How My Daughter Met Superwoman Lilly Singh
Remember how obsessed you were over your teen idol? I was obsessed with Debbie Gibson, Michael Jackson, New Kids On The Block and of course, Alyssa Milano. Don’t you judge me. You know you loved her too. I would have given ANYTHING to meet one of them or even be in the same room with them, not counting the 30,000 … Continue reading
2017 Chevrolet Sonic: A Big Turbo In A Compact Car
I admit that when I was offered the use of a 2017 Chevrolet Sonic Turbo to drive over the mountains from Calgary to Vancouver, I was hesitant. The weather can change instantly thru the mountains from sun and blue sky to full on white out blizzard. I much prefer something with all wheel drive for such a trip but since … Continue reading

The 2017 Ford Explorer is the 5th generation of the ever popular SUV since it’s launch in 1990.

I really needed a girls weekend away. I can’t even tell you how important it is for me to step away from my life, my kids, my to-do list and just spend some quality time with friends. So that’s what I did. 13 friends. 5 condos. 2 nights. 100’s of laughs. This is how to rock a girls weekend in … Continue reading
2017 GMC Acadia Denali: A Family SUV
The day I picked up the 2017 GMC Acadia Denali we were preparing for the ultimate test drive. Years of begging. Months of planning. Weeks of anticipation. We were finally adding a puppy to our family. The middle of November is usually not the most ideal time to drive over the mountains but I was confident that the Acadia could handle it. … Continue reading
2017 Buick Envision: Luxury For Less
When I think of a Buick, I think back to the mid 80’s model Buick Regal that my parents had when I was a kid. It was a big comfortable car that had velvety seats and a big back seat that I could lay out in (no seat belt of course) on long road trips with the family. Fast forward … Continue reading
My First Hammam Treatment At Soma
Luxury and wellness go very well together and recently I was treated to both. Buick Canada invited me on a retreat that involved a mountain estate hotel, amazing food, spectacular landscapes along a photo tour behind the wheel of the 2017 Buick Envision and that was just the first day. I was excited and very curious for my first Hammam … Continue reading
Retreat In Luxury Close To Calgary
Mid November. The space that falls right after Thanksgiving and Halloween but before the onslaught of Christmas shopping, holiday parties and hours in the kitchen baking cookies. I can’t think of a better time for a battery recharge. Last week I spent a couple of days on a retreat in luxury close to Calgary with Buick Canada for the launch of … Continue reading
