Fall is about getting back to normal, back to a routine. Almost like the 'real' start of the year. School starts back up, sports and programs get rolling, and the BBQs and summer patio drinks come to an end. So I ask you..how are you starting your fall? What kind of 'routine' do you want to get into?

I love pictures, a lot. Right up there with poutines and popcorn. The love is deep for me.

Regular life is busy. You have your family to look after, your home to clean, your meals to shop for and prepare and your job.

In my opinion it is a must!
