Lime Margarita Freezies: The Mr. Freeze for adults. Make these freezer pops for grab and go at your summer BBQ party, or simply have a frozen margarita whenever you want one. Yes, there is tequila in them, so don't share with the kids!

Lime Margarita Freezies

By //  by Anne Radcliffe Leave a Comment

I'm going to save your life with Lime Margarita Freezies. Yes. These are just like Mr. Freezies, but with margaritas inside of them. (Yes. Tequila is included.) Margaritas are awesome, but you know what sucks? Making margaritas.  I know; it's not rocket surgery. But keeping around the materials, to have ice on hand, to whip out the blender... that's a pain in the arse. And sure, there's these handy little frozen cans of the mix. But if you're going to use one of those, …

Adult-Only Mocha Baileys Fudge Pop Recipe

By //  by Anne Radcliffe Leave a Comment

If you're hot, and if you like fudgsicles or iced caps, then I've got just the thing for you: My adult-only Mocha Baileys Fudge Pop Recipe. This poor little bottle of Baileys I had was sitting all forlorn like in my liquor cabinet. Usually it's waiting for winter because the only thing I ever tend to use it in is a coffee drink. Coffee drinks, of course, do not make the ideal hot summer drink (and it's supposed to be hot AF this weekend in Ontario!). After I spotted the Baileys, I …

5 of the Nicest Waterfalls in Hamilton Worth Taking the Kids for a Walk Around

By //  by Anne Radcliffe Leave a Comment

Did you know: there's over 100 waterfalls in Hamilton and the surrounding area. Niagara Falls might be the biggest in Southern Ontario, but Hamilton takes the crown for "City of Waterfalls." Many of these waterfalls are quite beautiful and are part of the trails and green belt parks! That means many of the nicest waterfalls in the region are accessible and perfect for families with little hikers. As a resident of the area, I love taking my family for nature hikes on weekends. Since we usually …

5 of the Best Beaches in Southwest Ontario to Take the Family

By //  by Anne Radcliffe Leave a Comment

The beaches in Southwest Ontario are great family destinations - often underrated because they're not a tropical destination. For people who haven't enjoyed the local spots, they're missing out! Many are conveniently located along Lake Huron and Erie's coastlines, which means they're close enough for day trips and weekend stays. With so many great beaches in Southwest Ontario to take small kids right here at home, there's no excuse! Find one near where you live and go enjoy sand between …

15 Science Fiction Films That Will Break Your Brain

15 Science Fiction Films That Will Break Your Brain

By //  by Anne Radcliffe 2 Comments

Do you like haunted houses? Roller coasters? Do you enjoy that rush that comes from physical thrills? That's how I feel about a really good sci-fi movie--except all the loopty-loops happen in the head. Everyone should be a fan of science fiction films. It's seldom that a film of any other genre (no matter how entertaining) will do what a science fiction film can do: surprise you, and really, really make you think. Here's a tribute to, and a list of, all of my favourite science fiction films …
