Now that all four of my kids are riding, (Post on how we made that happen coming soon!), it was time for Mama to get a new bike.  My bike was pushing 25 years and it was just time. I couldn’t be happier than the moment I opened up the Canadian Tire flyer to find [...]

Just last month my daughter had to get ready for a fancy night-time birthday party to which she was invited, and when she tried on the party shoes she wore two weeks prior…they were too small! Well, off to the mall we ran and Payless ShoeSource came to the rescue!  We found these adorable silver [...]

Anyone out there who… could use a night out? feels that this is only permissible after the kids are in bed? could use a massage? has Mother’s Day shopping on the to-do-list? would love to support local businesses while purchasing for those on that list? would love to do more to give back to the [...]

TOYS – HOUSEWARES – FURNITURE- CLOTHING… YOU NAME IT. They’ve got it. I have been to liquidation outlets but NONE like this. They’ve got 1 MILLION DOLLARS worth of inventory that they are selling at 40%, 50% & up to 75% off! Rather than put it all into words, I just figured I’d show you: [...]

We have a beautiful shower, but it has no storage. We had one of those wire gizmos hanging from the shower head but things would slip through & slip off and it wasn’t enough to store the family-size bottles of shampoo, etc. plus the various body scrubs & gels that have made their way into [...]

Every so often, we check out the latest & greatest at Costco. Keep in mind that the various Costco locations may have different inventory, and they can run out fairly quickly.

So…have you heard about Andy & Evan? If not, then you need to. Especially now. For photos, for get-togethers & holiday gatherings, you will NOT find cuter attire for your little man. Ever since they were babies, I have always had a harder time finding fab clothing for my boys than I have for my [...]

I thought these were great when I spotted them & I just had to share.  Although I wouldn’t recommend as an environmental option, they are definitely great if storage is an issue…   And for those who are into licensed characters…   Hope this little tidbit proves useful! Have a sweet day Tanya Blog this! [...]

Like so many people, I try to remember my reusable shopping bags all the time.  When I forget I end up with a bunch of plastic that I end up reusing somehow (at least those that make it home without developing holes in them) The bags I have a hard time putting to good use [...]

I was recently invited by Honda Canada to road-test the new CR-V.  And when I say road-test, I mean ROAD TEST.  This was not a regular test drive in any sense of the word. Honda invited 5 other bloggers and myself to enjoy a CR-V EXPERIENCE.  And that we did.  After an extensive presentation teaching [...]
