If at any given point in your life you’ve had to make invitations, business cards, or thank you notes, there is a strong probability you’ve heard of both Vistaprint and Shutterfly. Arguably two of the biggest names in the printing game, both of these companies are top-tier in terms of recognition and branding, and the … More Vistaprint versus Shutterfly: Which is better?
With Halloween just around the corner, it is probable that quite a few of us are stressing out a wee bit over a lack of a costume to celebrate this phenomenal occasion. Halloween costumes can be tricky because, speaking from experience, it can be rather challenging to come up with a creative and unique idea … More Need some Halloween costume ideas for couples?

After yesterday’s post, I thought it would make sense to provide all of you with a recipe to make with an air fryer. Seeing as I praised and applauded an air fryer as a cooking tool for the duration of yesterday’s post, I realized today that folks might be questioning what exactly to create in … More Here’s how to make pizza in an air fryer
I’ve had my eyes on an air fryer ever since Blaine and I moved into our home about four months ago. I figured I could ask for one for Christmas, or wait until one comes on sale, and to be honest, I forgot about getting one for a little while. That is, until I saw … More Yes, you really do need an air fryer
Allow me to state that yes, I am entirely aware that Pacific Rim is not in any way, shape or form a recent movie, and yes, I am aware that I am incredibly delayed in watching it. Now that we’ve gotten those discrepancies out of the way, let’s continue. I should probably mention that I’m … More Have you seen ‘Pacific Rim’?
After writing a post about a similar topic the other day, I thought it might be useful for me to delve into detail regarding the films I listed as some of my all-time favourite horror movies. I can’t remember just how many I listed, but there were quite a few, and for the sake of … More What are your go-to scary movies?
In case you read the title of this post and thought to yourself, what in the hell is PCOS, please don’t worry. It isn’t exactly the most common term, although, unfortunately, it is gaining popularity in the sense that this condition is affecting more and more women. PCOS is an acronym for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. … More The reality of living with PCOS
I will be entirely transparent in admitting that it has been a hot minute since I have watched a horror movie. For a while there, I was watching one a week or so, but as of late I have fallen off of the horror movie wagon and am struggling to get back on it. I … More Looking for some scary movies to watch this Halloween? Read this
As promised, today’s post is a continuation of yesterday’s subject matter – quite random facts about life that I hope you find relatively, or at least somewhat, interesting to read. These facts are as random as they are diverse, so here’s hoping we can all learn a thing or two from this information. Again, these … More … and some more random facts about life
As we are all aware by now, I do love me some solid random facts. And, as we are all aware by now, I don’t know why I enjoy reading random-ass facts so much, but I do, so leave me alone. It’s an odd interest, I know. I’m not even entirely sure you can call … More Check out these random facts about life
I’m willing to bet that the majority of us, upon injuring ourselves, naturally reach for hydrogen peroxide to disinfect said wound. And, really, why wouldn’t we; most of us have been under the impression that hydrogen peroxide is the best agent when it comes to cleaning cuts, scrapes and more, but I am here to … More PSA: Stop using hydrogen peroxide to clean wounds
Not too long ago, I was chatting with a sister-in-law about the concept of parenting, and how it varies from family to family. Parenting in itself is universal in the sense that it aims to successfully raise children, but there are a variety of ways to do it, some more aggressive and disciplined than others. … More Stop giving unsolicited parenting advice
One of my closest friends has had a whirlwind of a summer, to say the least. Between switching jobs not once, not twice, but three times, and also packing up and moving to Toronto with very little notice, it is safe to say she is feeling a little overwhelmed, and understandably so. She encountered a … More Here is your sign to call, not text, your friends
Even if you haven’t seen a single episode of The Office, there is a strong chance you’ve heard of the show, and, really, for good reason. It was hugely successful throughout the duration of its nine seasons, and its success continues to reign long after the show itself concluded. In case you’re unfamiliar with the … More A moment of appreciation for The Office
As promised in yesterday’s post, today’s will provide anyone interested with some more common prayers I’ve learned from the Catholic faith. I mentioned this yesterday, but the fact that these prayers have a Catholic affiliation does not mean they can only be recited by Catholics. Prayer is universal, and be practiced by everyone, regardless of … More How do you pray? (part two)
I’ve always found the concept of prayer to be an interesting one, mainly because of how subjective it is depending on the person praying and their spiritual or religious beliefs. For some of us, prayer is a simple conversation with the man upstairs, once or periodically throughout the day. For others, prayer involves getting down … More How do you pray?
Cooking is something that has relevance to just about all of us. Whether you’re cooking for yourself or have someone in your life who consistently cooks for you, the process of preparing food for consumption is a relatively universal one, and while most of us dabble in it in one way or another, we may … More Check out these cooking hacks
In case you’re unaware, this weekend happens to be Thanksgiving, a time of year in which we often gather with family and friends and acknowledge all of the things we are grateful for. Arguably, when most of us contemplate what it is we are grateful for, things like food, water and shelter come to mind, … More What are you thankful for?
It is arguable that when most of us hear the phrases ‘body image’ or ‘self-esteem’, our minds typically wander in the direction of fathoming women, or a woman. We associate issues with confidence and how we perceive our bodies predominately with the female sex because we have been socially conditioned to affiliate these problems with … More Why do we continue to ignore male self-esteem issues?
Earlier this week, I met up with a friend of mine to go for dinner. We originally wanted to have sushi, but after calling two locations in Brantford and not having much luck, we figured we were going to have to get a rain check on the sushi and settle for something else in the … More If you like sushi, read this
I’m not someone who uses face masks to the extent I arguably should. Masks are great for your skin for a wide variety of reasons, and different masks offer different benefits. Generally speaking, any time I do happen to make use of a face mask, it’s for my acne, acne scars and pigmentation, so I … More Looking for a new face mask? Read this
I’ve been vaping for a couple of years now. I originally bought a vape in hopes of it allowing me to cut back on how many cigarettes I smoke in a given day, and I do believe it has helped me to cut back a bit. Perhaps not as much as I would like, but … More What is your go-to vape flavour?
I had heard about Jeffrey Dahmer prior to watching Netflix’s new release, ‘Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story’, but I didn’t necessarily understand the scope of his crimes and the atrocious acts he committed until I tuned into the series. I knew he was an American serial killer, but that was about it, and the more … More Have you seen Netflix’s ‘Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story’?
Blaine, my husband, is an avid sports fan. He always has been, to the best of my knowledge, and he’s been playing hockey and baseball since he was a wee guy. Blaine actually wanted to become a sports broadcaster. Ultimately, life took him in a different direction, but if there is anyone capable of doing … More Here’s why you should watch any ‘Untold’ series on Netflix
It’s fall, so you can bet your candle apple ass that apple pie is next up on the food roster. Apple pie is splendid any time of year, however, it does hit different once fall arrives. There’s nothing like curling up with a hot slice of apple pie in a cozy blanket, staring out the … More Here’s how to make some wicked apple pie this Autumn
One of the last times I made a trip to Costco, I came across a product in their snack section that caught my interest. I spotted some fruit bars, and because so many of these types of items contain a lot more than you’re anticipating (like excess sugar), I always check out the ingredients. I … More Looking for a healthy snack? Read this
As of late, Duolingo has somewhat taken the language world by storm. If you haven’t heard of it, not to worry – I’ll fill you in to the best of my ability. I just heard about this app a few months ago, and because I’ve always to be able to speak Spanish to be able … More Have you tried Duolingo?
It would be fair to speculate that when a lot of us think about Vikings, and the Viking era, scenes of brutality, violence, pillaging and raiding come to mind. And, to be fair, this is factual speculation in the sense that the Vikings can be described with the terms mentioned in the former sentence. As … More Can we talk about how brilliant the Vikings were?
For folks that grew up in the late 80s and 90s, the name Winona Ryder arguably rings a bell. For younger generations, I’m not if any recognition of the name would occur if it weren’t for the hit television series Stranger Things, but at least she’s gaining some momentum amongst the youngins. I knew of … More Let’s hear it for Winona Ryder
This past Sunday, Blaine and I did some small-scale entertaining in our home. Well, to be honest, I did the majority of the entertaining, but Blaine was present, so I suppose he gets some recognition. We had Blaine’s parents over for dinner, and it marked the first occasion on which I prepared dinner for someone … More Make this for your next dinner
