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.

I’m settling in for an evening of snacks, contests and fun at the @hflvancouver Sip and Savour event! Picked up our gift bag earlier and it is ✨loaded✨ with some of my favourite brands and some new faves to discover! Best part? It’s a virtual event so I can snack and party in my pajamas!

I’m missing in person events so this is the perfect way to have some fun with friends, try some new goodies and maybe win some epic prizes.

Swipe 👈🏻 to see what’s inside the @wholefoodsbc bag!

Do you have a favourite snack inside? I mayyyy already be eating the @laikicrackers 🤷🏼‍♀️🤣

Lift Each Other Up //

It’s @pinkshirtday, and I am so thankful to be raising a kind human who believes kindness is her love language. She was determined to be the pinkest kid in class today and talked about all the ways she was going to show some extra kindness.

I’m acutely aware, as someone who was bullied growing up, that a pink shirt doesn’t eliminate bullying, but hopefully it can encourage a snowball of kindness that can manifest change, even if it’s just a small change. How are you showing extra kindness today?

Don’t forget that you can donate directly to anti bullying initiatives on the Pink Shirt Day website and shop the Pink Shirt Day shop with proceeds benefitting community programs.

Are you wearing pink today?

I thought my days of having my hair up were over for awhile when I cut off 18 inches and donated it last year. (gifted)

Turns out, moms will ✨always✨ find a way to mombun and daughters will always find a way to steal their scrunchies.

Both A and I are loving our new scrunchies from @brew.knot, each scrunchie is hilariously named after a character from @schittscreek so, there’s one for every personality. They are such high quality with a thick elastic band; plenty of floofy fabric and some of my favourite fabrics! I immediately stole back the black patterned one because miiiine.

I love supporting local but even more so when I have a need for allllll the scrunchies!

Do you have a favourite scrunchie or is this just a me thing?

Head over to @brew.knot to grab yours!

Would you like to win theMaskWash set? Give yourse

Would you like to win theMaskWash set? Give yourself a time and energy-saving gift!

Does anyone else have a ridiculous amount of masks, mostly so you don't have to keep washing them every day? I hate doing laundry and try to squeeze in one laundry day a week and that was not working with a house full of mask wearing people!

@theMaskWash is a new portable mask washing system that just hit the Canadian market. Developed by two B.C. sisters (who happen to basically be my neighbors of amazingness), this eco-friendly solution gives consumers a hygienic and time efficient way to single-wash cloth face masks at home or while travelling - without the need of a washing machine!

It's incredibly easy to use, use a small amount of your favourite detergent, fill with the warmest water your mask care instructions allow, seal it up and *dance party* your way to cleaner masks. No seriously, just shake it up! Once you're done, rinse out the masks and lay on the waffle weave microfibre towel or hang to dry.

I've found this to be a life saver, instead of needing to wash every single day I'm able to toss a bunch into the large bag every 1-2 days without needing to worry about the pressure to do an entire load of laundry!

One lucky fan is going to win a @themaskwash system to try out themselves!

🎄 #CroodsNewAge is on demand December 18th and

🎄 #CroodsNewAge is on demand December 18th and we've teamed up with @universalpicturescanada to Giftaway a CROOD-tastic prize including a digital download to watch the movie at home. It's a holiday event for the entire family! 🎄

Searching for a safer habitat, the prehistoric Crood family discovers an idyllic, walled-in paradise that meets all of its needs. Unfortunately, they must also learn to live with the Bettermans -- a family that's a couple of steps above the Croods on the evolutionary ladder. As tensions between the new neighbors start to rise, a new threat soon propels both clans on an epic adventure that forces them to embrace their differences, draw strength from one another, and survive together.

I think we could all use some good laughs right now and The Croods: A New Age delivers just that, I am pretty sure A cackled her way through at least half a dozen scenes. And... AND... there is SLOTHS. I won't ruin it for you, but they are some of my faves in the entire movie. Our family loved the continuation of the original Croods story and can't wait to share it with you!

*CLOSED* Congratulations Leslie! 🎄 Want to take home a @vanchristmas Artisanal Box? We got you! 🎄

One of the events that made it feel like Christmas to our family was the Vancouver Christmas Market and when they announced their closure, my Christmas spirit took a bit of a hard hit. Thankfully, they found a way to pivot to still help you bring some of the market magic home.

Carefully curated boxes full of Canadian-made goodies you'd usually find in the vendor huts are now available for you to bring home! Beautifully wrapped and packed with care, they are the perfect gift for teachers, family, or friends - or even yourself!

It also wouldn't be the Vancouver Christmas Market without the 2020 cup... complete with the mask-wearing mascots! A was quick to ask for hot chocolate in hers as we settled in to listen to the Sounds of the Vancouver Christmas Market playlist on Spotify. It may be the first year we've "missed", but it gave us time to remember all our favourite memories there.

Boxes can be purchased online and be picked up at Jack Pool Plaza until Christmas Eve, or local delivery within the Lower Mainland is available.

🧽 SCRUB SCRUB 🧽 Enter for the chance to take home a @cleancratecompany Clean Crate in time for the holidays! Swipe to see what's inside --->

So many of us are moving to fewer unnecessary shops and I'm one of them. We went from a weekly grocery shop to every 2-3 weeks and I try my best to make things stretch until the next shop. One thing that I often forget to check? The cleaning supplies. Ugh.

The Clean Crate Company has the perfect solution, a quarterly subscription service that delivers enough eco-friendly toxin-free cleaning supplies to your door to last the average household 3 months. Included in the crates are trusted Canadian brands (and quite a few of my personal favourites!). New to sustainable products? This is also a fabulous way to try out new brands to find your new favourites!

I have reactive airways and am very sensitive to heavily scented products, so I love that there is a safe scent-free option for our home and still includes tested products that will meet our families' needs.

Did someone say BLACK FRIDAY? Head over to @cleancratecompany to take advantage of 20% off your crate + free shipping!

🎄 It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas •g•i•v•e•a•w•a•y 🎄 (ad) Start a new holiday tradition with a Christmas Eve Experience box & Personalized Santa Letter from @signed_by_santa!

2020 has caused a lot of us to pivot on holiday traditions and in our house, we’re starting some new ones!

These carefully curated boxes bring the magic to your front door —> swipe to see what’s inside <— on Christmas Eve be sure to hang your Santa key; leave out some food for the reindeer, make some cookies for Santa, ring your holiday bell and most importantly... make some snow! Each Christmas Eve Experience Box also includes a Nice List certificate straight from the North Pole!

These kits feel like they’ve landed right from the North Pole, add a personalized Santa Letter to complete the experience (and be prepared to cry, they are so beautiful!), felt ornament set or popcorn stringing kit to add even more new traditions.

Kids a bit past the 🎅 stage? The Let it Snow box includes delicious hot cocoa & snacks to enjoy on a cold day.

So who else did the isolation purge? [ad]

I went through boxes of old kids clothes, blankets I’ve hoarded over the years, pillow cases from 47 sheet sets we never use and many small kitchen items that were taking up valuable space in my tiny cupboard. Bags and bags of things, ready to be diverted from the landfill!

All in anticipation for the @diabetescanada touchless curb-side dropoff for your gently used clothing & textiles. November is National Diabetes Awareness Month and every donation helps fund Diabetes research and D-camps for kids and their families. It also gives over 11 MILLION Canadians access to resources and support for their diabetes.

Want to help the cause? Package up your clothes and textiles in plastic bags or closed boxes and visit @realcanadiansuperstore Delta location at 8195-120th St on November 14th from 9:00am-2:00pm. Volunteers will be on location wearing masks to safely remove items from your vehicle.

Can’t make it to the drop off? Visit https://declutter.diabetes.ca/ to schedule an at-home pickup or find a local donation box.

Who’s going through their closets this week?
