    Fun Fall Colour By Number Activity for Kids

    October 22, 2020 / No Comments

    Fall’s arrival always makes me a bit sad. Everyone here knows that summer is my favourite season, with winter following close behind. Even this year, I believe that ski season is worth celebrating. Sometimes I find that I need to look harder to find reasons to enjoy September, October and November. But, that said, I am fully aware that the reasons are there. One of the biggest, most appealing parts of the Autumn months is simply Fall colours and watching the leaves change colour. Right now, my street is a riot of colourful maple trees. That makes me happy. Celebrate Colour with Fall Colour By Numbers Activity So, I thought…

    Halloween and Fall with Hallmark Style

    October 17, 2018 /

    This post has been sponsored by Hallmark and it may contain affiliate links too. I received product for consideration and my opinion is my own. It’s almost time to get decorating for Halloween and that makes me happy. When it comes to Halloween I am a bit of a kid again. Halloween and fall go together so well. I’ve made it no secret that summer is my favourite season so when fall comes I sometimes find it hard to transition and I need something to look forward to. Halloween, Thanksgiving and my new love for Fall Camping helps me feel a bit less stressed about pools closing and beach days ending. Of…

    Nine of the Best Reasons To Love Fall Camping in Ontario

    October 16, 2018 /

    The golden leaves lit by sleepy sunrises, the rhythm of an afternoon canoe ride, followed by a brisk evening walk through lush wide open forests, and plumes of smoke swirling together as you watch the crackling campfire. Relieved of their crowds after Labour Day, a fall RV Camping experience in Ontario’s Provincial Parks will help you slow down and listen, romanced by Fall camping in Ontario. As a summer lover, I’ve never considered fall in Ontario an ideal time to travel, camp, or explore. With its long sprawling sun drenched days full of swimming, fishing, hiking and cottages, summer naturally lends itself to camping trips and travel. These days I love winter…

    October Colouring Page

    October 3, 2018 /

    Well hello there October 1st! Not even sure how that happened. The thing about October is that once October arrives you certainly can’t argue that it’s Fall. Signs of Fall are everywhere. Leaves are changing and my neighbourhood is ablaze with gorgeous maple trees in burnt oranges and reds. I have a couple of trees holding out still. If you or your kids are like me at all then perhaps welcoming October with this October Colouring Page printable will help to remember and transition to a new month. It’s fourth quarter here and the end of year and holiday season is fast approaching. Sometimes you need a little reminder to…

    Battling Cold and Flu Season $85 Get Well Kit Giveaway #ad

    This post is sponsored by Bayer. To make sure these products are right for you, always read and follow the label. Well, cold and flu season is here. Every year, it’s the same story. Despite our best efforts, most of us will be forced to admit defeat and retreat to our sofas with a healthy supply of tissues and hot liquids. Trust me I am more than familiar with this. My youngest daughter started in with coughing almost immediately when she returned to school. She battled bronchitis for weeks, and a cold as well. Naturally we all ended up with this nasty bug. This season the cough is the thing…

    Autumn Word Search

    September 15, 2017 /

    Well, so long summer. Hard for me to say that as you know. This summer was a bit of a dud in the weather department. Here’s hoping the fall months bring some lovely sunny days for a few more weeks. Here’s a quick autumn word search that will have you, or your kids enjoying a few minutes of fun. Autumn days can be fun for hikes and walks and even camping too. What’s your favourite month? For me autumn is apple picking and squash and delicious warm crockpot meals. It’s a busy time too though with back to school of course. Do you have a favourite thing about the Fall…

    Apple Pandowdy – Farm Fresh Favourites #BornOnTheFarm

    Truth be told, there’s very little I like about Fall. I am a summer gal. Summer is my happy space. Swimming and road tripping and beaches and sunny afternoons working in my outdoor office bring me JOY. Fall means back to routine and sweaters and colder temperatures. Brrr. But there are a few small pleasures even I can find in the Fall months. Apple picking. Pumpkin anything. Corn mazes, Squash. Oh and maybe Fall Boots. Fall means it’s time to get the slow cooker fired up again, because it will be on constant rotation here. It’s also time to bake again. Fall fan, or summer lover like me, your seasonal…

    October 12, 2016 /

    Halloween in the United States is the season for all things scary – particularly haunted houses. Most areas have a local haunted house, but for those looking for an extra terrifying thrill, there are many elaborate haunted houses throughout the country. Here are 5 of the best haunted houses in the United States. Terror Behind the Walls. Terror Behind the Walls is an annual haunted house that takes place at the Eastern State Penitentiary located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Can you picture that?

    Pumpkin Treats Almost Too Good To Share

    September 28, 2016 /

    I was an adult before I grew into my love for all things pumpkin. As a kid, pumpkin never appealed to me as a food, or a flavour. It was fun to carve and sometimes a treat to make pumpkin crafts, but I would never have eaten pumpkin treats.  Adulthood has some benefits and thankfully tastebuds mature sometimes. Even if you all like different things in your family, that’s okay, because some things are too good to be shared – like these pumpkin treats This roundup of beautiful pumpkin treats knocks my socks off. I probably wouldn’t have thought to put together Cranberries and Pumpkin. But these cranberry pumpkin muffins…
