  • Commented on Keeping Your Family Safe...Online
    I tell my sons that they can only use the nicknames we came up with online (vs. the nicknames that we use amongst us and our extended family). And that if someone ever uses their "computer" nickname in real-life, they...
  • Commented on Who Wants 20 Bucks?
    "Pick me up" is definitely what I could use to battle away the winter blahs!...
  • Commented on Welcome to The Nest!
    As cluttered and small as our house is, I love that it's a bungalow... sure, more space would be nice, but it wouldn't feel as quaint and lived in if we spread out over four stories and 3000 sq ft...
  • Commented on Designed with Love & Win a Kobo Arc!
    I love Smythe!...
  • Commented on Weight Watchers Week 8 Update
    When we eat out, I try to order off the appetizer menu for my entree. Sometimes, it doesn't work out and I cave in to having spinach dip for dinner, (which is probably waaaaay worse than having the burger that...
  • Commented on Challenges? Ha! I've got Tools for That...
    I've been telling myself that maybe next year will be "the year"... the year that I lose the extra 15 lbs of baby weight (yeah, okay, it's really 30 lbs), the year that I get in shape so that running...
  • Commented on PAM® makes "Decadent" easy!!
    I have recently discovered "Compost Cookies"... who knew that all those things could go in to a cookie batter and the end result could be so undeniably delish?!?!?! (And they're as easy/hard to make as regular ole chocolate chip cookies!)...

  • Commented on Original. Creative. One of a Kind Holiday Gifts.
    I'd love to be able to win tickets because I've heard about the show but I've actually never been! I would love the opportunity to take my mom and spend some quality time with her, without having my kiddies underfoot....

    I love the "London" outfit. The plaid hat is so adorable!...

    Hahaha! It seems that I'm no different than a lot of other women... I'm constantly digging around looking keys or my cell phone! Funnily enough, the things I actually do find in my purse (like any assortment of toy cars/trucks/action...
  • Commented on Notebook ENVY - and a Chance to Win!
    I'm going to have to be greedy and say that I'm the one in our household who most deserves this gorg piece of technology. The current laptop that I'm using "runs" (okay, more like lumbers) like I'm surfing the net...
  • Commented on Better Education For Life
    I was lucky enough to have my most favourite teacher in Grade 5 and Grade 6. He was amazing and inspired in me a life-long love of knowledge and learning. In addition to the regular curriculum, he introduced us to...
  • Commented on First Day of School!
    I commute two hours, each way :o( I drive from Mississauga to Scarborough, to drop my children off at their grandparent's house and then I'll go to work in downtown Toronto. After work, it's done in reverse (downtown to Scarborough...

    I know, kinda borning and pedestrian, but I've always wanted to have the power to understand all languages... was always facinated by Douglas Adams idea of a Babblefish that goes in your ear!...
  • Commented on How Sexy Can a Vacuum Cleaner Be?
    I hate having to clean up after a party... it's lonely enough in the house when all the guests go home and the kids go to bed. The post-soiree clean up makes it that much more depressing...
  • Commented on California Leafy Greens: Recipe and Contest!
    Even though my kids are (VERY!) picky eaters, I try to set a good example by eating plenty of veggies at dinner. And I have them help me in the kitchen with making their lunches, so they see me packing...
  • Commented on Kobo Vox...the Perfect Mother's Day Gift. And a Giveaway!
    The last book I read and finished was John Grisham's Callico Joe.... I'm such a sucker for his vacation reads and he can do no wrong in my books! I'm about 2/3 of the way through 1Q84... it's an amazing...
  • Commented on The Sweetest Thing - Mothers Day Giveaway!
    What I love most are the unabashed, unrestrained signs of love from my sons (ages 6, 3 and 1)... I know the days are numbered, and soon they'll be ignoring me or when I'm acknowledged, it will be with teenage...

    I love the smell of laundry that's been hung out on the line to dry!...
  • Commented on Kellogg's Rice Krispies Granola Bars & Contest!

  • Commented on The Great Microwave Recipe Challenge
    Here's the ultimate challenge... I would love to see a recipe for good ole Chocolate Chip Cookies. I would think that these would turn in to a gooey, spongy, tasteless, dry mess in the mircrowave....

  • Commented on Week 1: The Florida Citrus Feel Better Challenge! Vote & Win!
    I refuse to eat my lunch at my desk! I'll take my brown-bagged lunch to the food court just to get away from everything in the office and have some solid (continuous!) quiet time to myself.... which is VERY rare...
  • Commented on Think you've got moves? Here comes the Harlem Globetrotters (and a giveaway)!
    I'm a mom of three boys and we are all naturally pranksters by nature. I'd love to take my kiddies as they'd be so delighted in the hijinks of the Globetrotters! And us parents are HUGE fans of The Amazing...
