I recently bought Pumpkin Spiced Baileys - it is freakin' delicious with coffee, chai tea or on ice. It's available at the BCL for $31.50. Worth it. [...]

60 Days: No phone. No computer. No TV. No Radio. No Electronics, whatsoever. And then what...?
I never really understood what meditation really was until I tried it for myself and began to reap the benefits. It sounded so simple - take five/ten minutes, close your eyes, breathe and clear your mind. Easy enough, right? Not quite. I tried and couldn't even go one full minute before my mind started wandering. [...]

Ah, Carly Halliday! I met this little nugget back on the first day of Kindergarten in Maplewood Elementary School. We became friends instantly. I remember going to her house for sleepovers every so often and never making it through the night (she stayed up really late and I have always been a grandma). As you'll [...]
Have you ever felt nostalgic in a place you've never been to before? I have, and it was the oddest sensation. I couldn't figure out if it was the rich history or the fact that I've seen many of the sights in London in movies and photos from others' travels. I felt like I had [...]

Here are five of my fav Vancouver activities in Spring! Camping Okay, so this may just be the thing I'm MOST excited for! Vancouver's core and close surrounding areas don't [...]
Jessie freakin' Baker. Shits about to get REAL. I met Jessie in the most awkward, intimidating and competitive situation - on a television show called.... The Bachelor. Jessie was the only person on set who I felt comfortable being 100% myself, vulnerable, goofy and upset in front of. In a situation where you're unsure of [...]
My wish is for you. You have been dealt a hand most would have folded. Your courage is boundless, your strength unremitting. In the eyes of fear you stare back with a grimace that alludes to the known of your triumph. "Giving up" has never been an option. For the pain you [...]
