Homemade English Muffins

I've been meaning to share this recipe for Homemade English Muffins for a long time, but here's the thing... I haven't made this Homemade English Muffin recipe for a loooong time because despite the recipe itself being super easy (just seven simple ingredients!) and rewarding in a warm, soft and buttery, give me all the carbs kinda way, making Homemade English Muffins can be … [Read more...]

Honey Almond Quinoa Granola

August 23, 2018 by Sarah Leave a Comment

This Honey Almond Quinoa Granola is a healthy and super easy way to add some crunch to your next meal.

Breakfast is undoubtedly the most important meal of the day, and yet it's one that I often skip with the excuse of "I'm too busy" or, "There's not enough time". It's nothing against breakfast itself though, in fact, I have an undying love for allllll of the breakfast foods, it's just that I'm not really a morning person. I'm more of a hit snooze until you're five minutes late … [Read more...]

Raspberry Peach Pops

August 17, 2018 by Sarah 8 Comments

It's summertime, and in my house that means two things are guaranteed - the kids will chant "I'm bored!!" 642 times a day, every day, and I will get countless requests for Freezies because "It's soooooooo hot!!!". I can't blame them, I love Freezies as much as the next kid. Even as an adult, I still snip just a little extra off the top of the pop when making the opening cut, … [Read more...]

Strawberry Blueberry Protein Smoothie Bowl

June 28, 2018 by Sarah 1 Comment

Strawberry blueberry protein smoothie bowl is the perfect way to add a creative and beautiful kick to your breakfast!

Ever since green monster smoothies became a thing a few years ago, they solidified the top spot in my breakfast routine. As a busy, on-the-go, working mom who happens to be a vegetarian, it can be a serious challenge to get a wholesome, impactful breakfast in first thing in the morning. Smoothies are an easy way to pack a ton of protein and your daily dose of nutrient rich … [Read more...]

Sometimes life is simply about being in the right Sometimes life is simply about being in the right place at the right time 📍

It was a little bit of both for me today. The amazing weather and warm temperatures called for an early dinner and a walk to the park with all four kids.

A slow shutter finger meant the fun moments from this evening will be saved to my mind camera roll as the big kid says, instead of the iPhone camera roll 💕

Today is #siblingday, who knew?! My brother is se Today is #siblingday, who knew?!

My brother is seven years older than me (and I make a point to remind him of that on the regular!) I always knew I wanted my kids to be closer in age than he and I are, but now having had baby B 11 years after my youngest I now know how much of a gift I was to my brother 🤣🤣

In all seriousness though, happy sibling day big brother!

11 years. 11 years is how long ago I received thi 11 years.

11 years is how long ago I received this Easter dress as an gift from my grandmother for my oldest daughter.

I always knew I wanted more kids, so I hoarded it away with a few of my other favourites in case my dream ever came true. 

Today, baby B donned her big sisters first Easter dress for a pandemic-safe backyard Easter egg hunt. 

I’ve tirelessly searched for a photo of Smalls in the same dress but it’s alluding me. I will find it, so stay tuned for a side-by-side. 

Hope you had a safe and hoppy Easter! 🐰

She’s pissed I wouldn’t let her win! 🤣⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For those of you that are counting, we’ve now booked two private arcade dates for our family and I’m pretty sure there will be more in our future! 🕹⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
@industryarcade is just more than a stones throw away from my house, and they’re a true display of how a business can pivot during uncertain times. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Located in a warehouse in New Westminster, families can book two hour private rentals of the entire arcade space! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Industry Arcade is mostly pinball machines, but you can find some great retro and not-so-retro games that you will surely kill some time at. They also have Skee Ball which is one of my personal faves and I spent more time than I’m willing to admit attempting the high score for a free beer ticket from @anotherbeerco. I don’t drink, but I’m all for bragging rights! Another time I suppose. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re looking for a change in scenery, I highly recommend booking a private session! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Are you a pinball fan?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Anyone else get excited over a new lunchbox? 🍱⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No? Just me? Ok, nevermind then! 🤦🏻‍♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I picked up this @munchkincanada box the other day because who doesn’t need another lunchbox 🤷🏻‍♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s cute, colorful, and has a soft exterior feel. The clasp is easy to unclip which will be great for increasing toddler independence.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today’s lunch contains meatball sticks and @heinz_ca ketchup for dip dip dipping (have you seen my stories of baby B dipping her foods? 🥰), steamed veggies, a heart-shaped hard boiled egg, oranges and blackberries, rice crackers, a @squeazygear smoothie and @preschoice fruit, veggie and oat bar! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can now shop this lunch from the link in bio!
