    Roundup Rodeo BBQ - Who's Planning On Going?

    We were threre last week, reservation was for 5:00, got seated fairly quickly. Out the door about 7pm, so a full two hours. The food was just alright , not worth the money in my opinion. Took to long for food to come out and get refills of drinks and food. Since it’s a preset meal you would...

    Soft Grey Paint Color

    I just had my entire main level painted last week. I picked out all the colors myself and didn’t sample any of them on my walls. I knew that if I started buying samples I’d start second guessing everything and never decide. It took my so long to decide on all the colors and I was super nervous...

    Without saying your weight , are you happy or unhappy with your weight?

    I’m ok with it, I would love to be able to gain 5-10lbs but I can’t. I am slightly underweight and I think I’d look much better with a few extra pounds but my body doesn’t keep anything extra on. My mother and daughters are the same.

My son I don’t ask him any questions about his coming or going, my daughter I might just ask her who’s she’s getting a ride home with or if she’s coming home if...

    What did you want when you were a child?

    I wanted to be a contestant on a game show, I loved so many of them but my favourite was The Price is Right with Bob Barker. I was convinced if kids were allowed on as contestants I would win the showcase showdown. I even had a reoccurring dream about being on the show lol

    Question for dual-income households with active kids: CHORES!!

    I love cleaning, or more like I love the satisfaction a clean house gives me. My dh has always worked nights and me days so I am used to being by myself in the evenings and doing everything alone for the most part. The absolute easiest way to keep things clean is to not have a lot of stuff...

    What type of housing would you not want to live in?

    This would be my house. I am the only one that lives here that actually sleeps at night. My dh works nights and my three kids (two young adults and one teen) all stay up all night and sleep all day. That will change for the younger two who will be back to school this week :)

    Favorite meatless meals

    I’m vegan so all my meals are meat, dairy and egg free and I never run out of ideas. To have lots of variety I incorporate different ethnic foods into a lot of my meals. The different flavours and styles of cooking from different regions of the world make sure they is always lots of different...

    Favorite meatless meals

    I’m about to blow your mind with my vegan speghetti and meatball pizza I created a couple days ago. All homemade even the dough and “meatballs”.

    Do you save things or are you more of a minimalist?

    Me too and it drives my husband nuts as he likes to save things “just in case”. If that’s the case it goes into his office, I just close the door and let him have his chaos in his one spot.

    New School Lunches

    I don’t really see this as that odd at all. Sounds like a lot of food for one meal but it’s not really odd.

    Where is the worst place you have ever slept?

    Yes did that once too, alone, with a ten month old baby. Not so much slept but spent the night as it was 28 hour trip that included a six hour layover in Hawaii airport in the middle of the night. It was a rough trip overall, my son was just learning to walk and did not want to sit still. I...

    Turmeric?

    I’m my opinion it doesn’t really have that strong of a flavour. I use it Indian/middle eastern dishes quite often. I also use it when I want to add yellow color to a recipe. Just a pinch can potentially turn your dish bright yellow. I’ll use it to turn my vegan “cheese” sauces yellow or even in...

    Youth sports

    I’m in Ontario, no youth sports here this summer unfortunately and I doubt they will resume in the fall here, sad. My daughter missed out of the rest of her dance year and recital and her soccer season is canceled, as well as summer camp. Nothing fun left for kids to do here, even the splash...

    Incredible vacation deals

    This applies to me too. Also I won’t be traveling or visiting anywhere that requires a mask so I won’t be getting on a plane or visiting an amusement park if that is part of the deal. I’ll wait.
