How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

No More Gimmies

in Everyday, Family on 08/01/11

I wanted hardwood floors. Can’t stop dreaming about the next vacation. Lusting after the Prada dress and Louis Vuitton Bag. The neighbours can afford to put in a hot tub and they just bought a cottage up north too? Good grief how has that women had twins and look like THAT in a bikini. I am tired of headaches. Like… View Post

Making Memories With Hallmark

in Uncategorized on 07/31/11

I am a planner. I make lists, I use calendars, I live by schedules and check marks.  I am constantly dreaming of my next vacation.  I think this constant state of planning has a drawback.  Every once in a while I am slapped in the face with a moment of shock.  Shock that time is passing me by and my… View Post

Dempster’s® Thin Bagels – Review

in Everyday on 07/30/11

Hello, my name is Stephanie, and I am a carbaholic.  I can admit it, I am addicted to bread, muffins, crackers, pasta, potatoes, and bagels.  Oh yes, bagels.  Bagels covered with gobs of cream cheese, melted peanut butter, havarti, with tuna or salmon, as mini pizzas!! You get the idea.  I like my bagels.  That’s why when I was asked… View Post

Um, He’s A Butt Licker?

in Everyday on 07/27/11

After baseball tonight Coach took the entire girls team out for ice cream.  Sweetness. The parents all gathered around the giant picnic style tables and marvelled at how eight screaming 9 year old girls could be momentarily silenced by the power of ice cream.   As the babies licked and dribbled their way through their melty cones, I did my best… View Post

Who Do You Dress For?

in Everyday on 07/25/11

When I was a kid my dear Mother used to dress my sister and I up in matching outfits. Sigh.  This, I have now come to understand, is a bit of a right of passage. Most Mama’s in the Suburbs are guilty of this “dressing sin”.  I didn’t do the matching outfits, but I did do matching colour schemes.  Sorry… View Post

Have you seen this yet?  This little number is the The Filtrete™ Water Station. A new revolutionary way to enjoy the convenience of a water bottle without the guilt that you are contributing to the world’s land fills, or the expense of traditional water bottles.

Found In My Back Yard

in Uncategorized on 07/20/11

Finally, a day when all four of us could just sit in the backyard and enjoy the pool!  The first day this summer when all the stars aligned and the entire family was home at once!  The weather, ridiculously hot, dictated that a full blown pool day was in order.  Got the girls in their suits.  Applied the required sunscreen….

Did I tell you I’m going to BlogHer? Sixteen sleeps.  In just sixteen sleeps I will be boarding a plane and heading off to San Diego!  Suddenly I am suffering from “So much to do, so little time” syndrome so this is my rant, my random and my plea for advice! I’m all kinds of excited with just a little… View Post

Some places are beautiful.
Some places make you feel a little something.
And then there’s @loviamykonos. 🤍

Looking for a hotel in Mykonos? This one has stunning views, the warmest staff, dreamy boutique-style surrounding and an unmatched location.

There were so many moments sitting on our terrace, looking out over the Aegean, we’d look at each other and say, “Can you believe we’re here! That this is real!” 💕
Lovia, you were pure magic. ✨
We left a little piece of our hearts there. 🇬🇷🤍

Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.
