less complicated, or … More Read this to learn how to make life easier
Hacks, in all forms, are something I can absolutely appreciate. When we come across a helpful piece of information or knowledge that relates to something we make frequent use of in our lives is one thing, but to unveil a more efficient or time-conscious method is another, and I haven’t met anyone who doesn’t enjoy … More You’re going to wish you knew these tricks sooner
While I don’t manage to make a trip out to the nearest Costco as often as I should, especially in the summer months here on the farm, I am fortunate enough to have a mom and sister who, before going to Costco for themselves, always ask me if there is anything I might need for … More Looking for a tasty treat? Look no further
Blaine and I absolutely love the original Venom movie and have watched it together more times than we can count. For anyone who hasn’t seen Venom, a brief synopsis of the plot is as follows: Eddie Brock, played by the lovely Tom Hardy, is a journalist, engaged to Anne, played by Michelle Williams, who is … More Have you seen ‘Venom: Let there be Carnage’?
This past weekend I attended a function involving my dad’s family. It was nice to see my cousins again; now that we’re older and growing up and whatnot, we don’t see each other as often as we once did. We all enjoyed a barbecue and some dessert, and one dessert option was a lovely blueberry … More Here is how to make some scrumptious blueberry cake
Yesterday’s post discussing ginseng hopefully provided anyone who read it with a firmer understanding of how exactly it is produced. I didn’t mention each and every step involved in the complete process of growing ginseng, from start to finish, but I did provide you with the gist of the method. For today’s post, I thought … More What health benefits does ginseng offer?
I recently had a tutoring session with a client I have been working with for quite a while now. My client and I, in working together for almost two years, have become good friends, despite not having the opportunity to meet in person as they are not local to me. During our last session, they … More Let’s talk about ginseng
I came to the realization that despite offering to you, my avid readers, a three-part installment pertaining to crystals and some of the most common ones, I did not, within these posts, offer any information regarding how to go about actually making use of said crystals. I mean, if you enjoy the aesthetics of crystals … More Here is how to actually use crystals
