The New Before

Posted on April 15, 2015 by boydsmom • 6 Comments

Sometimes life throws you a curveball- it’s what we do with that ball that makes all the difference. Well, my curveball- I got dumped. There isn’t an Alanis Morristette or Taylor Swift song for this kind of breakup- I just went through a huge friend breakup.  I was pretty bummed. I was pretty shocked. And … Continue reading →

“Normal” Heathy Food

Posted on April 2, 2015 by boydsmom • 3 Comments

I have eaten some weird things this year. Never in my wildest dreams would I have ever imagined eating a pudding made with chia seeds and liking it; or lentil tacos; or kale salad; or quinoa patties; and so on and so on. I have tried a lot of new and different food since starting … Continue reading →

My Mom, Food and Sharing

Posted on March 29, 2015 by boydsmom • 1 Comment

I think food has magical properties. It has the power to bring people together. Food is used to celebrate special occasions and sooth people during times of sadness. My mom taught me this. Most of my childhood memories can be linked to food. My mom cooked and baked a lot. She was the mom who … Continue reading →

Did you know that March 20th is the United Nations International Day of Happiness? This year’s theme is “action for happiness”- it’s all about making social connections to spread happiness.   I’ve had a pretty happy year, month and in particular week!

House Of Cards

Posted on March 8, 2015 by boydsmom • 2 Comments

At the exact moment of this picture I love my body-  I loved my body because it carried me 5k without stopping (well I stopped once because my stupid iPhone randomly stopped playing my music). I loved my body because it kept me upright on very slippery conditions; I loved my body because it … Continue reading →

I Spilled Meat on my Vegan Cookbook

I am seriously in love with Angela Liddon’s website (http://ohsheglows.com) and The Oh She Glows Cookbook. As a committed meat eater, I was surprised how great these vegan (no less!) recipes are! Her recipes are creative, flavourful, and she makes veganism really approachable. I really recommend her cookbook! It’s a must have for any clean … Continue reading →

I Like Fighting with my Husband

Posted on February 26, 2015 by boydsmom • Leave a comment

I love spending time with my husband- honestly he is my best friend BUT I’ve always HATED working out/playing sports with him. It doesn’t matter that I workout more than him and that I’m probably (definitely) in better physical condition than him- but genetics have made it that he is faster, stronger and better at … Continue reading →

Every time I go to take a picture with my iPhone (usually of Boyd) I get that message “Storage is full”. Then I scroll through my countless pictures of Boyd- all of them are too cute to delete. So I try to delete some of the food photos I have stored but I am realizing … Continue reading →

I think this picture just says it all! Ugh! This winter is a tough one! Honestly! Enough with the deep freeze! It’s getting harder and harder to stay positive about winter. I’ve been trying. I really have! In spite of this extreme cold, I have been going outside. I went skiing in minus 24. We … Continue reading →

Clean Confidence

Last year, I was asked to teach a baking workshop at the Osgoode Youth Association. It was for a special joint event with ROSSS (Rural Ottawa South Support Services) called Generations. It was probably my best experience teaching at OYA. The day joined teens and seniors for a day of baking (hosted by me), art … Continue reading →
