Cook Yourself Young written by Elizabeth Peyton-Jones is a simple to understand, useful book to have. Since the food we eat and our body is connected, what we eat makes a big difference on how we feel.

Wearing comfortable and cozy boots to keep our feet warm in winter is a must, to avoid getting sick! My daughter and I like Skechers boots that have Warm Tech Memory Foam, which makes them the best to keep our feet warm. The thermal fleece lined insole retains our natural body heat and prevents it from escaping.

Celebrating the season with Pumpkin

It is pumpkin season and we love it! It is one of our favourite harvests of the season. We usually enjoy it by making a savoury side dish, making soup with it, and baking whoopie pies and buns with it. This year my children got busy scooping out the seeds that we turned into a delicious snack to enjoy when watching Netflix.
