This energizing Coffee Protein Smoothie is so good when mornings are busy but I still want coffee and something filling.

Made with Greek yogurt, cold brew, banana, and chocolate protein powder — it blends up in under 5 minutes.

Perfect for post-workout fuel, a quick breakfast, or just a reason to skip the drive-thru.

A little taste of the Mediterranean - Fresh veggi A little taste of the Mediterranean - 
Fresh veggies & herbs, seafood, lean meat, and extra virgin olive oil all together to make simple, nourishing meals.

I've been focusing a lot more on what I've been eating lately and have been incorporating more of The Mediterranean Diet into my weekly meal planning. The health benefits have been extensively documented, but I learned through making these meals that it isn’t just about what’s on the plate—it’s about slowing down, sharing food, and living well.

Swipe for sun-soaked meals the whole family can enjoy.

Iced coffee season is here! Stop tossing out that Iced coffee season is here!

Stop tossing out that leftover coffee in the pot — start saving it in the fridge for an easy, delicious iced coffee on a hot day. Here’s my go-to recipe for a simple, café-style treat at home:

• Ice
• 1 tsp warmed pure maple syrup
• Cold, strong coffee (no waste here!)
• A splash of whole milk

Just add everything to a glass, stir it up, and voilà—iced coffee from la maison, just for you.

Substitution tip: Try your favourite simple syrup (like a sugar-free vanilla) for a twist, or swap in oat milk for a creamy, plant-based option.

Spring is here and that means it's time for a ward Spring is here and that means it's time for a wardrobe refresh! I always find myself craving a change in the closet once the weather gets a bit nicer. This season I'm reaching for light layers, soft neutrals and classic stripes. I love a airy, flowing pant, but on those cooler days or when you just feel like throwing something on, a light-wash straight legged jean is also a great choice. Mixing and matching these two looks also works well. The black tee goes great with the white pants and the neutral heels really style up the jeans. 

Which look is your favourite?

Not my usual content. Just a few snippets of life Not my usual content. Just a few snippets of life lately. 

I'll admit - I can be pretty negative especially when life gets crazy. My son is such a beautiful reminder and inspiration to have fun and to live a little more fearlessly. 

I've noticed that I have the best days when I get outside first thing in the morning and go for a walk or work in the garden. This weekend is supposed to be absolutely gorgeous so I'm going to be spending the next few days tending to the grass and prepping the garden beds for some fresh new additions! 

Wishing you a great Friday and a lovely weekend ahead!

Scenes from Easter Weekend. Teddy had so much fun Scenes from Easter Weekend. Teddy had so much fun searching for eggs around the house. He was especially excited about the "big chocolate bunny" the Easter Bunny left. 

I was able to pull together a last minute dinner after we unintentionally spent the whole day out. Thank you to my husband for running out and picking up some sour cream and thanks to my boys for playing trains downstairs and not in the kitchen under my feet. 😅

Hope you had a wonderful weekend as well!
