I really enjoyed frozen desserts, its very satisfying, and curbs the cravings for something sweet. Using frozen fruit, herbs, and a little natural sweetener creates the perfect frozen treat in your blender in minutes without the heavy fats, and hard to digest casein proteins that can often accompany a dairy dessert.
I had the absolute pleasure to sit down with Victoria Vilaivan, who owns and operates Seek Yoga in Sherwood Park, Alberta to learn more about the work she does with children and to gain a deeper understanding of the health benefits of yoga.

I’ve received a number of questions from other mom’s asking for tips about helping their kids make healthier choices? Over the years I have had my own struggles as a mom.

Learning the balance between educating your kids versus pushing them so far the other direction has taken me years to figure out and being able to admit when I have made mistakes.
Persimmons are out seasonally right now, I keep seeing they’re beautiful brightly colored orange and yellow skins while I am shopping. They seem like such a cheerful fruit I wanted to create something that was fun to eat with them. Nice Cream it is!
Indulging in a cup of rich, decadent Hot Chocolate is my favorite drink over the holiday season. Now I am not speaking about hot cocoa, when I say hot chocolate, that is exactly what I mean. The difference simply is hot cocoa is what many of us think of when we say Hot Chocolate. You open a package of powdered cocoa or make your own powdered mixture and stir that into hot milk. Growing up this is what I thought Hot Chocolate was too. Then, I had real Hot Chocolate at a little restaurant in New York and my mind was blown. Real Chocolate!
I wish these pictures were the scratch and sniff! Seriously, the smell of the fresh ginger, spices and molasses are unbelievable. These donuts are soo easy! No baking and frying required.
