Oh, hello!

Tara & Helisa met by happenstance over a love of coupons and saving money. Surviving solely on coffee, cuddles and post-it notes (and a bit of sassy humour) they can often be found enjoying all that beautiful British Columbia has to offer.

Okay, ‘fess up. Who has a bag, or *bags* of clot

Okay, ‘fess up. Who has a bag, or *bags* of clothes, towels, blankets, etc hiding out in their trunk right now? Maybe you keep saying you’re going to hit the donation bin or you missed the last @DiabetesCanada drop off date? (ad)

We’ve got you! Lucky for you (and me!) There are 3 upcoming contactless donation locations on August 7th, just in time to clear out some room for back to school!

In honor of the 100th anniversary of insulin being discovered, Diabetes Canada is hosting 100 curbside donation events to drive awareness and keep textiles out of landfills!

On Saturday August 7th visit:
🚗 Kelowna, IGA, 1940 Kane Rd
🚗 Langley, Royal Canadian Legion, 26607 Fraser Hwy
🚗Nanaimo, Superstore, 6435 Metral Dr

Look for the Diabetes truck and roll on through with your new or gently used textiles in clear bags or cardboard boxes, pop your trunk and PPE clad volunteers will happily collect your donations and away you go!

Where are your donations going? Diabetes Canada uses your generous donations to help fund:
→ Important Diabetes research
→ Sending kids and their families to camp
→ Support and counselling for community members with Diabetes
→ And to help divert thousands of pounds of waste from landfills!

Not ready yet? Start gathering your donations NOW because there are also dates coming up in September & October, just in time for a fall clear out! Check out declutter.diabetes.ca for more info or click the link in my bio!

Who’s got donations ready?! 🙋🏼‍♀️

Just a few of my favourite humans. Each bringing such incredible light to my life and support anytime it’s needed. So thankful we were able to connect over incredible food and beer pairings at @stanleyparkbrew for our first gathering since pre-covid!

@stanleyparkbrew has come out with the perfect beer pairings for reconnecting with friends and family over a refreshing drink or an on-the-go picnic. The fruity flavours including Peach Sunsetter, Mango Wheat Ale and Melon Wheat Ale pair perfectly with picnic eats; charcuterie yummies and even BBQs in the backyard.

With restrictions being slowly lifted I encourage you to grab a bev, pop into @stanleyparkbrew to see some missed friends and enjoy some delish food or kick back and relax with a refreshing cold one on your own!

And hey, if you want to go on an adventure, we also recommend the @benjaminkielesinski endorsed Trail Hopper IPA, a personal fave that is perfect for on-the-go “hopper” lover!

Which is your fave?

#ad What if you could do ✨good✨ on your weekly shopping trips? And by do good, I mean support causes that are close to you? @pggoodeveryday is an amazing free program that rewards you for purchasing @tidelaundry, @bountypapertowels, @pantene, @always_brand (and 40+ other brands!)

It’s super easy to turn your receipts into rewards and donations to programs you’re passionate about supporting. It’s easy to sign up, and easy to participate! Do additional activities to earn more points that you can redeem for gift cards, sweepstakes entries or even more cause donations.

I’ve chosen @unitedway as my cause to support as @unitedwaylowermainland has been a huge part of supporting our at risk communities and every bit of help is appreciated.

Between school, working and a full family schedule

Between school, working and a full family schedule I don’t want to worry about the bacteria my kid may encounter! Partnering with @Microban24 gave me the peace of mind I needed that when used as directed the surfaces in and around our life and house were shielded from 99.9% of bacteria for over 24-hours #ad.

Between being active in my local gifting community and having items coming in and out of my home often, as well as reusable bags being the norm for our family, I love how easy it is to spray, wipe, and feel confident my family is protected from any nasties that may hitch a ride home.

Not only do they have a Sanitizing Spray but they have a Bathroom Cleaner & Multi-Purpose Cleaner to protect my home. To learn more, visit the link in my bio.

Summer is finally here, and in our house that mean

Summer is finally here, and in our house that means that the sun illuminates the dust and I feel the urge to purge! An easy way to purge items out of your house is to tackle clothing you haven’t worn, towels that never seem to get used and items the kids have finally outgrown.

(ad) Package them all up in a cardboard box or clear plastic bag and pop by one of the @diabetescanada drive-thru locations near you! In celebration of insulin being discovered 100 years ago, they are holding 100 drive-thru, covid-safe donation locations and your unwanted textiles can help fund valuable research.

On June 26th, visit: ⬇️
𝐀𝐛𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐝 - MSA Arena - 2323 Emerson Street
𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐲 - Driftwood Mall - 2751 Cliffe Avenue
𝗪𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐊𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐚 - Superstore - 3020 Louie Drive

Pop your trunk and PPE clad volunteers will grab your donations and away you go! Help divert gently used clothing & textiles out of our landfill. For more information and for other dates visit declutter.diabetes.ca or click the link in my bio.

Happy Purging!

* G I V E A W A Y * Enter to win a stack of our favourite @peterrabbitmovie 2: The Runaway activities and books!

PETER RABBIT 2: THE RUNAWAY has hit the theatre!

In PETER RABBIT™ 2: THE RUNAWAY, the lovable rogue is back. Bea, Thomas, and the rabbits have created a makeshift family, but despite his best efforts, Peter can’t seem to shake his mischievous reputation. Adventuring out of the garden, Peter finds himself in a world where his mischief is appreciated, but when his family risks everything to come looking for him, Peter must figure out what kind of bunny he wants to be.

I don't know about you but our family is *SO EXCITED* for new movies in the theatres, and even moreso when they are kid friendly flicks for us to use as a family outing! I miss buttered popcorn and movie snacks and hearing little giggles next to me at fun parts of the movie. We loved Peter Rabbit when it first came out in 2018 and can't wait to see what sort of adventures he's up to this time!

TO WIN //

1. FOLLOW @bcmomdotca @sonypictures and @penguinkids

☀️ SUMMER VIBES //

I'm dreaming of beaches, travel and sun. Does anyone else kick off summer with picnics? I love how easy @caffeartigiano made our picnic date. Everything comes boxed up and ready for you to take on your travels, and you can add on some bevvies too!

I may have a new love affair with vegan cheese... I want to put it on *everything*.

What's your go-to picnic must-haves?
