    Whooooooooa… We’re half-way there…WhoooooOOOAA! Chocolate everywheere… February 1st! I do not know where the month of January went, but I recall glimpses of events and timetables and a lot of chocolate towards the end. As a student, I find this point in the Hot Chocolate Festival challenging: Professors are beginning to remind their classes about upcoming…

While it is months from being over, the season is currently one of applications, interviews, and planning for the months ahead – it easily feels as though the fourth…

    Pumpkin Challenge: Day 29

    The paleo diet – if a caveman (ahem, cave person) wouldn’t eat it, neither do you! If you could hunt for it and find it in the wild, then it’s yours to eat – nuts, seasonal fruits and veggies, meat, seeds, etc. Essentially, it is a “natural” diet, in that you aren’t dealing with agriculturally-produced…

    Pumpkin Challenge: Day 21

    Today marked a small but exciting event, and since breakfast is the most important/one of my favourite meals of the day, it felt appropriate to start the day off with breakfast being super.I do not often eat pancakes, but when I do, the day is either going to be tough, and thus requires a breakfast…
