Express yourself!

Bella has wanted to dye her hair pink for a while now and I finally picked up some @manicpanicnyc to give her some pink ends.

I did the first round last night and then today we put on a second application to make the ends more pink and to do some blending.

She loves her new pink hair!

So if your little one wants some fun colour in their hair let them.

After all, it’s only hair and it will grow out!

Is anyone else eating dinner later and later lately, or is it just me?

I honestly find Bella and I are spending so much time outside that by the time I realize we should probably eat dinner, it’s after 7pm!

Thankfully I have some quick meals that can be thrown together in under 30 minutes, and to be honest that’s what I’ve been doing because I can barely remember anything these days, including taking something out for dinner!

Tonight’s dinner was:

@louskitchencanada shaved beef au jus - 25 mins in oven or 5 in the microwave.

@littlepotatoco garlic & herb potatoes - 5 mins in microwave then smashed and drizzled with butter.

@resersfinefoods broccoli & cheese - 3 mins in microwave.

Some nights just call for a good old quick meal that fills everyone up and I don’t have to prep or fuss over!

What are your go-to quick meals?

I’ve been trying out these Revive Superfoods ready-to-blend smoothies I was sent and I have to say they exceeded my expectations.

I love that I can use the cup it comes in to add my liquid to and put my smoothie in after I blend it up.

Each and every one I’ve tried has been so delicious, but if I had to pick just one as my fave it would be strawberry zen!

They also send a reusable metal straw and cleaning brush too.

Parents, a great upcoming program to watch with your children to get the conversation started!

As anger and heartbreak have swept across America over the killing of yet another black man at the hands of police, CNN and "Sesame Street" are refocusing their second town hall to address racism.

The 60-minute special "Coming Together: Standing Up to Racism. A CNN/Sesame Street Town Hall for Kids and Families" will air on Saturday, June 6, at 10 a.m. ET.

The show will talk to kids about racism, the recent nationwide protests, embracing diversity and being more empathetic and understanding.

How to watch: The town hall will air on CNN, CNN International and CNN en Español. It will stream live on CNN.com's homepage and across mobile devices via CNN's apps, without requiring a cable log-in.

It’s high time WE all educate ourselves, LISTEN to our black brothers and sisters and figure out how we can make changes for them!

We need to ask ourselves how our decisions will affect those next to us.

To challenge our thoughts and the way we think/speak.

To stand up and protect/say something when we see something wrong or unjust.

To have tough and uncomfortable conversations with our children so they understand racism, because our kids don’t know what racism is because they’ve either never experienced it or haven’t been taught about it.

No one is born racist.

@nicolewalters said it best - You don’t need to teach your children to “see no colour”. You need to teach them that we are all equal, but that not everyone thinks that and because not everyone thinks that way, we need you to look out for people who are of colour and help them, especially if you see something happening that may be unfair or not right to them, because you have a magic power where if you say something people listen to you, but unfortunately not everyone has that magic equally. So what you can do is not ignore their colour, see their colour and when something comes up, step up and say something for them because they need your help.

I’m far from perfect, but I’m listening, learning and devoting myself to do more and to be a better ally!

This week has been heavy.

What has happened, and continues to happen in the world is not right and hurts my heart.

I have many friends and family members of all races, religions, genders and sexual orientation.

RACISM ISN’T BORN, IT’S TAUGHT/LEARNED!

I am thankful to have been raised by parents who taught me to love, respect and treat everyone equally no matter their race, religion, gender or sexual orientation etc and I’m raising my children the same way.

While I grew up in a rough neighbourhood, in community housing, with a single mother, my skin colour gave me privilege over those in the same neighbourhood with the same economic struggles and that was and is wrong!

I was never stopped by police in our neighbourhood just because the colour of my skin.

I didn’t experience discrimination or hate because of the colour of my skin.

I never had to worry I may be killed just because of the colour of my skin.

When is it going to end?

When will people stop treating others differently because of their skin colour?

When will our black brothers and sisters stop being murdered for no reason? For doing things we do without fear of death?

I’m sickened. I’m tired. I’m hurting. And I’m not black, so I can’t even begin to imagine how you are feeling.

I know I as one person can’t change the world, but WE as a whole can.

We need to do better.

We need to teach our children to be better.

And while I know my words can’t remove all of the pain, discrimination, racism, loss and fear you have experienced and continue to experience, please know I will do my best every day to ensure my children are raised to not discriminate and to stand up and speak up to help stop this injustice.

Happy Victoria Day!

With only 10 days until my 38th birthday, I’m switching up my skincare routine.

If you’ve been following me for a while you may have heard me share about my battles with hormonal acne.

If you watch my IG Stories you may notice I have scars on the lower portion of my face (chin/cheek area), from the hormonal acne.

While I’ve been able to keep my hormonal acne in check with the skincare I was using, none of that skincare was for more mature skin - aka anti-aging.

I’ve spoken about my love for the @vivierskin Vitamin C Scrub and AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cream many times.

I was introduced to them by my plastic surgeon, @drkunaaljindal at @edelsteincosmetic and both have been a major help in my battle against hormonal acne.

My friends at Vivier Skin sent me some anti-aging products to try and I love them just as much as their other products I already use.

They sent me their Anti-Aging Program, an all-in-one anti-aging solution that really does it all. Reduces fine lines and wrinkles, aging and expression lines while at the same time improving your skin’s moisture, texture and tone.

The Anti-Aging Program includes six full size pharmaceutical grade products in an elegant cosmetic bag: HEXAM, Refreshing Toner, Radiant Eye Contour Cream, Kinē-C, Daily Age-Defying Moisturizer and Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30.

They also sent me Ultimage which is an innovative dual-action complex with Neuropeptides and Hyaluronic Acid, enhanced with water binding molecules and glycol technology. Ultimage works synergistically to soften expression lines and wrinkles, and boost hydration for a smoother, ageless complexion.

After just one week using this new skincare routine I’m seeing incredible results.

My fine lines are diminishing, but most importantly my skin looks and feels incredible. It’s never felt this smooth and hydrated!

Both the are available on Vivierskin.com with FREE shipping + a FREE deluxe sample.
