It seems to me as though just about any woman I speak to as of late, with whom I have a somewhat personal connection, has low iron. I reference the personal connection aspect because I’m not exactly approaching strangers on the street and demanding to know their iron levels. Men can also be low in … More Struggling with low iron?

If you own a cat, or have at some point in your life, you’re arguably aware of the fact that some of them could play for hours on end and still wish to frolic more, whereas others are content to relax and not do a whole lot of moving. In our home, we have two … More Busy cat? Read this
While I am struggling to pinpoint the exact date, I believe it was last summer that I started using DoorDash. I have an Amazon Prime account, and for a short while, Amazon and DoorDash teamed up to form a partnership of sorts; if you had a Prime membership, you were able to sign up for … More DoorDash: yay or nay?
I’ve never really been someone who deals with drastically dry skin, thankfully, on any part of my body. Sure, my lips get chapped when it’s extremely cold outside, and sometimes my hands start to resemble a reptile, but for the most part, I’m relatively well moisturized without having to use moisturizer itself. My cuticles, on … More Dry, cracked cuticles? Read this
In our home, we have a sort of parallel between our two cats. Lionel is a tuxedo cat, and this year he will turn 12, which is hard to believe; our other cat, Timmy, is orange through and through, and he is two. As much as Timmy enjoys Lionel’s company, I don’t believe Lionel feels … More Trying to occupy a busy cat? Get them this toy
I think one could consider the state of my feet a bit of a paradox, in a sense. On the one hand, my feet are almost always freezing cold, to the point that if I happen to brush up against Blaine’s leg in bed, he actually yelps. On the other hand, despite my feet having … More Sweaty feet? Try these socks
If you read the word ‘croptuck’ and thought to yourself, ‘What in the fuck is that?‘, please don’t be alarmed, because I had the same reaction when I first stumbled across the term. I wasn’t sure if it was a sort of industrial tool or something along those lines, so when I discovered that a … More Baggy sweater? Try a croptuck
I have had a borderline obsession with hoodies since I was a child, and you can check with my mom if you don’t believe me. It got to a point that the closet in the office in my childhood home became the designated hoodie closet, and my mom would force me to go through them … More Drowning in sweaters? Get yourself a ‘Hoodie Hanger’
My dad has worn sunglasses for as long as I can remember. I should stipulate, however, that I am not referring to your typical, general sunglasses style. Rather, being a farmer, he has always worn sunglasses that double as safety glasses, hence why they’re always on his head. Always. A few years ago now, my … More Trouble with driving at night?

In yesterday’s post discussing earwax and what to do if you find yourself in the midst of a buildup, I mentioned that I recently purchased an earwax-cleaning device via Amazon. It arrived, and now that I’ve had a chance to test it out, I figured I would share my findings with all of you. The … More Do ear scope cleaners actually work?
Earwax isn’t exactly something most of us have a strong yearning to chat about, and understandably so. It’s a wee bit gross, despite all of us having it, and while it is a very natural thing to occur within an ear, it can become problematic if a buildup occurs and it begins to block the … More Having trouble hearing? It could be a wax buildup
While I don’t want to wrongly assume, I think that hair flyaways are an issue that is more relevant to women than they are to men. That is not to say that men can’t get frustrated with flyaway hairs surrounding their face, because I’m sure it’s happened to some poor bloke out there; generally speaking, … More Tired of unruly flyaways? Read this
When I was a child, I was very much under the impression that eating pasta for three meals daily was more than reasonable, arguably because I had an obsession with pasta that could rival the most patriotic of Italians. For context, I’m Hungarian, Dutch and Irish, so I’m not entirely sure where my love for … More Looking to add more fibre to your diet? Consider this pasta
When it comes to animals, most folks tend to associate ‘playing’ with dogs, but anyone out there who is the proud owner of a cat can attest to the fact that cats, much like dogs, enjoy playing. I suppose I would say that dogs perhaps tend to play more often than cats do in a … More Trying to entertain your cat? Read this
While I am unable to recall the exact age I was when I got my ears pierced, I think I was somewhere around the age of ten. My mom took me to Claire’s (lol) in our local mall to get the job done, and I had a piercing in each ear for many years. When … More Pierce your ears at home with this neat little tool
I truly pity people with allergies and sensitivities to fragrance. I know a few people who are seriously affected by perfumes and body sprays; because I am someone who enjoys drowning myself in all things pleasant-smelling, I genuinely feel sorry for folks who aren’t able to dabble in the fragrance realm. They’re arguably better off … More Looking for a lighter signature scent? Look no further
Now that I am, thankfully, fully back into the swing of reading on a daily basis, I’ve come to realize the struggle of trying to read, using minimal light, in an attempt to refrain from waking my husband up as he sleeps beside me. The man can sleep through just about anything, to be fair, … More Looking for a reading light? Look no further
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?
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
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?

I rarely use Amazon on a desktop, and, if I had to guess, I would wager most folks are like me in this regard and normally use Amazon through their phone as opposed to a computer. It isn’t at all a matter of me having an issue with using the site on a computer; rather, … More If you use Amazon Prime, read this
I am not someone who particularly enjoys cleaning. Sure, there are some jobs I prefer over others, but in general, I would rather be spending my time doing something aside from dusting or scrubbing flecks of shit off of my toilet bowl. I consider myself fortunate in the sense that I do not live in … More Tired of scrubbing your shower? Read this
I believe I have mentioned before that I like to reference Buzzfeed articles from time to time in an attempt to keep up with what are, supposedly, unbelievably great products. I’ve managed to collect a few items over the years from these sorts of articles that have proven to be excellent purchases, hence why I … More If you like spice, you need this oil
I have come to realize that I am somewhat peculiar in terms of my snacking preferences. At least, I think so; in the evening, before I go to bed, I like to enjoy a wee snacky snack, and I look forward to it daily. However, the reason I say my snacking tendencies are a little … More Craving a snack that checks all the boxes? Read this
In lieu of yesterday’s post discussing knotty hair and how irritating it is to deal with, today’s will provide you with a solution to the endless battle of attempting to drag a comb through your locks without it snagging painfully. I was reading a Buzzfeed article listing some of Amazon’s best-selling products, and because I’ve … More This brush might change your life
I occasionally find myself perusing through random Amazon items when I’m high, as reluctant as I am to admit it. I have absolutely no inclination as to why this is a thing, but when I’m high, I enjoy online shopping, and once or twice I may or may not have ordered items that are entirely … More Ceiling fan … filters?!
I drink a borderline inconceivable amount of water in a day, and if you don’t believe me when I tell you how much, I won’t be disheartened as most people, including my former doctor, don’t. I drink two to four gallons of water a day. How do I know this? My water bottle holds one … More Feeling parched? Try this for a hydration boost
I have never used pre-workout at any point in my life with the exception of this past summer. Granted, I’ve always been familiar with it and what it does, but I never really saw a reason for me to use it personally. Playing rugby this past summer certainly shifted my perspective toward pre-workout, however. Back … More Looking for some pre-workout? Try this
I am an avid Amazon user, and while some folks might judge me because of that, I’m really not terribly concerned; I shop locally whenever I can, but as a matter of convenience and with two working adults in one household, sometimes Amazon comes in clutch. I’ve had mostly pleasant experiences with Amazon delivery drivers, … More How are your experiences with Amazon delivery drivers?
The issue of not being able to fall asleep is a widespread and incredibly frustrating one. There are few things worse than lying in bed, wide awake, while the clock ticks away, serving as a stark reminder that you have to be awake in a matter of hours without getting any sleep.
