Summer Fun Giveaway – Win a Globber Scooter

July 16, 2020

My daughter just got a Globber Scooter and she loves it! The handles are super-sturdy, the break works (thankfully!), and the light-up wheels are big and make the ride nice and smooth. This folding scooter from Globber is awesome. The lean-to-steer action is intuitive and easy to learn. And on that note, I’m giving one away! – oh and don’t worry, you can pick the colour!

Spring Break is over, or so they tell me. As you know, we’ve drifted into some kind of range of days where vacation has ended but our kids are meant to be learning stuff. What, exactly I’m not sure. But something. As parents, we’re expected to do an awful lot, but in this ...

Learning to Ski on Cypress Mountain

December 30, 2019

I’ve always wanted to properly learn how to ski. The closest I ever got was going on a school trip to Austria but the slopes were icy, I was completely out of shape, and the bigger kids found it super funny to knock me over every chance they got. Skip 20 years (wow) and I’ve finally ...

2019 Honda Pilot Touring – Test Drive and Review

April 16, 2019

I love that I get to try new cars and I’m always looking for a suitable replacement for our modest family car, a 2015 Ford Focus. The 2019 Honda Pilot Touring was admittedly not on my list of eye-catching family-sized SUVs. From the outside, it seems solid, attractive enough, but not ...
