Our house was built in 1978, needless to say we do renos every year. They're usually little things here and there - new paint, fixing up the garden, etc. We also have big dreams of gutting our kitchen. My husband shows the new kitchen plan to pretty much anyone that walks into our home. Want …
What I Bought Secondhand in 2018
In January of 2018 we started shopping secondhand. The last year has been an interesting journey of thrifting, buying on Facebook marketplace and Kijiji and opening our minds to what we can purchase secondhand. The main reason we started doing this was for sustainability, when we purchase something secondhand no new products are being created. …

It’s 2018, Do What You Fucking Want

Simple + Hygge Meal Planning
(aka regular meal planning done with joy) I love planning. It's probably the OCD in me. I make lists for everything. Checklists, to-do lists, shopping lists, wishlists, grocery lists. I plan business ideas, book ideas, painting ideas. You get the idea. Plus I love food! And eating! I also love to cook, but only if …
Crystal Baby Cleansing
Can we make crystal babies a thing? Real babies are a thing. Fur babies are a thing. Plant babies are even a thing. I think that means it's time for crystal babies to be a thing. Crystals have become SUPER popular lately. Obviously, tons of people have been interested in them for thousands of years …
DIY Foaming Hand Soap
I've given up the wonder that is Bath and Body Works and their scents, sales and chemicals. Therefore I need to replace my candles and soaps that I used to buy every season. I used up the last of my foaming hand soaps from them last Summer and made sure to save the containers, but …
