We had a sneak peek at Toronto’s newest illuminated experience, Terra Lumina, last night. Produced by the same company that brought Tonga Lumina & other world-renowned night + light “LUMINA” events – Moment Factory – Terra Lumina is an enchanted night walk that takes visitors on a journey through a luminous vision of our planet’s future. Passing through a portal, travellers are transported to a
It’s hard to believe we’re under a month away from Christmas! I haven’t done one bit of shopping yet (welp!), but have got a head start on thinking about what we’re going to have on the menu for our pre-Christmas family gathering. And like most ways I approach our crazy full life lately, we’ll be embracing a holiday entertaining simplified approach! While I typically
We love how our City of Toronto lights up this time of year and getting out to enjoy the twinkling beauty of it all as a family. Next week, a new light event comes to the Greater Toronto Area – Christmas Glow Toronto – and we’re so looking forward to experiencing it & starting a new holiday tradition! Glow Toronto is said to be the
Tis’ the season to do good, show love and give back. Raising our kids to live with a spirit of generosity and kindness is top of the parenting priority charts for us. During the holidays especially, we really try to highlight that it’s not what we have but what we do with what we have that matters most. It’s a virtue my own parents demonstrated
The longer I’m on this creator journey & pouring into our family platform, the more important it has become to be involved with projects that reflect our core values and build those into the work I put out and the partnerships we align with. Well, we are pretty proud Canadians, who believe in living with a spirit of generosity and kindness and keeping our family
It’s been over 3 years since hubs & I have spent more than a few hours away from the babes. No longer in the season of babyhood, but now in a season of full calendars filled with kids’ activities and social events, finding time for “US” is tricky. But there was a pocket in the hockey schedule this weekend and we seized it. Thanks
We’re back from a fabulous family holiday, but not so wonderful is the post-vacay sickness takedown we’re being hit with this week. The remedy? Recreating this Turkey, White Bean & Kale soup our gang gobbled up a few weeks back when the weather temps dipped. It’s great as a starter to your Fall dinners, holiday menu or just another to add to your family’s “soup
Our weekends are ruled by the hockey schedule of our boys now, but #DadChef and I are making a deliberate attempt to slow down and unplug on Sunday evenings to actually enjoy making a hearty family meal that isn’t rushed and gather together for an end of weekend family feast (just like Nonna used to insist we do when I was growing up). After a
#DadChef and I promised to put together a collection of silly easy recipes for the Fall just in time for “Mission: Divert Dinner Panic” once full schedules kick back in and this one is at the top of the list – our Easy Peasy No-Meat Pasta Sauce we whip up on repeat for a meatless meal option all-year long. It’s seriously so simple, takes just
If this Summer had a feeling, ‘joie de vivre’ would be a good description (with the usual Summer travel shenanigans 😉). When deciding on where to cap off Summer with the family, so many mentioned Mont Tremblant. And after our very first visit, we can see why – the food, the atmosphere, activities for all tastes, Tremblant really has it all! So, if a visit
