Sharing my random life is what I do best
Hello Friends,
I know that wedding season is slowly coming to an end but I guess I’ve been thinking more and more about our rustic DIY wedding day lately. It’s probably because Baby Girl will be gracing us with her presence soon and it’s amazing to think about how our lives are going to change when she comes. So yes, the day that labeled us partners for life has been on my mind recently so I figured I would share the details of our day with you.
The season of pumpkin spice lattes, scarfs, and changing leafs is coming!! It’s my most favourite season ever and if you’re like me you count the days until you’re back to sweaters, and other fall trend clothing. My absolute favourite spot to shop for fall is Modcloth. I have been a wholehearted supporter of the ModCloth fashion piece for years. I love the retro, yet updated, feel of their dresses, not to mention they have some pretty rocking accessories. When Chris and I got married 2 years ago, I made a ton of purchases on ModCloth. My favourite purchase was actually the yellow duck umbrella purchase I made. Read More
Hello Friends! Hope your summer is going well. Mine sure is. It’s been hot but I’m thankful for air conditioning and fans. I can’t believe I’m already into my third trimester!!! Time is flying! It’s rather exciting!!! It feels like it was just yesterday that I was writing out my first-trimester must-haves, now I’m writing up my 2nd-trimester survival list…just kidding, my 2nd trimester wasn’t that bad. You can actually read about it here if you’re interested. But there has been a few things that have really helped me through the 2nd trimester.Read More
Happy Sunday Friends!
It’s that time of the week again, to share another tasty caesar that you absolutely need to try. This time, Chris took to the kitchen and created the ULTIMATE Summer Caesar or as he called it ‘The Summer in the City Caesar.’ It includes a whole lotta food on it. I’m thinking he just couldn’t decided what he wanted to eat for dinner so he made a little bit of everything and topped her caesar with it. Pretty simple, yet brilliantly impressive. So here’s what you’ll need to have this dinner/drink:

Hello friends,
I can’t believe I am already 29 weeks pregnant!!! Incase you haven’t noticed, this excites me greatly. So what has the second trimester been like for me? Busy, and eventful. Wholly Donuts! We vacationed at Disney World, ran a 5k race, went to Punta Cana, traveled to London, England, tried to relax, felt like I could eat as much as an Read More
Hello Friends! I hope the summer is treating you all very kindly. It has been bloody hot on this side of the border….this may be the longest summer I ever experience…at least I have air conditioning, thank goodness. Anyways, today I want to share a drink that Chris highly enjoyed during our trip to Punta Cana.
During most of our travels, we have found it’s actually rare to find a location outside of Canada that serves caesars. Most places serve Bloody Marys but to be honest that’s not the same, at all. Chris and I are complete caesar fans, forget the tomato juice, pass us the Clamato juice and we are absolutely happy. So when Chris approached the swim-up bar at the resort we stayed in Punta Cana and saw a drink with Clamato in it, he knew he had to try it. I don’t remember what they called it but I know it satisfied Chris’ caesar craving. Every bartender there made it differently but the two main ingredients never changed beer and Clamato. So when we got home, it was time to give it a try, with a twist.
I made a trip to the local LCBO, which being in my 2nd trimester I received a lot of dirty and judgemental looks…even though I haven’t touched alcohol since before I was pregnant…anyways, I headed towards the craft beers and decided on the Innis & Gunn Irish Whiskey Cask Beer. I’ve had this beer before I was pregnant, and I actually enjoyed it. It goes down pretty smoothly and has some great flavour. You can really taste the whiskey. Chris and I highly recommend.
So if you would like to create this Beery Caesar at home, here’s what you’ll need:
How To:
Beer in a Caesar? Yes, please!
Personally, I think this is a pretty low key and awesome caesar, especially during outdoor BBQ season. I hope you enjoy the flavours!
