Waste time...NOT wine...

So I buy 12-grain instead. Like most people my age, I try to eat right and exercise. But truth is, I'd much rather sit on my butt in front of the TV and watch a full season of Shameless while eating french fries and mac&cheese. Together. Of course, I can't do that because 1. I can't afford to replace my entire wardrobe with bigger sizes. and 2. I don't want to be judged by all of the healthy hipsters in the check-out line at the grocery store. So that's what today's blog is about. All of the time and energy I waste on trying to live a healthy lifestyle even though I reallyyyyyyyy don't want to. Now, don't get me wrong, I enjoy the poorly executed yoga I partake in, and I do love fruits and veggies. But haven't you ever wanted a simple grilled cheese? Like the kind you ate when you were a kid? I'm talking completely taboo all-white bread (cue gasp) and a Kraft single! Delicious. I know healthy eating is a great thing, but in my opin

me and my munchkins - nieces & nephew, not kids. yikes. Although I think I have a pretty good handshake, I always hated how awkward and formal shaking the hand of someone you just met is.

I was born and raised on a lovely little island known as Cape Breton and currently live in the little-big city of Halifax. I love both of these places more than any other place I've ever been. Cape Breton has enough scenic beauty to overload Instagram and the kindest, friendliest people you'll ever meet. My new location,  Halifax , is ideal for the 20 something's like myself. It's filled with music and nightlife, tons of delicious local eateries and

Wine. A beverage enjoyed in many places and by many people. It can be enjoyed with friends at dinner, as a way to unwind after work, as a technique to get the creative juices flowing, or all of the above and then some (like in my case). Whatever the reason for the glass of fermented grapes in your hand, wine is a beverage most enjoyed while wasting time. Heck, wine itself is a form of wasting time, taking months and years to brew. It's probably the most delicious waste of time there is... For me, the time I tend to enjoy most in life is the time I'm "wasting". What I mean by "wasting" is this: I could easily be doing something else with my time, something more productive (like laundry). But instead, I decide to browse Pinterest , or try a new quinoa recipe , or drink a bottle of wine, or...BLOG! And thus, Waste time...Not wine, was born. To be clear, although I like to indulge in the art of wasting time, wine is one thing I never waste. Anyway, this b
