Weekends at the Banff Gondola are full of fun Christmas activities to get everyone into the holiday spirit.

It’s one of our favourite times of year up at the Banff Gondola – Christmas! We had such a great time last year and all of us were happy to go again….
Disney On Ice: Dare To Dream is returning to Calgary! Enter to win a pack of 4 tickets to the show.
One of my favourite memories when I was little was going to the Ice Capades. Watching the characters glide on the ice in a spectacular show. Those were fun times.
It’s great that these memorable times can be recreated with our little guys. Disney On Ice is coming to Calgary. The Dare To Dream show returns to town from November 14-18 at the Stampede Corral.

Create this orange and black board for your Halloween shindig. Filled with cheese, meat and fruit, there’s something for everyone.
It’s almost time for Halloween. It is one of my favourite times of the year. It’s a great time to get creative with snacks and decor and costumes.

Things are really different from when I was growing up. There were no cell phones or laptops until I was a lot older. There was no internet growing up and I didn’t get email until I was in University. Whoa, I am totally aging myself here.
We live in a connected world where the kids have access to so much on their ipads or computers or their phones. It’s great to have so much information at their fingertips but also very scary….
These Malteser Skor bars are heavenly. The addition of Maltesers to the already delicious Skor bars take it to a whole new level. A delicious upgrade.
One of our favourite treats for the holidays are Skor bars. I discovered the recipe a couple years ago when my cousin made it for our Christmas party. We have since included it in our treat boxes and at parties and it has always been a hit. It’s something that I didn’t think could be improved. I was wrong.

This pumpkin cake with all it’s spices is warming and comforting, topped with a luscious cream cheese frosting. Perfect for Fall.
Snow. Loads of snow. This is what we dealt with yesterday. Fall was enjoyed for just a minute before the snow bombarded us. I couldn’t believe the pile of snow that greeted us in the morning. When the white stuff started coming down again, I closed my blinds, ignoring what was going on outside.
It was definitely a day to bake and this pumpkin cake has become a favourite. Q has already requested it for his birthday which is over a month away.

You hear it all the time, when kids go back to school, colds and sickness are soon to follow. When school started earlier this month, we were determined to get this year off to a healthy start.
We tried to develop habits like coming home and washing hands right away. Fresh orange juice has become a daily occurrence to ensure we are getting our Vitamin C to ward off any colds. We have also started drinking Feel Good Syrup….
Garlicky and packed with flavour, this chimichurri sauce is a great way to use up parsley and perfect with steak and chicken.
Who has an abundance of parsley they need to use up from their garden? With the recent cold we have experienced, I harvested a lot of parsley and was looking for ways to use it.
Since we were having steak for dinner, my mind naturally went to a sauce that I could serve with it. As most of you know, I am all about the sauces and dips. All the condiments in my fridge are a testament to that.

Nutella lovers rejoice! This Nutella latte is super easy to make at home. Cozy up with a cup and a good book and you have the perfect day.
Snow in September. Living in Alberta, this is definitely nothing to be surprised about. Snow in the summer, chinooks in the winter – it’s what we deal with every year. But, with the beautiful hot weather we had this summer, I didn’t think the snow would come so soon.
My love for Nutella is no secret. It’s delicious in brownies, ice cream, cookies….and lattes! This cozy drink is super easy to make.
