The holidays are upon us and with some light peeking out at the end of this LONG lockdown tunnel it’s finally time to celebrate in person with friends and family!

September 2021 is the start of a school year like no other. I’m implementing new protection methods in my home this fall that I wanted to share with you and also getting the kids excited for back to school.

It has been a long, long year, and who doesn’t want (and need!) a getaway? However, a vacation is not likely to happen any time soon (SNIFF). So, create your own vacation hot spot in your very own yard! With a few simple updates and budget friendly purchases, you can create a few fun, stay-cation zones for memories that will outlast COVID!

Many people know I am a Vegetarian but the rest of the household isn't. So, making meals can become more complicated than it needs to be. However, I have discovered some great plant based substitutes that the whole family loves! 

This Spring I am looking to change up my routine as this winter was long and boring being in lockdown, so I need a change as I am going stir crazy! My new thing is fun alternative healthy options to add to my meals and being more creative with my recipes this season. That is when I fell in love with Liva, Raw Date Sugar, a healthier alternative to many other sweeteners. On top of the goodness it is Canadian and founded by a Toronto local Lubaina #bosslady and you all know I love supporting Canadian products and female entrepreneurs so double win here!  "I created LIVA out of a personal desire to reconnect with the sweet moments of my life with family and friends and because I know there are many people like me who are seeking healthy, organic, whole food alternatives. Our approach at LIVA is as simple as our products. LIVA date sugar contains only two ingredients - whole, ground dehydrated dates and love. In fact all of our products are created on this foundation of goodness and that’s why we think life’s a little sweeter with LIVA. We hope you will as well." Founder/Owner

THE SEASONS HAVE CHANGED... BUT THE PANDEMIC REMAINS.... HOWEVER... WITH WARMER TEMPERATURES – THERE’S AN OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE THINGS UP A BIT...

Jo gets asked what products she uses when it comes to her face and her HAIR! So we thought we would share . . . she likes to be an open book! 

This year I want to give people tips on how to create magical experiences at home to enjoy with your immediate family. This year I want it to be all about creating unique memories and setting up fun new traditions.    

We all know the holidays are going to look and feel a little bit different this year. No large gatherings, no parties, and no dinners with friends and extended family. This year more than ever, we all need a little extra holiday joy. Instead of finding it in larger groups, outside the home, or at parades and social gatherings, why not create it in the safety of your own home.

I am in need of finding the perfect wide rim hat for this fall season. Let me know what one I should get?
