DWELLINGS

the windows!

Windows on every exterior wall of a home I live in is essential! To see outside in every room, is a gift I treasure!

The plants I would grow in here! 😍😍😍

PLANTS

This week I’m featuring Eduard’s Greenery here in Winnipeg! It’s a hidden gem with affordable plants and cutie pots! Today we added a new member to the Okwumabua Plant Bible, meet Rory the rubber plant!

The pot is from Ikea and I think it’s a beautiful combination! What types of plants do you have in your house? I’d love to hear about them, comment below!

LIFESTYLE

Fall is my favourite time of the year for clothes and ambience… All of this is so relaxing and calming.

FOOD

Is it too soon to be thinking about baked foods? I mean, it’s still summer… I can’t help it. The planner in me is already looking for new recipes for the colder months. I often love one pot dishes and my photo montage this week is an ode to the skillet!

FITNESS

Do you think stretching is working out? Like, if you spent 45 minutes really getting sweaty and you never jumped once, would you consider that a ‘workout’? Even that word workout! It sounds so sweaty and hard! There must be other words we can use to name our efforts to be fit. I have been toying with the word “training”. “Sorry I missed your call, I was just finishing up training.”, or “Do you want to meet me later to train?”. You get me, or no?

I had a crazy training session last week where I did stretching for 45 mins and wow! I was really sweaty! It was hard! Guys, yoga is hard! The breathing was tricky, but once you breathe and focus, it helps to keep you going.

Even if you don’t think yoga is considered training, like I do, one cannot deny, it is CHALLENGING! If you’re looking for some challenging fitness training, try some yoga, it’s pretty intense.
