Conspiracy 101 – use your tin wisely
Lately the subject of "tinfoil hats" has come to my attention a few times so I feel it is necessary to help dispell some inaccuracies that are common around their construction. Whether it's 5G networks, mind control rays, chemtrails, space lasers or any of a number of other conspiracies against you (the list is endless … Continue reading Conspiracy 101 – use your tin wisely
Seasonal Pillows
I recently had a friend ask if we had “seasonal pillows” in our house. After a brief discussion, I learned that there are people who change out their cushions to match the colours or themes of the seasons and holidays throughout the year. This got me thinking about our humble couch and I realized that … Continue reading Seasonal Pillows
Hangin’ Around
My wife and I are the proverbial “empty nesters” and that has brought about some exciting changes with how we utilize our living spaces.

Online Buying and Selling – bargain hunting or a twisted social experiment?
We live in an age of unfathomable technology and information. The world is, quite literally, at our fingertips.

Happy Thanksgiving. It's that tiny window in our year, wedged between summer frolic and Halloween. I say wedged because Halloween is a full two month ordeal around our house, with decorating, planning meals for a Halloween party, designing costumes - there's very little time for this turkey nonsense to be honest. However it still is … Continue reading Thanksgiving Needs More Cowbell
