Late Tuesday

Hello Everyone!


Tossing around in the morning is never a good thing! I woke up every hour starting 3am! When my alarm rang this morning Oh boy.. Felt like someone was knocking something inside oh my head! So I called in at work and advised them that I would be coming in late... I usually start work at  8am but today I slept until 9ish and got to work at 10am.

We didnt have time to do our groceries last week because we weren't home.. There was no more coffee, barely any breakfast other than my fibre bars...So we opted for Tim Hortons this morning, boy was I glad that they upgraded the sizes lol!!!Because I was late I only had a 15min break and no lunch for me.. Stayed and worked all the way until 4pm! I'm such a trooper! :)

Even tho we're back from our mini family vacation up North;I still feel tired.. I am not so sure why..
Hubby and I decided that we needed to get out of the house tonight and do something together to snap our of that weird mood so I booked the squash room for 2 hours and I'm sure that this is going to help a whole lot!

I wrote down some of the food that we need until friday( our next grocery shopping) :
-avocado
-organic gluten free tortilla
-coriander
-Greek yogurt
-chia seeds
-organic salsa mix (spicy)
-bread (for hubby)
-green apples
-meat
-lettuce
-organic green tea

Le menu ce soir for me is some of that new tortilla chips, spicy salsa mix an my avocado recipe! (avocado,coriander,salt,red onions and some lemon juice). Hubby warmer up some boeuf bourguignon that he made last year.. I don't like that ( I know I know how right!?) but I did have a bit of his with a bite of his garlic bread...

I hope everyone had a good Monday..my bad Tuesday.. I feel like its Monday for me today! Isn't it cool!
Xoxoox

Back home*


Happy Monday Everyone!



So sorry for the late blog everyone..I wrote my blog earlier on and didn't save it properly... I am exausted!

This morning I had my alarm set at 7am ...switched it off until 8am! lol Woke up got our stuff ready and packed our clothes! Went downstairs and had some coffee and the famous Montreal Bagel* If you guys didn't have one you really need to travel all the way to Montreal and have one :) It's the best bagel ever!!

Here is the link that I promised you guys:


If you guys are looking to go away on vacation, I would defenitely recommend this place to everyone! It did us some real good, the service was really good, the baths were amazing! Hubby loved everyone moment.. we are sad to be back to reality tomorrow... I wished we stayed there for another week!
Check it out..Worth the click..

I dont know where hubby got the energy to cook tonight.. He wanted to eat indian food so he is cooking up some butter chicken with rice.. Not too sure if I will have some of that.. Maybe a bite...

Tomorrow we decided that we needed to get out and play some sports!Squash it is!
We are going to book the room for 2 hours so I can work my sweat out and burn the sugar I ate these past couple days!

I started the laundry and going to jump in the shower!

I hope everyone had a good Monday*

Sunday birds*

We were the last one to get up this morning!8:35am showered and got ready to go downstairs to have breakfast! Must say I'm kinda sad that it's our last day here at the cottage! :( but we have to get back to our reality! And hubby is home for 2 weeks!!!! Couldn't even get any better than that!

After breakfast we decided to take a walk in the forest to the other cottage! I have to say that I am SO SCARED of bears or any living forest creature? Don't ask...why...
I will bring my bear mace and wear the bell!!! Lol even though they are more scared of me! After all the fattening food I had yesterday I need to walk it off lol and the it's perfect opportunity to wear my leopard runny boots :) I baught them online (hautelook.com) and they were $25+shipping! Coming from $165 it's original price! Packed some water bottles and off we went!

It's a bit cloudy today and chilly! It's weird we're between summer and winter! No snow but yet no sunshine!
I wish there was some snow so I could snow shoe outside around the lake!
If you guys wants to check out the spa that we're at this weekend I'll have the link in my blog tomorrow! But you can google the name and click on the link ;) look up the picture below it has it's information.

We planned to go to the general store this afternoon so we can pick up some cat food and maybe get a town Poutine YUM!!! I always wanted to have a treadmill and I'm still shopping around for it online... I might look into it this week.. I hope to get a good deal!

I'm a bit scared to weight myself tomorrow when I get home! I did gained weight I'm sure!!! I hate loosing 2lbs off for a week and gain it and Back where I started the week after! Lol I know this isn't a yoyo diet so I have to figure out a way to keep the weight off when I'm away from home! I have to plan something out, that's for sure!! I can't seem to eat well with family around and kids also! So hard!! Next time I'm going to pack the food and bring it wherever we go that way It'll make my life easier! it's all my fault I need to handle it in a better way!

5km hike later, we took the car and went in town to pick up some kitty food and stopped at this little casse-croûte and had a Poutine ( we did share a medium one) and a toasted hot dog each; I couldn't believe the bill... $15 for all that!! This is so good! [the picture makes it look big but it isn't I promise]
I like my hot dogs with cabbage and mustard nothing else lol

Tonight we booked the baths again! I'll try to take some pictures! I sometime leave my phone inside the house because i don't trust myself with it when we go there! I get so clumsy at times ;uncontrollable like hubby says sometimes? Lol

Before the baths I had an hour nap! Felt so good! Ready to tackle this upcoming week?? Am I?


Le menu ce soir is roast beef roasted on the BBQ for about 3 hours! so good added roasted potatoes with tomato and bocconccini and some fresh basil!
His dad is a really good cook! Love it!!

Have a good Sunday night everyone!
Xoxoxo :)

Bambi in the background*

8:30am is when we got up this morning! Loving this beautiful weather!
It's not so warm and not so cold!!
Mika enjoyed his new surroundings and slept with us yesterday:) too cute!

We played with the dog a bit and walked around the house with him!
Such a cute german Shepard, I had one of them when I was little back in the days when we lived in Mauritius!
I got him as a gift since she was 2 months, we named her prunelle (google the word translation) she was beautiful!!! had a lot of fun with their dog today his name is J'M ( I love in English) such a cutie!

Coffee was already made this morning! I love his moms coffee ( she adds a little touch of love in it ;) ) a secret and it's so good and tasty! I also had some strawberries this morning, 2 boiled eggs and a medium size banana! very filling and that will defenitly hold me until lunch time!

We have massages scheduled today!
90 mins it it! Every time I get a massage I don't end up satisfied but this time was amazing! She was perfect! Massage all the right spots and I even felt asleep! Even woke myself up by snoring!!!! LOL

Today we're going to the sugar shack! Traditional quebecor holiday active!
We're going there for diner! The food is so good but so fattening :( lots of maple sirop on everything!! Usually it starts with an omelette, crepes with maple sirop all over it, 3% milk and lots more! I might just stick with an omelette and maybe a bit of crepes and for sure half a slice of their delicious homemade bread with some butter on it! Omg just talking about it makes me full! Lol I'm honestly sugared out!!! Love maple sirop!!! so good! once a year! right?
I keep telling myself that... LOL
I even had 1 or 2 smirnoff ice? that is the question lol

I hope everyone had a good night tonight and a good day today! Love when it's the weekend!

This is a really good family weekend so far! Well deserved and lots of fun :)

Xoxoox a demain

Roadtrip <3

Hellooooo everyone :) today is Friday and I'm off!! Perfect way to start a mini vacation lol

Woke up at 7:30am even though I had my alarm set for 8:30am! Somehow I couldn't sleep past it! Before going to bed we packed our stuff and picked our outfit for this morning! So all we had needed was a shower and off we were :)

Before heading on our RT we had a appointment at the veterinary for mika this morning; Picked up our coffee at Tim Hortons and a bagel for hubby ( I packed myself a cereal bar from home)
We also got our grey goose bottle for tonight ;) party time! haha

This is the first ROADTRIP in our new car! So comfortable and pumping the music for energy! We have about 6 hours to go! We'll stop at Montreal for lunch, hubby wants to bring me to this burger place (they are mini burgers) its called dic ann's :) another burger?
Oh boy*

Yesterday we ended going to this really good burger place ( I know..I know...) here in Quebec city Chez Victor, the service is really good and food is very good!
We ordered a side of French onions rings and my burger! I wasn't able to finish my burger I only ate half and shared fries and French onion ring with hubby! I was so full and felt a bit nauseous because I'm not used to eat so much food and the onion rings were a bit oily... I had a green tea when I got home and it was all good!

While driving on the highway I was surprised that there was absolutely NO SNOW whatsoever everything melted! Such a different weather since last year! No skidoo this year at the cottage :( We were excited I guess it'll be for next year!

Hubby and I talked about our trip this summer! We honestly can't wait to go away and enjoy each other no drama,no stress, absolutely nothing!
This is a lifetime trip that we are going to go before we have kids! I don't imagine myself with kids on a cruise...! Maybe one day! Never say never lol

My goal this weekend is to enjoy the nature around the cottage, Go for walks and maybe hike but for sure have some sort of activity outside!
I promise to take pictures for everyone!!=)

Stopped at Walmart on the way and picked up a few things and some Easter eggs for the kids :) I finally tried the burger and the Poutine ( fries,gravy & cheese) oh boy!! It was really good but man I can feel the fat packing on! lol I notice that every time I have carbs i feel so dehydrated and I drink about 2-3 bottles of water and my poor tummy have a hurt time to digest...I'll stop for some green tea it'll do me some good like yesterday!

I created this old school' playlist loving it! way back play back!!
Dr.dre, Eminem, Tupac, Jamie foxx and more! Loving it! Love how music makes us all happy and puts us in a great mood! I purchased Ray Charles album :) after watching the movie and also because I love his voice and his songs! It'll ALWAYS be a classic!

I hope everyone have a good Friday! The weekend is here and we all get to sleep in an relax for 2 days!

Le menu ce soir is going to be made by hubby's father! He is a good cook!
I might stay light tonight and not eat anything filling or a big plate! His dad is making home made burgers , strike 3 for me I'm going to eat the meat part only and no bread for me with a big salad on the side!

Xoxoxo going by the fire to relax with some tea xoxo :)

A demain! *
