Are you familiar with Valhalla?

I have no shame in admitting I’m a wee bit obsessed with anything medieval or Viking. I realize these two facets are rather different in what they contain regarding historical events and figures, but they’re two areas of history that get me going. I’ve watched just about every medieval/Viking television series and movie in existence, … More Are you familiar with Valhalla?

Looking for some wireless headphones? Read this

Allow me to begin this post by stating if you’re debating whether or not to spend the money and invest in a pair of Airpods for yourself, don’t. I’m saying this because I, like many others, fell victim to Airpods when they first came out and purchased them hurriedly because they were the wireless headphones … More Looking for some wireless headphones?

Have you heard of the ‘let them’ theory?

I figure it is usually best to take any information gained via social media with a grain of salt. If sources and references are provided alongside an educational social media post, that’s wonderful; the majority of things we see on social media platforms, however, in an educational context, are often presented without any background information, … More Have you heard of the ‘let them’ theory?

Why aren’t we talking about men’s mental health?

Mental health is something I’ve been rather passionate about for many years now. Given I experience mental illness, as do some of my family members and friends, mental health and its advocacy are of tremendous significance to me, and considering the current state of the world, I feel as though it is something that should … More Why aren’t we talking about men’s mental health?

Here is how to determine if you’re in the presence of something supernatural

I am not a ghost hunter, although I probably would enjoy being one rather thoroughly. I’m not a supernatural expert, nor am I a demonologist; rather, I am someone who takes tremendous interest in things beyond our world, or human form, and because I’ve sustained this interest for several years, I’ve come to learn a … More Here is how to determine if you’re in the presence of something supernatural

Read this to learn how to make homemade chocolate pie

This past Thursday, Blaine and I celebrated his 29th birthday. He isn’t exactly the type to willingly engage in celebratory birthday activities, so our festivities were pretty low-key, just as he prefers. Blaine has a sweet tooth but can be picky with his desserts. He is an avid fan of his grandmother’s chocolate pie, and … More Read this to learn how to make homemade chocolate pie

Hells Bells – the ultimate AC/DC tribute band

This past weekend, Blaine and I attended an AC/DC tribute concert at the Sanderson Centre in Brantford, Ontario. The band in question calls themselves Hells Bells, and they’re actually the longest-running AC/DC tribute band in the world, according to their website. The band came together in Toronto in 1994. If you’re a fan of AC/DC, … More Hells Bells – the ultimate AC/DC tribute band

Can we stop ruining television series with poor writing?

There are few things in this world that are worse than absolutely destroying a television series with poor writing. Unless you consider ruining a series with poor writing that was, up until a certain point, written exceptionally well. I’m willing to bet just about everyone could name a series that became an unfortunate victim of … More Can we stop ruining television series with poor writing?

Here is how to make some homemade jalapeno poppers

I positively love jalapeno poppers. They’re tasty as hell and offer a delectable combination of crunch, courtesy of their breading, and creaminess, courtesy of their cheese-filled centre. Granted, you don’t know how hot they’re going to be until you bite into one, but that’s part of the experience. I cannot help but think of my … More Here is how to make some homemade jalapeno poppers
