Recently, we experimented using DecoArt Pouring Medium. We tried the pouring medium method in different ways on a variety of surfaces such as canvas, ceramic tiles, and rocks. This pouring medium increases the fluidity of acrylic paint, making it easy and fun for pouring art.

Frying Sweets and Savouries in the Hamilton Beach Professional Style Deep Fryer

Hamilton Beach Professional Style Deep Fryer
We prefer to prepare most of our meals at home. When we make deep fried food at home, we feel more at ease knowing that the oil is clean. Although, we like making different types of fried food such as fried sweets and savouries, we are not fans of oil splattering. We usually avoid deep frying until we started using Hamilton Beach's deep fryer.

Getting Ready for a New School Year

help your kids with series dk books
Having books to refer to for school projects, the curriculum, and hard to grasp ideas will help ease some difficulties we may face in the school year. We have been checking out couple of books from DK Smithsonian, a year by year guide about History and Science, as well as three books from the Help Your Kids series; Geography, Music, and Computer Coding. 

The 2019 Mazda6 Experience

2019 Mazda6
We gave the all new 2019 Mazda6 a go recently and here are our thoughts. If you owned a Mazda6 from the past 5 years you wouldn't notice a drastic change in design. Instead, Mazda has added more power, tech, and subtle tweaks to the exterior design to keep this popular mid-sized family sedan in check with the competition.

Interactive Learning at Science North and Dynamic Earth in Sudbury

This summer we spent a couple of days exploring Sudbury in Northeastern Ontario, the famous Big Nickel! When the giant meteorite struck 1.85 billion years ago in the Sudbury region, it had created an ore-bearing impact structure, one of the world's most famous geological features. This is why this region has one of the largest concentrations of mines in the world. We loved exploring two famous attractions, the Science North and Dynamic Earth, as well as other family fun attractions in the area.

During our visit to Leamington we had a few interesting experiences. We stepped back into the past when we visited John R. Park Homestead and Point Pelee National Park. Then we had a family adventure at Colasanti's, and learned all about farming at Lee and Maria's farm walking tour. While we explored the area we enjoyed delicious meals at Freddy's restaurant and Bradt's Butcher Block, and went to Sweet Retreat for ice cream.
