Canada’s Wonderland Always Full Of Surprises

lilsugar

If there was ever a way to bottle up a  nostalgic memory of my past summers as a child it would be found at Canada’s Wonderland. The smell of funnel cakes, the excitement of watching roller coasters zoom by, and the long days that turn into evenings filled with cotton candy and games – it can all be found in this place. My parents would take us every single summer as children, it would be the event of the season. We would go thrill seeking on rides and spend hours…

Beaching Without The Bulk – TaLii Towel Review

lilsugar

When I first received my TaLii Towels I wasn’t sure what to think really, the package that came in the mail contained 4 large towels and was no bigger than the size of 1 normal towel. They were compact to say the least – the simple, small package that was mailed to me definitely hosted 4 towels and not just 1. Upon opening I realised that these were not normal towels at all and to he perfectly honest I was sceptical. Would these ever replace our towels that we use…

Maison Berger – Fighting Odours Without Effort

lilsugar

Don’t know about you, but my house always seems to retain a neutral scent about it. Nothing’s wrong with neutral but when I visit my friends or family members i am immediately overwhelmed with a fresh simple aroma to their homes and I’ve often wondered how they do it without bombarding their washrooms and hallways with candles and scented plug ins! With 2 kids who are graduating to the teen years soon occupying most of the space, a husband who is always running in and out of the house and…

Adamo Estate Winery & Hockley Valley Resort – A Piece Of Heaven So Close To Home {Review}

lilsugar

  It’s no secret that my husband is a huge wine lover, he collects, studies and fully enjoys it on occasion. That’s why I was thrilled to let him know of our venture to the Adamo Estate Winery. Thankfully we were invited to partake in a little one on one time and enjoy some adult conversation over the Canada Day long weekend. Truth is, my husband and I never actually go anywhere without the children so this was a great excuse to check out the winery and enjoy some dinner…

Toja Grid – The Simplest Pergola Solution For Any Backyard

lilsugar

    After looking endlessly for a pergola to accommodate our backyard space, we came across TOJA Grid. A modular pergola system that is customizable! This was especially appealing to us because our home elevation is high and every other pergola we were looking at would have blocked our windows had we put them up. Standard heights were around 8 feet tall without getting one made and our space measures 10 feet high in order not to interfere with the window frames. Let me begin by saying that my husband…

Keto Friendly Almond Flour Bread

lilsugar

The first thing people think of when they start to watch their carbohydrate intake is BREAD – where to get it and how to eat it without indulging in the processed stuff. I mean, 2 days into my new diet and I was itching for a sandwich all of a sudden. Self restraint is a funny thing, someone tells you that you can’t have a certain food anymore and voila – instant craving for that EXACT food! Keto Almond Bread is the solution folks! After numerous attempts at finding a…

Farrah Abraham – Called Out As The Worst Mother For THIS Pic

lilsugar

If you read through the comments section of Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham’s latest post on Instagram featuring her daughter completely covered in a first class shower while on the plane to Dubai you will be both shocked and compelled to find that she has a lot of haters and they just won’t let down. With a fraction of her shoulder showing and a hair cap on, it is alarming (in my opinion) to see that people are finding it racy and wrong. The child’s smile is genuine and the…

Carlton Cards Father’s Day Giveaway!

lilsugar

    Fathers Day has always been super special to me because I was born the day after it and over the years I have kind of claimed it as my own personal gift to (in my opinion) the greatest man on the planet. Every single year I struggle to find the perfect card for the man who has set all of my expectations through the roof and standards above any average imaginable. Every year I write paragraphs after paragraphs about how much he means to me and yet the…

P!NK Makes The Most Beautiful Cover Issue And I Have Something To Say About It

lilsugar

When you look at the most recent cover of People Magazine’s Most Beautiful issue I can’t help but notice that it is different then the issues that came before it. It’s evolved, the middle boasts an imperfect accomplished singer Pink along side her adorable children – vastly odd considering the previous ones were adorned by Photoshopped versions of thought of celebrities who stood alone and graced the covers like ornaments to the type set along side them. Pink is mom to her two kids Jameson Moon, 15 months, and Willow Sage, 6½,…

Staying Clean With pureWash Pro – 10 Months Later

lilsugar

  Disclosure: I received a pureWash Pro in exchange for my honest opinion. As always, all opinions on lil-sugar.ca are my own.        As many of you already know, I fell in love with the pureWash Pro as soon as I heard of the concept. Fast forward 10 months after receiving this product initially and I am even more in love than I was before – if that’s even possible. Not only are my clothes feeling fresh and clean, they are giving me the piece of mind I…
