Hi All, I am so excited to be participating in Me-Made-May this year! And this is my first weekly round-up of outfits! It is a short week, as May only started on Thursday- but here are my first three days of MMMay! Day 1 Taking Fin out for a walk with mom- it...
Hi All! Today's Throwback Thursday is one of my first successful projects- and my first vintage pattern make! I made this dress when I was 16, so almost seven years ago now *cries silently*, and this is a picture of me wearing it when I just turned 18. (There...
Hi All, I thought I would share a little bit of what I did this weekend! I had a fun weekend with my sister and friends in Toronto. First thing on Friday was the Creativ Festival! Where my sister and I met up with my friend Claire. We all had fun looking at mostly the...
Hi All! This Throwback Thursday I wanted to share something that I did in my third year of University: Vogue Charity Fashion Show (VCFS), which, as you can imagine from the name, is a charity fashion show hosted by a university club. I'm going to warn you right now-...
Hi All! Supper Sunday again- and this one is a tried-and-true favourite! I LOVE this, and it is great crowd pleaser. I think of it as a more posh lasagna to feed a crowd - because you can be all "shells stuffed with artichoke hearts and ricotta". lol The original...
Hi All! This Throwback Thursday, I have a slightly more recent project than last week's TBT , but this was also a project made for me by my lovely mom 🙂 And it is this coat, made from McCall's M5513 about 5 years ago: I consider this my more 'dressed up' winter...
Hi All, This is going to be a bit of a random post today- but I thought I would show you my dogs new hair cut- curtsey of the Erin&Mom dog salon. You may have seen my dog, Finn, featured in some of my past pics- he is a fluffy little white bichon frise-...
Hi All, I know I have been terrible with Supper Sunday's - I've missed two in a row- there has just been so much going on! But here I return- and with a pork roast! Now you may notice that this recipe is remarkably similar to the lamb recipe I posted in...
Hi All, I'm no longer on dog sitting duty since my parents have returned from the sunny California! And of course with them they brought me some lovely gifts: A little clutch wallet, matching panties, california dates, and -drumroll- the new american BurdaStyle...
Hi All, So I thought I would start a new thing- TBT (throwback-thursday, for those not in the know), where I will show you a sewing project from my pre-blog days. I'm thinking that quite a few of these will be made by my mom, since she has made me so many lovely...
Hi All! As promised here is my latest sewing project! It all started when I received these two items in the mail- which I ordered online after creeping every blogger who has ever sewn drape drape and swooning for hours... as you can see they are already littered with...
Hi All! You might notice that I have a new button in my side bar- and that is the Me-Made-May 2014 button! If you don't already know Me-Made-May is a challenge hosted by Zoe of the blog sozowhatdoyouknow.blogspot.co.uk to wear as many of your home-made...
Hi All, It almost feels strange posting a recipe here after all the swimwear! But alas- I shall not break the chain of Supper Sunday! I will admit- I pre-prepared this post so that I wouldn't have to worry about blogging a dinner during my swim course so I sadly do...
Hi All! This Sunday I have quiche for you! I love quiche for dinner, but it is also a really great lunch/brunch to serve to company. This is very versatile recipe- so I will give you the recipe I made this time specifically but you should know that you can put pretty...
Hi All, I thought I should be random this Friday and do something that I've never done on here before- review some make-up products that I've been loving! If some of you don't know already, I am a bit of a make-up addict and I enjoy watching countless hours of make-up...
Hi All!! Finally it's here!! I have completed my Islander Sewing System jacket!! And I love it! If you didn't read my post before about me making this jacket- then all you need to know is that my mom bought me a course on Craftsy.com taught by Janet Pray (the woman...
Hi All, This Wellness Wednesday I wanted to write about something that I've been doing a lot lately- clearing clutter- and generally pairing down on all my material possessions. This is something that I feel is really undervalued and can make a huge change to your...
Hi All! Second post of the day *does victory dance in head*!! So the past couple weeks that I was sick (I am better now 😀 ), I left my apartment to the warm comfort of home and my mom taking care of me- which meant a lot of time spent in the home headquarters sewing...
Hi All, First off- I just want to say sorry for being so MIA -only a Supper Sunday post last week?! *hangs head in shame*. But to make it up to you, I will be posting every day this week! and since I have already missed yesterday.., I will be putting up two posts...
Hi all! This Sunday I have a super quick supper- this one comes together really really quick, it just takes a little bit of fore thought for the marinade. This one isn't super pic heavy, because honestly it came together so quick and it is so straight forward that I...
Hi All, This Sunday I have a rib recipe for you all, and this is what I like to call a winter rib recipe since I don't make them on the BBQ, but I suppose you could do these on the BBQ if you wanted. But they are super tender and tasty! And they go really well with...
