Were You Sexy or Silly on Halloween?

November 3rd, 2010 · 4 Comments · Tossed Salad, Tracy's Posts

I am not a fan of Halloween, never have been really, it always felt silly dressing up. My earliest memory was when I was about 6 years old, I couldn’t decide whether to be Pregnant or a Princess so I was both, a Pregnant Princess! The neighbors didn’t seem surprised. Since I can remember I [...]

Girlfriend Threesomes!

October 27th, 2010 · 6 Comments · Tossed Salad, Tracy's Posts

Have you ever been involved in a Girlfriend Threesome? It can be a lot of fun, confusing, or upsetting if you’re not careful. Each girlfriend needs to be aware and conscious of the others feelings when girlfriend threesomes exist! I have never been involved in one myself that lead to hurt feelings but know friends [...]

Tibetan Singing Bowls

October 25th, 2010 · 7 Comments · Jacquie's Posts, Tossed Salad

I’ve found myself a new toy at the West Coast Woman’s Show over the weekend at the Tradex in Abbotsford. Not a toy, exactly, but still a fun way to relieve stress when I’m sitting at my desk. I usually resort to playing drearily boring games of FreeCell or Minesweeper because I can’t be bothered [...]

My Sister’s “Memories of Tea Time”

October 4th, 2010 · 4 Comments · Guests, Jacquie's Posts, Tossed Salad

Memories of Tea Time – by Anne Janzen reposted with permission from Eat Something Sexy My mother would call us in for tea at around 3 o’clock. I hated being pulled away from my friends, and complained every single time. The kitchen table, the picnic table on the lawn, or on special occasions – TV [...]

My Life Starts When My Eyes Close ~

September 29th, 2010 · 3 Comments · Tossed Salad, Tracy's Posts

Do you ever feel like your life starts when your eyes close. I do. It’s when every single thing in my life is left up to my imagination. I can play dress up and live anything my mind is willing to create. I just let go of who I am and become what I chose. [...]

There Are No Shortcuts To The Finish Line

August 30th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Jacquie's Posts, Tossed Salad

Last week Tracy wrote a piece called Can I Start Again? in which she talked about what it would be like if we could get a free pass or a ‘do over’ at certain times in our lives. Using a great keyboard analogy, she asked if you would chose to Delete certain events? Control others? [...]

Can I Start Again?

August 25th, 2010 · 12 Comments · Tossed Salad, Tracy's Posts

Have you ever wanted to start over because you screwed something up? I think it’s perfectly legal to ask if you can start again. We did it as kids while playing, we’d begin something and if it didn’t go as planned we’d ask if we could start over. When taking pen to paper to write [...]

Rotten Tomatoes for Eat Pray Love – the Movie

August 16th, 2010 · 3 Comments · Jacquie's Posts, Tossed Salad

The scenery is nice to look at, and Julia Roberts is as luminous as ever, but without the spiritual and emotional weight of the book that inspired it, Eat Pray Love is too shallow to resonate. This quote is from the Rotten Tomatoes, a movie review website that allows viewers to rate their favourite films, [...]

Is Fidelity Obsolete?

August 4th, 2010 · 4 Comments · Tossed Salad, Tracy's Posts

I was reading Women’s Health and came across an article by Meghan Rabbitt questioning whether fidelity is becoming obsolete. I cracked up at the picture that was attached to it of a bride standing alone on her wedding cake, on her phone, groom hanging from a helicopter trying desperately to get away…it read “To have [...]

Use it or lose it! Your voice that is…

July 14th, 2010 · 10 Comments · Tossed Salad, Tracy's Posts

Bonnie and I reconnected in person last week and while we were chilling out together we both mentioned that we didn’t have any topics to write about. For me that is unheard of, not because I love to gas off all day long but because I am always ahead of myself, I like to be [...]

Would You Fall For This?

July 5th, 2010 · 10 Comments · Jacquie's Posts, Tossed Salad

My beautiful daughter graduated from high school last week. Three days of special events and festivities so it was rather hectic, to say the least. The day before the official grad celebration ~ you know, the big dress, the hair, the corsage ~ I got a call from a limo service letting me know that [...]

Coffee Tawk

June 21st, 2010 · 3 Comments · Jacquie's Posts, Tossed Salad

My dilemma is my life is all about the kids right now and I don’t have permission to talk freely about them. One is getting married (the dress has been found but that’s all I’ll say on that subject), another graduates from high school next week and the third is … doing a lot of [...]

Girl on Girl Talk

June 14th, 2010 · 13 Comments · Jacquie's Posts, Tossed Salad

People who know me well know I’m not a phone talker. Put it this way: I’m not a recreational phone user. The phone, to me, is for making reservations, ordering Chinese food, booking hair appointments and locating teenagers who are out past curfew.  I rarely sit on the phone just chat. Now, if someone has [...]

What is Love? There are various kinds of love; Passionate love, Lustful love, Brotherly love, Mother’s love, Compassionate love, Unconditional love, the list goes on. When I go out walking I see the same elderly man pushing his wife in her wheel chair around the neighborhood, they have love that I am certain many of [...]

June 7th, 2010 · 7 Comments · Jacquie's Posts, Tossed Salad

Wow. Lots of heavy stuff being talked about here lately. I’m gonna switch gears a little and start my Monday off with a lighter heart. Yes, I did think about the Gulf spill this morning while driving my daughter to school but I had to shut it out. I could feel my mood shrinking. So [...]

Born on Valentine’s Day it only seems natural that I am attracted to love. Although my idea of love has changed over the years I still believe in true love. I grew up believing that love lasts forever. I still believe true love does. There are three brain systems of love according to Helen Fisher [...]

Finding Lyrical Beauty in…Change ~

May 13th, 2010 · No Comments · Tossed Salad, Tracy's Posts

When I created May’s header and theme ‘Finding Lyrical Beauty in… Change’, it was meant to reflect all the changes that are happening in my life right now. I have never feared change. Change is a fresh start, a new beginning which moves you forward in life. It allows room for growth. Whether change was [...]
