Celebrate Loved Ones with a Fall Harvest Dinner
During the warm months of the year, I like to go for walks with my loved ones—along the seawall, in forested parks, and on hiking trails—but when it starts to get colder out, I like to have them close-by as we enjoy a meal together. Rather than go out to a crowded restaurant, I prefer to put something together in my home and relax while I enjoy the company of my friends and family. To me, fall is all about relaxing, enjoying the abundance of nature, and celebrating with gratitude for the loved ...

Mexican Fiesta with Meal Ideas and Recipes
When I think of Mexico, vibrant colours, rich flavours, and fresh ingredients come to mind. Liveliness, celebration, and happy sounds of family and friends enjoying themselves are also added to the mix. Naturally, as a lover of all things Frida Kahlo, the movie Frida and the soundtrack from the movie served as inspiration for my Mexican Fiesta. I love the scene, near the beginning of the movie, where Frida's mom and sister and other women are in the kitchen cooking together. Gathering around ...

What's a single gal to do on Valentine's Day? Typically, people throw Valentine's Day parties for their children or their spouse/significant other to enjoy with them.

Halloween Decorating and Party Ideas
Halloween is just around the corner, which makes me sad because winter will soon follow. . .but before that happens, why not celebrate fall for a bit longer with a Halloween party?! I'd love to throw a Game of Thrones or Hunger Games party but instead may opt for a more simplistic one, with treats and decorations like the ones below. ...
Game of Thrones Party Ideas
In my opinion, you don't need a special occasion to throw a Game of Thrones themed party. Whatever the occasion—birthday, halloween, baby shower, or weekend BBQ—it's always a good time to celebrate the realm. I guess you need to ask yourself, which house are you loyal to? Or do you want to have a more general Game of Thrones party (as long as everyone gets along and there are no beheadings, this could be fun)? You'll need everyone to drink out of Game of Thrones themed mugs, and ...
Canada Day Party Ideas
On July 1st us Canadians will be celebrating Canada Day. People do 1 of 2 things to celebrate the holiday—get drunk and go to outdoor concerts/celebrations, or have backyard BBQs with their family and friends. I've gone to those big celebrations in parks or city hall a few times and never really enjoyed myself. I definitely prefer a more quiet get-together. ...
Summer Entertaining Calls for SodaStream
Having guests over for summer entertaining means that not only is the food important, but also the drinks. Since one can of carbonator produces 60 litres of fizzy drinks, you'll have enough for a party-worth of carbonated beverages. The SodaStream Fizz includes a Fizz Chip to measure the amount of gas in the cylinder and the amount of carbonation in the beverages. ...
