Friday Favourites:
This week was a rollercoaster! Mostly in my personal energy levels, on Wednesday I was essentially useless during the day but in the evening. I got task after task after task done. So it’s been a wild ride. I feel both behind and accomplished at the exact same time. Elsa Massey @SimplyElsa Elsa has become…

Preparing for Holidays Alone
This coming weekend is Thanksgiving weekend here in Canada. The technical day is this coming Monday, the second Monday in October. And while I might feel a bit hypocritical writing this when I actually do have plans this Thanksgiving, I wasn’t expecting to, and I have spent most Thanksgiving weekends alone since I went to…

Friday Favorites: saddle shoes, travel TV, and beer
Instagram Favourites: Christina Grasso @thepouf Christina is just an Italian girl from New York. She takes absolutely incredible photos. Her eye for beauty and fashion photography is absolutely insane and she is so creative. I also love how she talks about her eating disorder and eating disorder recovery. Also, I now want saddle shoes all…

Mid-Week Procrastination: WFH, #FreeBritney, and skin care
These are back, it only took a couple weeks, but I’ve decided I miss these in the middle of the week. I love these so much, a Wednesday pick-me-up, a booster to get through the week. Also, knowing I was doing this, I didn’t publish on Saturday, so we have a week and a half…

Realistic Thanksgiving Menu: Single & Solo
Well everyone, it’s the end of September, time to wake up. In Canada, Thanksgiving is in October (oh and we did it first, do I want to do a history lesson here? Yeah let’s do it.)

This Week’s Friday Favorites: Cleaning, Nickelback, and Fall
I feel like I’m running out of time this week and this month. There’s just so much to do and so much happening and I swear 2019 was last year but now my mom is asking for my 2021 Christmas list?? I am really excited to get my (very few) fall decorations, and I may…

What a Southerner Needs in a Northern Winter
I see posts in Facebook groups asking what they should buy to survive their first northern winter all the time and honestly, I wish I had had a guide when we moved to Canada (although blogs weren’t even a thing then, so a magazine article I guess?), so here is what you need when you…

Friday Favorites
Do you ever have one of those weeks where you can’t focus on anything and you have a ton to do but you can’t focus and so you aren’t getting anything done? I just feel like I’m drowning in everything and can’t focus enough to find the light and swim to it. It hasn’t been…

Saturday Scroll: September 4
I am so glad we have a long weekend! I have literally nothing planned and now that my August no-buy is over, I have a couple bottles of wine and time for several long walks. I am kind of sad that is already way too cold to go to the beach up here but it…

Project Pan: Powder
I’ve had this post scheduled for weeks, but I kept pushing it because even though replacing an essential make up product or toiletry item was in my exceptions list for my no-buy month, I was still doing a no-buy month. But if I’m going to get something that could be considered clean or low-waste beauty…
