    Earth Balance Healthy Spring Snack #Giveaway

    May 9, 2015 - By 

    Up until fairly recently I had never heard of the Healthy Shopper. I heard about them about one year ago when a friend Margarita Ibbott at DownshiftingPro started trying some. This past month Health Shopper sent me two new snacks and I agreed to try them with the kids and post a quick giveaway. One of my lucky Canadian readers can win one package of Earth Balance P.B. Popps, a delicious popcorn coated with oats and cuddled in a peanut butter cluster that make a yummy snack.  These crunchy nuggets are Non-GMO, Vegan, Dairy and Gluten-Free and have 0g trans fats.…

    We had a PD day here last week so it was the perfect time to unbox our brand new Breville No Mess Waffle Maker and put it to the test. I mean you can’t have waffles just any day of the week. They are a special breakfast or brunch treat. So you simply must have a brilliant occasion to indulge. Waffles are perfect for a  weekend, for instance, or a PD Day. A birthday or Mother’s Day. This gorgeous little number would be beautiful as a gift for Mother’s Day. You can gift it to your Mom, unbox it and make her…

    Bona’s Hawaii Sweepstakes and The Best Hardwood Floor Products #Giveaway: Several Ways to Win

    April 4, 2015 - By 

    One of my favourite features in our home is the hardwood flooring. I love hardwood. Let me rephrase that. I love hardwood flooring that is kept clean and shiny and is not completely scratched up by kids, or pets or wear and tear. So that’s the rub so to speak. Hardwood is only as good as the products you use to care for it, and the care you take with it. I confess that I see every little scratch in my hardwood and I obsess over that. Hardwood just looks better when it is well maintained. I am always on…

    Spring is Officially Here #LoveHallmarkCA #Giveaway

    March 19, 2015 - By 

    Spring has arrived at long last and it’s time to lighten up the clothing, clear away the winter drearies and get decorating for Easter! The garden and yard are ready to be tamed and spring cleaning is in full swing in many places. I’ve had a decent winter, even though the cold threatened to make me grumpy many times. We went away and took a family cruise at New Years and that helped us to relax for a week, before we returned to a snowy slippery drive back home down the 401. We were able to hunker down and plow…

    Laser Pegs Ultimate Construction Toy #Giveaway

    February 25, 2015 - By 

    I am so excited to share this toy with all of you. Laser Pegs is a brand that I first learned about during Sweet Suite, which is a party that happened at the same time as a New York Blogging conference I attended back a couple of years ago. I remember being really interested in this one because it was a light up construction toy that makes science, technology, engineering and math totally fun for all ages and genders. Anyways, back then a couple of years ago I think the brand had just a few smaller sets on the market.…

    Maple Leaf Monster Jam Tour 2015 Giveaway #Ldnont

    February 11, 2015 - By 

    Maple Leaf Monster Jam is my youngest daughter’s favourite annual family show. Why? Because Maple Leaf Monster Jam arrives every year around March, the time of her birthday. Every year she goes with her father and sometimes the rest of us too, and we enjoy the show together. But in years gone by, several special years in a row, it was just Ainsley and Dad. A Special London Event So it’s kind of a dad and daughter date. That makes her happy and it’s kind of memorable for both of them. Together, they revel in the crazy antics of Maple…
