While shopping the other day, I spotted a sign for OPI polishes at 3/$10 in the nail salon. I can’t turn down a sale on nail polish so started rummaging through the bottles to find some I don’t own. Most were reds, I am fussy about red polishes as many don’t suit my skin tone […]
Get More Done With SamePage.io
I work for a non-profit where we are in different offices and used to constantly email each other large files, send multiple emails to arrange meetings, and had other issues that caused us to be unproductive and waste time just waiting for others. Due to the nature of the work and trying to save costs, […]
Win a $25 iTunes Gift Card When You Tell Us Your Fave Workout Song!
The nicer weather means actually spending some time outside, rather than just hurrying to the car or bus and back. One of my goals for 2015 was to walk to more places and get moving.

How Hard Is It To Make a Tea Latte Starbucks?
Starbucks and I have a love hate relationship. Since I drink very little coffee and he is a Tim Hortons addict, I don’t go often. I can get tea anywhere and they dumped Tazo for Teavana. Tazo Awake tea rocks and Teavana took over Teaopia and got rid of all of my favourite teas so […]
Do You Have House Rules?
While watching TV the other day, an IKEA commercial caught my eye (well, more my ear, but whatever). They were talking about House Rules and how everyone has them. I laughed at the one about the cup, because his parents have some cups I would never drink from but remind him of childhood so he […]
