Historical romances have been my guilty pleasure since high school. Being raised in a very strict Christian home, I would sneakily borrow historical romance books from the library and hide them at the bottom of my backpack. I remember sitting at church with a book hidden between the pages of my Bible absolutely enthralled in … Continue reading 5 Books to Hype You Up for Bridgerton Season 2
A few weeks ago, I attended an online cooking session with 3rd generation Australian winemaker, Justin Taylor of Wakefield Wines and Sydney-based chef Guy Turland of Bondi Harvest.

This month marks our 100th night sleeping on our Endy mattress! To be honest, it feels like much longer because I'm so used to it now. I first saw Endy on Dragon’s Den where they walked away with three dragon investors. Though rolling a mattress into a vacuum sealed box seems like a good idea … Continue reading 100 Nights with Endy (an #EndyPartner post)
Happy Autumn everyone! Against popular opinion, Fall is my favourite season of the year. I love walking around outside to the sound of crunching leaves and the smell of pumpkin spice lattes.

Wow! It's been a while since my last post and times sure have changed! The past few months have honestly been such a rollercoaster for me personally and professionally. Sometimes, it's very therapeutic to just roll up your sleeves and bake (as I'm sure the 29387492x people out there baking sour dough have been doing). … Continue reading Recipe Box: Matcha White Chocolate Cookies with Loacker Wafers
Back in January, I was sent a copy of The Upside of Falling by Wattpad superstar Alex Light. I have to say, thus far, it has been the best book I've read in 2020 (and I've read 24+!)
