My kids have me on the run. 

I try to maintain some sanity by limiting the activities to one at a time: basketball during winter, soccer in spring, and swimming lessons for a few weeks in summer. However, I have THREE children and rarely do their commitments sync up for optimal scheduling. We're on the go constantly, so I need a stash of...

When you become a parent, nothing is more important than giving your baby the best possible care. Suddenly we look much more critically at our kitchen pantries and cleaning supplies than when we were carefree students and young professionals!

When my first child was born, organic food was just starting to break into the mainstream but was not...

Le jour où l’on devient parent, soudainement rien n’est plus important que de donner les meilleurs soins à notre bébé. Du jour au lendemain on devient plus pointilleux qu’à l’époque où on était de simples étudiants, voire de jeunes professionnels, à l’égard des produits de nettoyage et des aliments qui se retrouvent dans notre...

Everything is digital-this and smart-that, but I guess we knew it was coming. 2015 is the year of the flying DeLorean* after all, and ever since I discovered that my kids have never seen a rotary telephone or heard a phone's busy signal in their entire lives, I realized that the times have truly changed.

(*Did I just betray my age? Bonus points if you have a hot clue where that reference...

My heart beats a little faster every time I walk into the specialty cheese aisle at the supermarket.

During my last pregnancy, I was briefly lactose-intolerant even though I craved cheese like I'd never ever see it again. Creamy Bries, spicy Jalapeno-Havartis, and smoky Goudas were all I could think about. Thankfully, after my son was...

It all started off as a Harry Potter-esque smudge descending from just left of my widow's peak. Being the middle of summer, I blamed it on a sloppy application of facial sunscreen resulting in a unique sunburn. A little BB cream was more than sufficient to cover it up at first.

After a while, my distinctive lightning bolt became more pronounced and I started to see a few new darkish spots...

Trying to conceive (or "TTC" as parents-to-be call it) is not just a matter of making love every other day and happily finding a plus sign on the pee stick at the end of the month. According to one study, about 20% of moms-in-waiting are still unsuccessful after six months of trying. Speaking from personal experience, this can be very demoralizing.

So what can you do to increase your chances of...

Starting a family can be a nerve-wracking experience. Are you ever truly ready for this huge step? As teens and young adults, we spend much of our time trying to avoid pregnancy. Going from deathly afraid to desperately wanting a baby is an interesting journey.

My first child was unplanned. We were happily married but we were also students: broke, busy, and absolutely not ready to settle...

I shared recently that my home is Grand Central Station to three busy kids, a neighbourhood-ful of friends, and our two pets. Now in the middle of summer vacation it's only gotten busier. Summer camp, fishing day trips with Dad, and helping Grandma in the garden are par for the course, but this summer we're also building our new house. Overcommitted? Yeah, you could say that.

And so, to...

A few years ago I jumped on the power toothbrush bandwagon and never looked back. In fact, due to my raving I know of quite a few people who received a power brush in their Christmas stocking. Most of them were initially disappointed (kind of like receiving socks, you know?) but everybody changed their tune after using these miracle workers for a week.

Miracle worker, really? you say. I...
