This probably tops my list if I’m ever craving some sort of Asian comfort food. The tanginess is mixed with the perfect amount of sweetness plus a nice spicy kick. My mouth is watering as I type this…..so here ya go! *Side note: I love my rice extra saucy so I usually make a double portion […]

STRENGTH.
Another year. Another 365 minus 1 day of learning from the beautifully-wild-forever-testing-never-a-dull-moment School of Life. As the end of the year slowly creeps up, a mental recap of my 2015 has brought with it some big emotions of accomplishment AND defeat. While some goals were reached after A LOT of perseverance and unrelenting hard work, others didn’t produce the […]
Crispy Kabocha Croquettes
I have to admit, I really hate saying goodbye to summer. But as much as I dread fall in Raincouver, I do love the beautiful colours of this season and the thing I secretly look forward to are hearty recipes made with pumpkins + squash. Thai Butternut Squash soup is so comforting on a cold, […]
The Journey to Love
L-O-V-E A seemingly simple word, yet complicated and challenging to manifest. A concept many of us daydream about, yet struggle to attain outside of our own vivacious fantasies. A gift we wholeheartedly give and receive from birth, but somehow that childhood innocence disappears as we get older and our expectation of true love resembles the […]
Total Body Rejuvenation at the Whistler Scandinave Spa
It’s been a super soggy and gloomy winter in BC, and as much as I thought not having to bundle up like a mummy to go out in minus 30 arctic weather (like my Ontario lovelies) would make me more gung-ho to be out and about, the reality is this west coast rain has turned […]
Silky Smooth Chocolate Avocado Mousse
Are you guilty of having a sweet tooth? I’ve always been a savoury kinda gal, but ever since the holidays and giving in to one too many sweet treats at various parties and get-togethers I’m finding that I’m going through a bit of a sugar withdrawal. Recent research is suggesting that SUGAR is the new tobacco, […]

Guilt-Free No-Bake Chocolate Snowballs
I don’t know about you, but when the holiday season rolls around, sweets…and LOTS of it…seem to somehow find their way into my tummy. Generally I have a fortress of self-control and can withhold from indulging, but this time of year makes it extremely hard to resist, even though I know how addicting that sugary tastiness is and that my […]
Helping modern families reduce the 2 BIGGEST stressors in growing a family is what my husband and I are incredibly passionate about.
