    Christmas at Home

    Today marks four years since we signed a lease and moved in together. The evening we received our keys, we got a little Christmas tree for our new place symbolizing the start of a new chapter in both of our lives: we were both moving out of our parents’ house for the first time, and…

    Chewy Ginger Molasses Cookies

    When I decided to add a Recipes section to my blog, I never thought I’d enjoy it as much as I did. I never considered myself a “pro” recipe blogger, and I still don’t, but the fact is this: I love food, I love to cook, and I love to bake. But I especially love…

  • Montréal

    Montréal

    A travel post on Montreal was long overdue on the blog considering it’s a city I’ve visited many times on family trips, work trips or as you’ve recently come to know, impromptu winter adventures. Without a doubt though, our recent trip there was notably the most special. So I thought I’d share six “Montreal Musts” while imprints…

  • Bittersweet Farewell to October

    Bittersweet Farewell to October

    The Fall season has been pretty extraordinary this year. So much so that I want to savour it in this blog post, especially since it’s been snowing and already below zero cold since Monday. Switching my leather jacket to a winter parka was a quick adjustment I wasn’t ready to make so suddenly. I was…

  • A Love Story in Montreal

    A Love Story in Montreal

    They say that you learn a lot about someone when you travel with them, and that couldn’t be more true. Montreal represents a special milestone in our story, and not just because we are poutine enthusiasts or because I’m a proud Francophone. Montreal was the first trip we took together, and that trip was the…

  • Halloween Fun with The Little Mermaid

    Halloween Fun with The Little Mermaid

    Hair spraying my hair “cartoon red” for a Cheryl Blossom costume felt familiarly nostalgic, and inspired me to go back to my original redheaded favourite. Happy Halloween! XO 🧜‍♀️ 🐚

    Dark Moon Empress Halloween Costume

    Halloween costumes are a favourite on this blog. From unicorn costumes to Ariel costumes, I always look forward to this time of the year to post about what creative direction I decided to venture into for Halloween. This year was particularly fun because I got to be in my usual colourful costumes, and I also got…

    Pumpkin Bread with Salted Maple Butter

    Like many, there are certain baked-goods that are my “go-to’s” for a select Holiday or season. My lavender cookies are my staple for Spring, my gingerbread cookies are my Christmas must-haves, and my strawberry cupcakes are…well, let’s be real, that can be enjoyed anytime of the year. Truthfully, any baked-good can be enjoyed at any time…

    Apple Crumble

    I recently posted an apple crumble in-the-making in my Stories, and didn’t think much of it until I received DM replies asking for a recipe. The people have spoken, so here I am, giving the people what they rightfully deserve. A warm, comforting, tasty apple crumble they can whip up at home on a Sunday…

    Framed Pressed Flowers

    One thing that I’ve realized about myself is that I often feel the need to be surrounded by environments that ignite inspiration. If a few days go by without anything stimulating me creatively, I feel a need to seek it. Those environments can be many things; seasons, cafés, nature, old homes and even images on…
