Getting Glammed up for Mother’s Day

by Tazim Damji

getting glommed up for mother's day

Do you have a handbag collection? And, you know— a collection is 3 or more of the same type of item. My mom definitely has a handbag collection. She has at least 2 for each occasion. I know she'd appreciate the Brooke Wooden Panelled Clutch Purse, which I just received from O.co. The colourful Mint handbag can be used as a clutch under arm, or as a purse with the gold chain pulled across the chest or on a shoulder.  ...

Spring Self-Care Treats from LUSH

Spring LUSH Cosmetics

Since April is Earth Month, I thought I would share some of the Earth-friendly things about all things LUSH cosmetics. Packing (or lack-thereof) is one thing that likely comes to mind when you think about ways that LUSH is environmentally conscious. It's true that LUSH prefers to focus on what's inside the their products rather than what's on the outside: "Creating Naked and packaging-free products at LUSH is at the core of our philosophy. We use as little packaging in our LUSH shops as ...

How to Keep your Knives Sharp with Chefs Choice Professional Sharpening Station 130

by Tazim Damji

chefs choice professional sharpening station

I am sharing my tips on keeping your kitchen knives sharp thanks to Chef's Choice. If there is anything that makes me appreciate having sharp knives to use in the kitchen more than anything else, it's using my mom's dull knives. Her knives are consistently dull, making it difficult to cut through food properly. Add to that, the fact that she always uses the wrong types of knives for jobs, and it makes me want to gift her with a Professional Sharpening Station, like the Chef's Choice Model ...

Personalized Memory Books for Mother’s Day with Mosaic and Mixbook

by Tazim Damji

mosaic

On a wall in my mom's room is a section where my previous greeting cards and pictures are displayed. Flowers are great for an occasional, spontaneous gift, or something to go along with another - more personalized gift - but there are better gifts to give for mother's day. I know that my mom really cherishes the personalized gifts that I give her. This year, I created a photo book of all my favourite memories of times spent with my mom over the years. Normally, putting together photo books take ...

Quick Mother’s Day Gift Ideas for the Mom who Likes to Cook

by Tazim Damji

mothers day

I actually wish my mom and Greg's mom needed more things for their kitchens—it would make it so much easier for gift-giving! At least, I know I can always get Greg something fancy for the kitchen for special occasions. One of the most used, yet seldom thought of products for gift ideas, is a pressure cooker. The WMF Pressure Cooker we talked about in our Deserted Island series is the one we'd pick: ...

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas for Tech-Lovers

by Tazim Damji

My mom has amassed a huge collection of jewelry, doesn't want new clothing, and doesn't need anything for the kitchen—but, luckily for me, she does want to upgrade her tech collection. For her birthday, in January, she asked for an MP3 player. My brother and I bought her one, and upgraded the earbuds to more comfortable ones with better sound. She recently mentioned that she wants some new wireless headphones that are rechargeable for Mother's Day. This helps me out a lot—and works out well for ...
