Happy Sunday! Man, I love weekends! Correction: I love SUMMER weekends! This weekend my Hubster and I went to Jasper (for the second weekend in a row actually!) to enjoy in the splendour that is The Rocky Mountains! We chose to camp this weekend, and although a little chilly at night, it’s been splendid.

Coconut & Lemongrass Raw Vegetable Salad
When I was 20 I had my first real travel experience. Yes, I’d been to Disneyland and different areas in Canada before then, but I had never travelled overseas. This first big trip changed me forever.
