Find your escape at the Kananaskis Nordic Spa
Say hello to the beautiful Kananaskis Nordic Spa.
Like any girl, I love to get pampered at the spa. There’s nothing like a little rest and relaxation to help you wind down from the daily grind of life, family, kids, work and more. But you’ve probably never had a spa visit like the unique alpine experience now being offered at the Kananaskis Nordic Spa.
Nestled in the Rocky Mountains, just 45 minutes west of Calgary, the Kananaskis Nordic Spa is earning some rave reviews and for good reason. Focussing on a mix of hydrotherapy and massage, the spa offers View this Post

Four breads to try at The Loft Bakery
Who loves fresh bread as much as I do?
Who loves bread as much as I do? I’m a total fan of all things delicious and doughy. I like my bread soft and chewy. I like it warm and fresh out of the oven. I like it crispy and toasted. I like my bread sandwiched into savoury eats and I like my bread covered in jams and marmalades for a sweet treat. I like bread any which way you can have it!
There are lots of places to get fresh baked goods around Calgary, but one of the newer options View this Post

I was beyond thrilled to be in the same room as the former First Lady of the United States! I’ve always had a deep admiration and respect for Michelle Obama and View this Post
