Hi guys! Happy last day of 2019! I remember being in my school days and each year would pass by sooooo slowly and I thought it would never end. Since graduating I can’t BELIEVE how fast time passes. It’s crazy. I feel old. I don’t have the head space right now to reflect on the last 10 years lol so this is just a reflection on this year.
Read More7 things you didn't know about wine
So, after years of basically only drinking rose, I am finally on the red wine bandwagon thanks to my friends at the EXPÉRIENCE par/by ANBL in Moncton. Not only did my time spent with them introduce me to the world of reds, I also learned some pretty amazing tips that honestly make me feel like I really know what i’m talking about when it comes to wine! I’ve listed them below for you guys in no particular order- just a few things that I thought were pretty cool to note! If you want to read about my entire experience in Moncton with ANBL here is a link to that entire post too!!
Read MoreTravel: How we flew First Class to Hawaii & Stayed at The Ritz Carleton using Credit Card points
Ok! I am so happy to have this all in one place! I get questions about how we did this, daily. I needed Justin’s help to put it together because he did most of the research. Lol. Credit card companies frequently give out very valuable bonuses to entice you to sign up for one of their cards. Justin & I, (mainly Justin lol) have spent a lot of time going through the best deals and so far we have been very successful in getting a lot of value out of these, all without paying a single cent in interest!
Read MoreHome Series: Kitchen Transformation
Everyone knows that the kitchen is the heart of the home. For us, it is the spot we hang out in the most, where we cook and eat dinner, and where 99% of my business is run. So the stakes were high when it came to the kitchen renovation. The old kitchen was sectioned off in a weird way. In the middle of the kitchen, there was a wall with an arch, separating it from the dining room. As soon as we walked into the house, both Justin and I knew we would knock the wall and open up space.. Check out photo and video transformations down below.

Hi guys! As the holidays are approaching, this means lots of gatherings, socializing, and enjoying your favourite food and drinks! When it comes to a favourite drink, everyone knows I’m either a wine or rosé girl and I stick pretty closely to these. Justin absolutely loves his Old Fashioned and indulged in this whiskey base drink our entire Hawaii trip. When we got home I challenged him to make me a whiskey drink that I liked! Sort of like an Allie version of an Old Fashioned, so, sweet and fizzy! We purchased our whiskey at Experience by ANBL in Moncton so if you’re looking for the exact kind, check there! Here are the two recipes we used to create his and hers whiskey cocktails.
Read MoreExperience by/par ANBL
Last week I had the opportunity to do something I’ve always wanted to but never really done- learn about red wine, like really learn. I feel like people are always telling me that once you’re older you’ll “get into” red wine and with my 26th birthday in November I felt like it miiiighhhttt be finally time to just go for it. SO the girls & I headed to Moncton last week & with the help of the amazing staff at the Experience by/par ANBL I now feel like I can school Justin ANYTIME when it comes to wine. It was so educational and SO interesting.
Read MoreHome Series: Buying Our 2nd Flip, Before Photos
Hi guys! Believe it or not we bought our next house flip! What is crazy about this house that it’s actually the first house Justin and I ever went to see when we started our house hunting a few years ago. The only reason we didn’t get this house a year ago was because we needed a live in flip, and this house certainly wasn’t one.
