This post INCLUDES a GIVEAWAY at the end! Admittedly, I’m not an accessory person by nature (and neither is Brent). But, in recent months we’ve been actively working to “level up” our style and I’ve been developing quite an affinity for unique and beautiful things. Do I want a ton of costume jewelry that…
It’s always a treat when we get to work with someone who’s not just a super cool boss babe but when that person is also someone we call “friend”. My HOME Mercantile (sister company to My HOME Apparel) is where I find myself when I’m stuck on gift ideas. They’ve got so much more than…
This isn’t a travel guide. Will we write one? Oh yes. In fact, it should have been done long ago and we apologize for that. This is the story of how Athens changed my life forever. The photos are rough, at best. We weren’t professionals at the time but we still want to share this…

“If people sat outside and looked at the stars each night, I’ll bet they’d live a lot differently. Well, when you look into infinity, you realize that there are more important things than what people do all day.” ~ Bill Watterson, Calvin and Hobbes As we waited for the clouds to clear over Bon…

We teamed up with Downtown Halifax on this one for their #summerpatiosDT series and while we were compensated for this post, y’all know by know now that all opinions and…
Ah, my teeth. To date, they’ve been a constant source of self-consciousness for me as far back as I can remember. You see, they’re hard as nails (which is great) but they’ve also got their quirks. First, they’re not crooked enough for braces but they’re most certainly not straight either. Second, they’re not super yellow…
I know what you’re thinking…weird title right? Who wants and INCOMPLETE guide to Anna Maria Island? Well dearest blog readers, you do. And here’s why… We had the pleasure of spending 4 beautiful days on Anna Maria Island this year and while we had some wonderful adventures, we also realized that this is a place…
We’ve used AirBnB before but only for one off’s at the last minute and never outside of Canada so, essentially, this was our first true multi-night AirBnB experience. If you’re unfamiliar with the site, AirBnB is a place that gives homeowners the opportunity to rent out their properties to travellers. They’re often managed privately (by…
