DAY 3: THE NEW HOLIDAY PARTY….THE BEST BRUNCH IN TOWN.

December 7, 2017 No Comments

We’re officially in the holiday season. Which also means tons of gatherings to stuff into 4 weekends, which can be somewhat overwhelming. Thank goodness I have a solution for us. Brunch. But not just any brunch. The best brunch in town. It can be difficult getting everyone together in the evenings but honestly, send out a group text, organize to meet at Cleaver for brunch and I guarantee you there will be little to no scheduling conflicts. Now let’s get to the goods. S’mores & Nutella French toast, challah bread, strawberry, maple syrup. Smashed avocado on toasted sourdough, bacon, poached egg, hollandaise. Buffalo chicken benny, hot sauce, celeric slaw. Fried chicken, sausage gravy, fried egg, buttermilk biscuit. Are you drooling yet? The bennies are […]

September 30, 2017 No Comments

ANNOYING. Capital A. Sometimes my skin hates me. It’s uuuuuusually for a reason though, like celebrating a little too much, not drinking enough water, maybe my hormones are going haywire who knows. What I wanna know is how to get it taken care of. Like by YESTERDAY. UGH. We are busy! We have things to do, people to see. I know, I know who reeeeally cares if someone is breaking out and you’re right, but if I can do something to clear it up a quicker, why wouldn’t I?! Today I’m sharing my top trick. Trust me. I should have become a chemist. I have tried every concoction of pimple cream, toner, acid, EVEN TOOTHPASTE but something that truly helped was an enzyme peel. {this is […]

MAKING COMFORT FASHIONABLE

August 19, 2017 No Comments

Thank god for Whiskey Weekend. Comfort and fashion are two things I love. So when they both come together, I’m one effing happy girl. I have been following this clothing brand online called Whiskey Weekend. Look it up. It’s the bad ass IDGAF wit that I need in my life. Not to mention they’re LOCAL. When their LOCALS ONLY line launched I knew we would love it. Hence why I am giving you an exclusssss look at some of their new designs. The two ripped t shirts aren’t even LAUNCHED yet. Sooo LUCKY YOU. Get ready to get your paws on these. These styles make comfort fashionable all on their own. I mean honestly those ripped tees?! I LOVE the white one that says “Honestly, […]

I Am SO Over Grocery Shopping. Hello Chefs Plate.

March 25, 2017 2 Comments

Drea Marie is SO OVER grocery shopping. So she found Chefs Plate, a grocery/recipe delivery service in Calgary, AB. CHECK IT OUT.

But seriously. SO OVER IT. Not to mention the lines at Costco. On a Sunday. *eyeroll* So I started searching for anyway to avoid it and came across Chefs Plate. I had never had a meal delivery service before but loved the idea of Chefs Plate. They deliver recipes and ALL the groceries that go along with those recipes right to your door. PLUS it’s not just in Calgary… they deliver to Alberta, Ontario, British Columbia, & Manitoba and they are expanding quickly. So you still cook it AKA it’s fresh for whichever day you want to make it but the prep is cut in half. Maybe even more than half. NOT TO MENTION the number of times I’ve forgotten something I’ve needed for a recipe and sat on my […]
