Win with Libman!

August 11, 2017 By Fareen 52 Comments

Disclaimer – This is a sponsored post but all thoughts and opinions are my own.

It feels like I’m always cleaning around here. Whether is the floors or the carpets or the counters, it seems like I just have to blink and there will be a mess waiting for me. Having the right tools is essential.

A family company, Libman has been around for over 120 years, and has made quality their utmost priority. Since 1896, the family has expanded the business from corn brooms to include the finest mops, brooms, brushes and cleaning tools.

A few weeks ago, hubby and I checked out the new 1918 Tap and Table located in the new Legion building in Kensington. It was a fun evening where we got to hear from Chef Chris Murphy while trying some bites of what they had to offer.

mushroom jalapeno poppers

August 3, 2017 By Fareen Leave a Comment

This post is my submission for the Mushrooms Appetizer Spotlight Contest which is open to members of Food Bloggers of Canada. The contest is sponsored by Mushrooms Canada for a chance to win 1 Full Conference Pass to FBC 2017.

Summer days for us in Canada mean we are usually outside, grilling our food, and enjoying time with friends and family. We try to make the most of our short summers, so we try to cook as may meals on the bbq as we can.

Anyone who knows me know that I love appetizers and could eat a whole meal of them. We have done a few appetizer parties and they have always been a hit. It’s always fun to come up with the perfect bite so I loved that this contest meant coming up with an appetizer that showcased mushrooms. These mushroom jalapeno poppers are filling and pack a punch.

grilled eggplant with honey, lime and goat cheese

July 13, 2017 By Fareen Leave a Comment

A couple months ago, hubby and I escaped to Spain for a few days. It was a whirlwind trip that I still need to share with you. Soon. Of course we had lots of tapas, loving the little bites.

One item that we loved was from Ultramarinos where we had gone for dinner our last night. We had the eggplant fritters with honey and lime and were surprised by how great the flavours worked together.

Legoland Discovery Centre (Toronto)

July 11, 2017 By Fareen Leave a Comment

Disclosure: I was provided tickets for my family to visit the Legoland Discovery Centre but all opinions are my own.

My family and I headed East to spend some time with family in Toronto and celebrate Canada in Ottawa. The whole time we were there, it rained. So what do you do when you have kids that need to get out and play? Head on over to the Legoland Discovery Centre in Vaughn.

The Legoland Discovery Centre is very different from the Legolands in the US. This was an indoor playground and exactly what we needed to escape the rain.

sparkling lemonade by the glass

July 10, 2017 By Fareen 1 Comment

I can’t believe the weather we have been having lately. It has been HOT! It’s been a bit unbearable but it’s much better than the snow that seems to stay around forever. The only thing to do is be grateful and embrace it.

The best way to beat the heat is with something cold and refreshing. Sparkling lemonade is always my go-to. I keep my fridge stocked with a couple things that make having a glass anytime easy and quick – simple syrup and fresh lemon juice. Make it even more special by muddling in some mint and you’ve got yourself something delicious to cool you down.

Product Review: Shark Rocket Complete

July 5, 2017 By Fareen Leave a Comment

Disclaimer: Shark sent me the vacuum to test out. All opinions are my own. 

As fun as it is to play in the kitchen, there is a side that isn’t talked about much on my blog – the everyday mess! From the meals eaten at the table, the food experiments, the everyday spills and never ending crumbs, it seemed that I was constantly sweeping!

When Shark sent me their Shark Rocket Complete with DuoClean Technology, I was looking forward to what the results would be in the one room we seem to spend the most time in. The Shark Rocket Complete with DuoClean Technology has two brushrolls working in unison to remove large, small and stuck on particles from carpets and floors.
