Caffeine > Sleep Quality.

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have noticed I am focused on my sleep habits. I’ve mostly been a good sleeper my whole life – certainly on planes… Where I can fall asleep before take off sitting straight up. But shifts in my body chemistry over the past four years have made theContinue reading “Caffeine > Sleep Quality.”

Jealous Bitch Apple Lemon Curd Tart – A New Canadian Thanksgiving Tradition.

This isn’t a recipe post for an Apple Tart. Fuck that noise. You won’t be scrolling through a load of text to find a recipe for this lovely confection I made this afternoon to pseudo celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving (even though I no longer officially celebrate the holiday).

Lasted Two Hours.

A follow-up to last week…

“You’re Going To School This Week.”

George is two and a half now. And she is sweet and loyal pup. And she is fierce about protecting me. Other animals are not allowed to request attention from me. Like most in her species, she does not trust anyone who rings a doorbell. Or anyone who walks past or stops their vehicle inContinue reading ““You’re Going To School This Week.””
