Sarah Robinson

Sarah, aka MrsARob, is just a girl babbling her way through life. Like her favourite wine she is refreshing, zippy, and a little edgy. She tells stories about travel, retail therapy, life with a rescue pooch and other nonsense. What started out as just an outlet when her bestie was diagnosed with breast cancer, writing grew into a passion for Sarah. She loves connecting with people and igniting emotion. You can read more of her babble at www.itsallaboutme.ca or find her mad tweeting and gramming as @MrsARob both on Twitter and Instagram. She’s got one of those Facebook pages too.

Why anyone would consider going gluten-free was always beyond me. I mean, “gluten-free” sounds about as delicious as eating cardboard, right?

“Murder by the Book” A Victorian Who-Dunnit? at Upper Canada Village

by Sarah Robinson

More twists than a rollercoaster. More drama than a teenage relationship. This is what you can expect at Upper Canada Village’s murder mystery dinner by Eddie May Mysteries.

Hopeful (again) Hearts – Rescue Dog Adoption Tips

by Sarah Robinson

Friday, December 13, 2013. The day I dreaded from the moment we brought her home. Hubs & I had taken our beloved Bernese Mountain Dog, aka the #suckhole, to the vet where we unexpectedly spent our final hours with her. At only 6 1/2 years old, cancer had taken hold of her body, attacking her organs. She …
