Not sure if I’m the only one that feels this way, but I’ve never really been a big fan of pork.  I’ve always seen it as the ‘dirty white meat’. Even when I was younger, my mother, could never get me to eat it.  For instance; the beloved baby back ribs were always shot down.  The…

Growing up I was never a big fan of any type of dessert that had fruit or nuts in it. Like why would you ruin a perfectly good brownie by putting walnuts in there. But as I get older my palette is becoming a bit more sophisticated, i.e. I’m not only craving Kraft Dinner anymore. Which brings…

With NYE fast approaching I’m sure most of you have plans underway or something brewing in your mind, like maybe a certain someone that you want to plant a wet one on?!  Maybe a party you want to be seen at?  But I always thought NYE was a lot to do about nothing. You spend…

We’ve all done it. I’m not sure if it stems from habit or lack of time but every once in a while don’t you feel like you’re on autopilot when it comes to the things you eat? Just the other day I was thinking – what do I want for dinner? And without missing a…

When I was a child Christmas was pretty much my favourite time of the year.  Shiny wrapped gifts in my near future, the possibility of endless snow days, building a snowman and having fun until your sister would throw snow in your face and the fun and games would all come to a crying end….

Every week when I tackle the “what should I write about on the blog” I try and think back to a funny memory or a cute story, maybe even just something that makes me happy that I want to share. But in light of all of the senseless acts of violence that took place on Friday…

Have you ever been eating and it’s so good that you find yourself thinking: I hope this never ends? I play that game a lot!  Yes, I might be tooting my own horn but the proof is in the pudding. The problem is that sometimes the thought of getting out the cutting board and turning on…

I will be the first to admit that when it comes to scary I am NOT a fan. Examples of this: I cried during Jurassic Park, I made both my mom and sister sleep in my room after I saw the movie The Ring, and I like to sleep with my closet door closed because…

The game of life, and no not the board game, although how great would that be if “LIFE” could actually be that easy. Just a spin of the wheel and you get a great job, instant marriage to the blue or pink peg of your dreams, and then the next thing you know your car…

The Zodiac sign… Everyone loves a good horoscope now and again, but I think I err on the side of caution when it comes to those that are true “believers”. It’s like horse people (no offence) I get it horses are great, conversation over. But when it comes to horoscopes or predicting things to come, isn’t…

I woke up this morning with the song another one bites the dust playing over and over in my head. Probably because my birthday was on Friday and there is nothing like crossing another year of the list of life. It’s funny when we’re young we spend all this time thinking; I can’t wait until…

I have always been a fan of a good makeover show, they take the poor tired run down mom, slap some lipstick on her, a new hairdo and off she goes to face the world. The Today Show with Kathie Lee & Hoda is the best, Thursday am PVR, CHECK!!! But I think there needs…
