    Camping Meals

    August always brings that bittersweet nostalgia that comes with the end of summer. City carnivals get set up, sunflowers are in full bloom and school bags and pumpkins slowly start making an appearance in retail stores. August, to me, also symbolizes camping season as it’s been a ritual of ours to go camping at the…

    Summer Charcuterie Board

    Ever since I started posting recipe and meal ideas on here, I came to realize that I should really dedicate a post to my “go-to” dish that I always put together when having one friend or a gathering of people over. You’ve seen hosting ideas on here before, whether it be for chilli, tacos or…

  • Outfit Ideas for a Tropical Wedding 

    Outfit Ideas for a Tropical Wedding 

    We recently attended our friends’ destination wedding in beautiful Punta Cana. The funny thing about this occasion is that I used to work in the destination wedding industry for almost four years, consulting the travel plans of hundreds of destination weddings yet this was my first time attending one as a guest. So I was…

    Punta Cana

    I miss filling in the “Passport” section of my blog. When I first started this blog, sharing my highlights and photos from my trip to Turkey was my favourite type of content to share. As my blog evolved, I nurtured other categories I equally enjoyed, like my event styling, DIY projects, beauty reviews and recently,…

  • 7 Healthy Snack Ideas

    7 Healthy Snack Ideas

    During my health journey, I have found that having a little snack in between meals have helped me cut hunger pangs and prevents me from over-eating. Healthy snacks also keep me energized and hydrated, and can healthfully scratch the itch of an occasional sweet craving. Below are seven of my most common daily or weekly…

    What I Eat and Drink in a Day

    This may sound silly but as a visual person, my brain tends to associate a healthy meal with colour. If I see greens, reds, oranges or yellows on a plate, my mind defines it as nutritious. We’ve all heard that the more greens on a plate, the better. So I feel like that’s the main…

  • My weight loss journey and how I lost 30 pounds

    My weight loss journey and how I lost 30 pounds

    Today marks ten months since I decided to embark on a weight loss journey that lead me to lose 30 pounds. I constantly get asked what my secret has been, and I always find it funny that people think there’s a “secret” to losing weight aside from the obvious eating healthy and being active, which…

    Lavender & Honey Shortbread Cookies

    Of all of the content I’ve written on my blog, I have no doubt that “lavender” has been featured and tagged on here the most. I’ve talked about how good it smells, how lovely it looks and how it provides soothing wellness. Now I’m here to talk about how wonderful it tastes. Over the past years,…

    Sauna Routine

    The title of this post may be misleading. It may lead you to believe that I bask in a sauna on the daily, and that I’m about to share some unattainable weekly pampering routine that takes place in a luxurious sauna, ready to my avail at any time. Well, not exactly. The purpose of this…

    Chocolate and Strawberry Cupcakes

    Sometimes the cute packaging of a cupcake set will inspire me to try a recipe, and that’s exactly what happened when I spotted this super cute Valentine’s Day cupcake at HomeSense. Just one look of the gold foil liners and the pink and gold heart toppers inspired me to bake chocolate cupcakes with strawberry buttercream.…
