How I Learned to Love Running
Running is definitely my favourite form of exercise, but it hasn’t always been this way… I used to dread going for runs.

Day-to-Day is a series of interviews with women that I admire. I have found at this stage of life, friends are scattered around the province, country, and the world.

Plants Even I Can’t Kill
There once was a fiddle-leaf fig tree in my house… it is no longer. After bringing it home from Ikea, its leaves were one by one turning brown and falling off.

The Platter Salad
When hosting the fam or friends for dinner, I always break out this salad. For some reason, making a well thought-out salad on a platter instead of a bowl makes it look so much more special!
