Whenever I have a fruit overload situation my immediate reaction is to bust out the popsicle maker – my apricot ‘situation’ was no exception, Apricot Creamsicles it was! We LOVE making our own popsicles at home, and the boys are always right in there helping. There are so many reasons to make your own versus…

How to UP Your Recycling Game!
I still remember when we first started recycling. I think it was around the same time I started learning about nutrition (grade 5, thank you Mr. Jarman), and I’m sure I was a lot of fun at home lol. I was busting my parents at every turn.
Our Hospital Stay with Max
As you may know if you follow along with me on Instagram, Max was admitted to the hospital last Tuesday night with a bad case of pneumonia. As any parent can attest to, there is nothing worse than seeing your child get sick. Four days later we were still sitting in an isolation room…
Creamy Orange Chia Pudding (vegan & gluten free)
I never really understood how mornings could be so hectic for people with kids before I had them myself. I mean, how busy could it get? The answer, as I discovered, is REALLY busy. Pure crazy some mornings to be honest! I can read the looks on moms’ faces as I drop Charlie off to…
Strawberries & Cream Cupcakes
I was at a birthday party this summer where some talented gal made Peaches and Cream Cupcakes…they were to die for! Of course, living in the Okanagan I will take any chance I can get to use fruit in a recipe. It was my inspiration for making these cupcakes.

I can’t believe that Charlie is already going into kindergarten, someone please tell me where time has gone!?

Pastel Smoothie Bowls
Back in university I used to eat the same thing for breakfast EVERY day: a bowl of cereal. Sure, the cereal choice would change a bit, or I would add some fruit to it, but there wasn’t a lot of variety. While I still love a good bowl of cereal, I find that my breakfast,…

I remember feeling busy before I had kids, and granted, I was. Now, I’m sure that I was warned about how busy life with kids really is. But of course, like anything, parenthood is something that you need to experience to fully appreciate. And do I ever appreciate it now!
Fit Mom Snack Guide
Snacking. Let’s face it, the humble snack has gotten a bad rap. Visions of late nights on the couch cuddled up to a tub of ice cream or a bag of potato chips seem to come to mind for many when you mention the word ‘snack’. And there’s some truth to this: poor snacking choices…
Breakfast Popsicles
Feeding kids (and some adults) at breakfast can test the patience of any mom, and I’m no exception. We eat a lot of fruit parfaits around our house, but even those can get old for the little ones. Now popsicles on the other hand: those NEVER get tired.
Raspberry Rainbow Smoothie Bowl
I have the BIGGEST crush on smoothie bowls right now! I love smoothies, but there is something about eating breakfast (versus drinking it) that is so much more satisfying. I confess, I just got on this smoothie bowl train. I didn’t really understand the obsession… until I tried it. Now my head is bursting with smoothie…
