Let’s rewind to winter 2008. Me, my beach ball belly and my husband step into a big box baby store full of dreams of tiny yellow onesies. What greets us is aisle upon aisle of plastic, primary-coloured product. Strollers, diapers, breast pumps, soothers, a billion bottles and toys.

So if you are like me and 75% of other Canadians who struggle to get some ZZZ’s, one of these three products might be just what you need.

 I love to bake, and have since my high school Home Economics teacher introduced me to scones many moons ago. I’ve been coveting a KitchenAid Stand Mixer for as long as I can remember.So I was beyond excited to take the newly released KitchenAid Artisan Mini for a test drive.

The super powerful, high-speed Vitamix is like the Ferrari of the blender world. In fact, unlike other blenders whose power is measured in watts, the Vitamix motor is measured in horse-power, which means you can use it to blend almost anything you want without the risk of burning it out.
