The Holiday Dilemma

We've all been there, we've all experienced it. What is it exactly? The Holiday Dilemma of course! Everything is closed, and unfortunately, sometimes you may find you didn't exactly pick up everything you needed the night or week before.

Well thats where I am as I write this. Its Easter and I'm experiencing the Holiday Dilemma. Our family got all of our last minute shopping done yesterday. We got the food, the spices, the treats and necessities needed for our big Easter dinner.

Sounds like we got everything we needed, right? Well.. While finishing up the dishes last night we quickly realized the dish soap was on its last run and the stores were closed.

I'm in the process of finishing a big batch of perogies, Taco Soup, and and fudge brownies ( I'll post recipes later) and there will be a need for soap if I want to have a clean kitchen before the guests arrive. Needless to say, I have been scrambling to find recipes, tips, solutions or anything to help with my situation.


While looking online I found a few solutions that I am eager to try.


  • Baking Soda + vinegar
  • Laundry Soap
  • Hot Water ( Scalding)
  • Good Scrubbing

It is possible to not use soap at all, however that would require a lot of hot water and soaking - not to mention, for me... I won't be satisfied without soaping my dishes and scrubbing them clean. 

Wish me luck !





Happy Easter

Challenge Yourself


 This will be a quick inspiration blurb for all you readers out there. I want you to challenge yourself 

Pick something and challenge it.

When you find that what challenges or scares you and you face it head on you will find that you become happier, stronger and wiser. I know that sounds cliche but it is true. Everything that takes you away from your comfort zone allows for self growth. 


Where to start?
  • Find what challenges you want to overcome! 
  • Make a list if theres more than one
  • Set a deadline for your accomplishment 
  • Don't be afraid of the outcome or what others think
  • Let go of all apprehensions

Once you've found what you want to accomplish and you've created a plan go for it. You will struggle, and it won't be easy but its worth it. Worth every minute, every thought and every emotion put into what you are seeking out to do. 

Undecided on where to start? Start small, here are some of my favourites that I consistently have on my list.

Becoming a better person
In all aspects of the word. One small good deed could change the way you feel and how you view your day. Even letting someone go before you at the grocery store because they have more items can change your perspective. Start the day off thinking positive and positive actions will be returned

Step outside my comfort zone
This year I am going one step further with my acting, writing and business prospects. I have decided to put my acting lessons  to good use. I've done background work in past, but after talking to producers and people within the media industry I have been encouraged to share my work and even do some auditions. That said some exciting new adventures are coming my way. First stop California for an audition for a comedy school. I am well aware chances of getting in are slim ( not doubting myself, however with tons of auditions by people who have been doing this their whole lives - they will be the ones getting a better opportunity) I'm doing it for experience and a chance to say I did it. I am still a bit shy so I'm hoping this will also help break that mould for me.

Try something new

 I haven't quite found my something new. I thought it would be going to Coachella in two weeks, however  I travel frequently. I believe I want my something new to be venturing off and doing something on my own while I'm out that way. I will update later if I can find something new. 



Most importantly love yourself every step of the way
I love you !





Tell me whats up with you! :)
