As I write this, it’s -30 degrees Celsius and snowing like there’s no tomorrow. Mr Anderson recently had to shovel to get his car not only out of the driveway, but back in again. Friends are posting photos on Facebook showing hair, clothing and beards…

A few years back, Mom was reminiscing about all of the great holiday parties Nana and Papa threw when she was a child. She thought about how much she loved all the yummy savoury appetizers Nana would make for them. And that led her to create her own modern spin on a holiday classic – mini cheese ball appetizers!

It is so simple to make your own elegantly rustic Yarn-Wrapped Christmas Trees – in under 15 minutes, too! See our step by step instructions.

Mom loves Halloween almost as much as I do, so it’s no wonder she created these adorable black bat earrings. They come together in just 15 minutes!

We are firmly into fall and the internet has been going nuts over pumpkin spice for well over a month now. I’m here to tell you that you don’t need to depend on canned pumpkin – making your own pumpkin puree is super easy!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – Halloween is my favourite holiday (only tied with Christmas). There are so many fun things for the whole family, including lots of great Halloween books for kids to read.

Even young readers sometimes enjoy a good scare! These scary books for kids feature spooky, thrilling, chilling stories that every horror fan will enjoy.

Just like at Thanksgiving and Christmas, Halloween is the perfect time to gather your family around for story time. These Halloween picture books are perfect for the whole family.

For my son’s very first Halloween, a wee 6 weeks old, I dressed up that child in so many different outfits and costumes. Just like I couldn’t resist dressing him up, I also couldn’t resist buying a million Halloween board books.

Thanksgiving is a beautiful time to gather together as a family and remember to be grateful for everything you have. Gather together to read these stories and feel the spirit of the season.
