Lost & Found in Philadelphia

Self Discovery

Lots of Love, Grandma

Friday.  We got the call that my dear Grandma Fife was being moved into Palliative Care from her home at the retirement home.  Okay, more serious than before, but thankfully we were already back in Canada, and I was planning to spend the following five days to have time for just Mike and Grandma. Friday night, […]Read Post ›

There’s Still Luck Left In Atlantic City

Oh, you won’t like it.  There’s not much to do. It’s dirty, and kind of scary.   …Well… have fun! It was a dark and stormy night (literally), and Derrick and I were off for a weekend to Atlantic City.    Our friend Brandon decided AC would be his birthday destination, and for us, it […]Read Post ›

Love, Heart, Hope: The Marching Continues

Due to being in the right place at the wrong time, Derrick and I aren’t able to make any Pride events this year in North America… other than DC.   So a few months back, we penciled DC in.  When we heard about the Equality March, my entire body knew we needed to pen DC Pride […]Read Post ›

Why I Love Cruising

Somewhere over the last eight years, Derrick and I have become “Cruisers” (as in ship cruising people 🙂 ).  10 cruises ago, I never considered the idea of cruising, and now I can’t image vacationing any other way.  It’s a comfort, and an excitement.  Even before we get off our current sailing, we tend to […]Read Post ›

The Art of Homemade Pasta in 6.5 Easy Steps

Guest blogger Derrick is back with his 5th post!  Enjoy! I’ve always had a passion for Italian food.  It’s a big comfort to me.  I grew up with it: we had an Italian dish almost every week when I was a kid.  My parents learned to make sauce from our neighbor Emanuelle Raso, and in turn, […]Read Post ›

Aging Gracefully… With A List

So… it’s my last day of being 33.  If you were to ask me how was it, I tend to think of 33 as the year that if I could do over again, I wouldn’t.  There was too much time sitting.  Too much time waiting.  Too much time wasting.  I just thought I’d be doing more. […]Read Post ›

Marching to Unite the Divided States of America

I have never felt hopelessness like I have since November 9, 2016.  The American ideal that everyone is important, equal, and welcomed is not a reality.  The United States is divided, and on that day, I couldn’t pretend anymore.   I saw the divide, the anger, the fear, and the apathy.  The unquestionable yet flawed and dangerous […]Read Post ›

Resolving To Thrive In A Not So Sweet New Year

January is my sugar free month.  No fruit, no added, no processed, or raw.   And for once, it’s not simply a New Year’s resolution, it’s a plan. Let’s start with the why.  December was a sugar overload  month, and I wanted to give my body a chance to fully reset.  Also, Zac Efron said I […]Read Post ›

Dear Hillary

As of today, Hillary’s road to becoming the 45th President has officially come to an end.  Yet, the difference she has made, and the hope she has given me living in America as someone from Canada, continues to inspire me each and every morning.  That we are all human: perfectly imperfect.  She reminds me to be mindful […]Read Post ›

The Sunrise in the Emergency Landing

“Sorry for the inconvenience but there is an issue, and we need to land- now”. That is the jolting announcement that wakes me from my sleep on the flight home tonight.  After about 25 minutes in the air, our plane from Miami is forced to land due to a generator failure.  Thankfully, they caught the issue before it […]Read Post ›
