If you've checked out my Instagram account lately, you've likely noticed the influx of yummy fruit & veggie photos that have taken over! Ever since I subscribed to Fresh City Farms' weekly organic produce delivery, I've had more than my share of daily intake of fruits and vegetables. Me and S have been trying to come up with different recipes to try and new ways of cooking certain vegetables. We'd never even seen a celery root before! One of the greatest little life hacks I've stumbled ...

Fresh City Farms all Organic Produce
S & I just signed up for this amazing all-organic produce delivery service by Fresh City Farms and we love it! So let me just start by saying that me and S definitely don't consider ourselves all-organic, only-organic, 24/7, day and night people. Where we can, we will shop and buy organic, and it isn't for any reason other than the health benefits that eating organic brings to our bodies, if you're wanting to try eating organic and fresh produce have a look around at various fresh produce ...

EATALY PASTA – Morelli Spicy Linguine Recipe
I recently made a D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S spicy linguine with portobello mushrooms dish with Eataly Pasta - Morelli Red Chilli Linguine! While S was in Chicago not long ago, for his surprise bachelor party, alongside the famous Garrett Popcorn he brought back, he also picked up goods from Eataly for us to enjoy back in Toronto! When visiting New York or Chicago, Eataly is one of our favourite destinations to drop in to. I read online that EATALY won't be coming to Canada until at least 2017, so for ...
Jordan’s Morning Crisp – My Breakfast Go-To!
Have you tried Jordan's Morning Crisp yet?! Years ago, in a game of "Name your Favourite Cereal", my friend Anthony named Jordan's Morning Crisp as his favourite breakfast food, and I quote "they should have their own food category" LOL! Well, a couple months later, S & I were grocery shopping at Loblaws when I spotted the brand. We picked up a box to try and have been HOOKED ever since. Jordan's Morning Crisp, Dark Chocolate is our favourite flavour. But they've got like five or six ...
Fairmont Royal York Hotel Treats!
So I recently acquired these awesome goodies from the Toronto Fairmont Royal York Hotel after a quick stop-off!

That's right! I never knew before I picked up this jar but the Toronto Fairmont Royal York Hotel is home to more ...
Chicago’s Delicious Garrett Popcorn!
So, you may already know that earlier this year I travelled to Chicago with a friend for the first time. Before visiting, everyone insisted that I try the infamous Garrett Popcorn namely the classic "Garrett Mix" flavour. When it comes to sweet and salty snacks - my friends definitely know that this is my weakness, and I was excited to try Garrett Popcorn to satisfy this craving! ...
Jax Coco – Nick’s Kitchen Essentials
You might be familiar with Jax Coco. Their coconut water is my absolute favorite, it has the cleanest and most pure taste of its kind. I remember back when I ran the Toronto Scotiabank Marathon (2014 - full marathon) that I loaded up on two full litres of Jax Coco Coconut Water to refuel/replenish my body. Now, after every run, workout or yoga class, Jax Coco is my go-to. I connected with them on social media a little while back to stay abreast of all of their new products, and when I got ...
