August 6, 2025

As wonderful as summer gatherings are, sometimes, trying to determine what sort of dish you’ll be bringing to the festivity in question is more complicated than the plot of Game of Thrones. You want to pick something that appeals to the masses, but without said dish being overdone, or redundant; by the time you figure … More How about some ‘Mom’s Molasses Ham and Beans’ for your next summer cookout?

The importance of pushing our comfortability

August 4, 2025

Anyone who identifies as a creature of habit or routine arguably experiences rather aggressive anxiety toward the notion of changing things up, myself included. For those of us who find comfort in repetition and predictability, the idea of change can be a daunting one. But, despite the fear associated with change, change is not something … More The importance of pushing our comfortability

July 31, 2025

Weeknight dinners can be a struggle for a lot of people. Between work, kids, extracurriculars and more, finding the time to not only prep but furthermore prepare a well-rounded, fulfilling meal on a weeknight can seem almost impossible. I don’t yet have children of my own, but with the farm and rugby, trying to find … More Here’s how to make some easy Sausage and Rice Bowls

July 25, 2025

The Appalachian Mountains, according to britannica.com, are a “… great highland system of North America, the eastern counterpart of the Rocky Mountains.

Here’s your sign to visit Kelseys Original Roadhouse

July 24, 2025

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

Spend time with your loved ones while they’re still here

July 20, 2025

I have always enjoyed spending time with my parents. I am very close with my family, perhaps unusually so; when I was still living with my parents prior to getting married, we would eat lunch and dinner together almost every day. I acknowledge how this is not the norm, especially with most families these days … More Spend time with your loved ones while they’re still here

Two effective phrases to use when dealing with a narcissist

July 18, 2025

My grandmother taught me at a very young age to always abstain from using the word hate. She told me it is a harsh and cruel word that should not be used to describe one’s feelings toward anything, and while I do try my best to abide by her teachings, there are absolutely some things … More Two effective phrases to use when dealing with a narcissist

Hungry? Some Folded Breakfast Enchiladas might help

July 16, 2025

Eggs are, in my own humble opinion, a vastly underappreciated food. Not only are they considered staple ingredients in all sorts of baked goods and dishes, but there are a hell of a lot of different ways you can eat a plain egg. Whether your preference is scrambled, over-easy, poached or hard/soft boiled, eggs are … More Hungry? Some Folded Breakfast Enchiladas might help

I suppose I should stipulate that I’m rather passionate about the issue we will be discussing in this post because of my educational background. I graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Honours English as well as a post-graduate certification in public relations; if you aren’t able to deduce what I’m hinting at with my background, … More Do your brain a favour and stop using ChatGBT

I would wager that one in every three women could read the title of today’s post and think to themselves, Yup, sounds about right, without even needing to read the content. That isn’t to say that men might not also think the same thing upon reading today’s title; however, speaking realistically, women are mistreated and … More Recognizing hypocrisy in the mental health realm
