personal finance, waste reduction, skincare, single living, and needlepoint; hopefully travel at some point in post-unprecedented times
January has been such a great month, 2023 seriously has a lot to live up to. It was so fun, I spent so much time with people I love, and got to do so many things and it was just a great time. I started off the New Year with a hot mat Pilates class … Continue reading January in Review
This New Year's/January trip to Toronto has become something of a pilgrimage for me now that I live up north. Toronto is one of my communities, I am lucky to have many, but Toronto is one of my favorites. I love this city, it has everything you could want to do in a city and … Continue reading Trip Report: Winter in Toronto
I have had the best two weeks off. My holiday travel went so smoothly, my time at home was so chill and relaxing, and since I came to the city for the last week of my vacation I have had the absolute best time catching up with friends, absorbing all the city sights and sounds, … Continue reading Holiday Outfit Bonanza
I don't have any way to prove it, but I feel like I must have set a record for places visited in the Province of Ontario this month, and distance traveled while staying in the province. I went from Sioux Lookout to Kasabonika Lake, back to Sioux Lookout, to Wunnumin Lake back to Sioux Lookout, … Continue reading November in Review

It's also so far, been a cozy month, maybe it's because I was sick, but I've spent a decent amount of time cuddled up on … Continue reading November State of the Union
This is so thrilling, I am properly making plans for several small trips for May, June, and July and I am so excited. Pre-pandemic and pre-Sioux Lookout they probably wouldn't have been high on my list, but without any travel since January 2020, just going somewhere I don't live nor my parents live is thrilling. … Continue reading Spring/Summer Trip Planning
I don't think I have anything to say about January that hasn't already been said, it is the slowest moving month of the year and between the lockdown and my job the pandemic fatigue really hit me super hard this month. I did do Dry January, and it was interesting because I can normally go … Continue reading January in Review
I am so excited to be heading home and to bop around Southern Ontario for 17 days (well four of those will be driving to and from Southern Ontario). I am a bit worried that Ms. Omicron will ruin this for me, but I am keeping my vaccinated fingers and toes crossed in hope. I … Continue reading Northern Diaries: Plans for Christmas and New Years in Southern Ontario
Hey friends we're back with the post I always write as my cat runs around the apartment howling as he does every Saturday morning, only Saturdays I don't know why or what he wants, but this is our Saturday morning routine. Also the featured image is a picture of my college friend Justina Reinhardt’s photography … Continue reading Obsessions: May 29
I'm rounding out the Earth Week content with a themed obsessions post! From drag-tivism to my favourite shops in Ontario to access low waste products - these are a few of my favourite things. Instagram Obsession: @Pattiegonia I adore Pattie Gonia and Wyn Wiley equally. They raise such awareness for outdoors-people who don't look like … Continue reading Obsessions: April 24
