Does Disney Keep Its Magic In A Post Trump World?

by Kelly Given Williams

I went to Disney World a week after Donald Trump was inaugurated. I’m glad we went so soon after he was sworn in because there is a good chance he will sign an executive order banning all magic from the place if he’s given enough time. To be honest, I was leery about heading south …

Baked Pancakes Are a Thing and We Couldn’t Be Happier About It

by Maija Craig

What are baked pancakes?  This is always the question when someone asks me for easy breakfast or brunch recipes and I tell them baked pancakes. Whether you’re trying to avoid spending tons of time flipping pancakes or are hosting a brunch and need something kid-friendly, baked pancakes are perfect. Don’t get me wrong, there will …

by Candace Sampson

If you travel to The Islands of Tahiti and don’t get a Taurumi massage, then you’re not only missing out on one of life’s most relaxing pursuits, but you’re also failing to fully immerse yourself in the Polynesian experience. It’s like visiting Paris and not having a croissant; it’s cultural blasphemy. Don’t take my word …

Budget, Gourmet And Unique Dining Options In Mont Tremblant

Trolls Helped Me See What’s Important

by Jennifer Pitt

I am a working mom of a very busy 3.5-year old, and with my husband working a night shift, we don’t get enough time in the day to just be together. It’s tough, and we absolutely cherish the time we do find; so no, that laundry pile is going anywhere any time soon. A lot …

Essential Guide to Visiting Tahiti: What to Know Before You Go

by Candace Sampson

Before you go to Tahiti, here’s what you need to know. For most people, visiting The Islands of Tahiti is a “bucket-list” destination. I was lucky to check this one off my list relatively early, when I was invited on a  Tahiti Tourisme press trip. For years, I carried constructed notions of what Tahiti would …
