Hello, my name is Lindsay and welcome to my channel. I am a wife, and stay at home mom of four, and I live in Eastern Canada, in the Maritimes. On this channel you'll find school lunch ideas, recipes and just real life of a stay at home mom of four. Thanks so much for stopping by; I hope you'll join our family. 😊
We went to that water park in PEI a decade ago-kids had a blast. Can't believe Ben wore that bracelet for almost a year-that's dedication. All your suppers were outstanding-man, I wish I was at your table eating all of that (I'll do the dishes). I'll try that cast iron skillet in the fall. So sweet the way all the kids gather to play at the table whilst you cook supper! Reminds me of my childhood. There were 5 kids in total and the last 4 were all one year apart. So we had a lot of fun together (but I bet we were noisy-my poor mom)
Thanks, Lily! I was surprised Ben's bracelet lasted that long!! He only had to make it until August! Lol they love the water park in PEI, and they are all thrilled to be going back! I love when the kids all play/draw at the table when I'm cooking. I wish I had a bigger kitchen for that, a kitchen where people can gather. Being a year apart is nice, I think it helps siblings stay connected. Audrey and Emily are our biggest gap, the others are 2.5 years apart. I hope you are having wonderful weekend! It's been pouring rain here all day. 🌧️☔
Love seeing all your Tupperware. My aunt was a Tupperware distributor. She wouldn’t get groceries unless she had time when she got home to open everything and put in Tupperware. Her fridge freezer and pantry looked so neat and tidy as they all stacked so nicely. I don’t have the patience to open every thing and put in containers right way
Tupperware has some great containers! And some of their newer ones are so pretty! I wouldn't have the patience to put everything in containers either, but I'm sure your aunts fridge looked so neat and nice! 😊
Lol Emily has more patience than any to brown her marshmallow rather than burn it. Like many, I've been on both sides of that in life lol, even as an adult. I just want it toasted and melty even if burnt and don't like the wait...
@@nikkigallant8412 I also have a one year update video showing how amazing she's doing! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9dRY5KGR2uo.html
Beautiful purse and I'm sure worth the money and less than many of quality. Checked it out but too rich for my blood at the moment. When I do have the funds, I don't mind paying for quality so maybe one day. Not exactly my style but I see in a quick glance they carry other sizes, etc. The grocery haul uff da those prices are 50 percent off? Wow. High. I thought we were high but I have to remember your wages and other costs are different. The prices almost all sounded double to me BEFORE the 50 percent off. Egg price also high. It's interesting in that we both have Walmarts and the price variations, although much at Walmart is a rip imo. I also find it interesting the different flavors of things like Doritos depending on where one lives. I've had Doritos in Mexico where they have entirely different flavors than anything I've ever seen here. Your jalapeno one is one I haven't seen but here we have a few new ones out, a Spicy Mustard I think and a Monterey Jack type of chip, think they called it Jumping jack or some such. Almost none are worth the price any longer imo, they have dialed down the seasonings and the chips themselves taste like cardboard these days. I thought it was my taste buds as I age but find my daughter and SIL think the same. And not just with Doritos but also with Fritos, Lays, etc. Jmo though. Quality on all has gone down so bad while prices go up. Eggs $4. Ouch. But again I forget your prices, wages and economy is different than in the U.S. I am subscribed but have only watched a handful, don't get a lot of time. I like to see things from other countries and cooking, grocery prices, etc. and from my own. Prices can vary widely here too just from state to state and store to store. Enjoyed it. Have a great day.
It is interesting to compare prices of the same items in different parts of the world. Prices have sky rocketed and continue to creep higher and higher. I don't often buy doritos now, because the price has gone up so much, unless they are on sale. Have a wonderful weekend! 😊
Your kids go to school to the end of June? When do they go back then? My kids are adults so I can't figure out why I like watching what people make for their kids' lunches lol. I also watch someone who packs her husband's lunches. I guess I just like ideas and food videos.
Yes, our kids go to school right until the end of June and they go back after the long weekend in September! I think we all enjoy 'food content' for whatever reason, just different ideas I suppose. Have a great weekend! 😊
Yes, I recognize that cookbook 😃. The sourdough skillet dinner looks delicious ( I’ve never seen that before ) 😋 . I really enjoy Jennifer’s channel too 😍
Audrey is such a brave girl and I know that if I was in that position I would be really scared but we all know that Audrey is brave.God bless you all especially Audrey
Oh how delicious everything looked, especially the meatballs and the pizza burgers. We are in Flagstaff, Arizona tonight, it was a long day of driving, but we made good time. The temperature driving through the desert reached 110 degrees at one time, but it stayed in the high 90's most of the day. Flagstaff is in the mountains and it is beautiful here, tomorrow we head out for Amarillo, Texas, another long day in the car. We ate dinner at a restaurant called the Fat Olive and had pizza, salad and a cannoli for dessert, delicious. It was a restaurant where the food network star Guy Fietti visited and rated them highly, we can see why. Thanks for sharing your dinners with us, that really all. looked and sounded so good.
Thanks, Tania.... Wow!! That is hot!! I couldn't imagine, I've never experienced that kind of heat before! I bet the restaurant was delicious! I hope you guys have a fantastic time!! 😊
Wow Ben, I can't believe you wore that bracelet for almost a whole year, that's amazing! I'll bet you guys had a great time at Shining Waters. Cavendish is getting really busy now and the weather has been fantastic for camping, cottaging and beach fun. Your suppers all looked great Lindsay, it's always nice to get some new ideas to try. I kind of get stuck in a rut sometimes with dinner ideas. Have a great weekend!
Thanks Kerry! Ben was so disappointed when the bracelet broke! He was hoping to wear it until we went back! Lol our weather hasn't been too bad, but not super hot. We are going to Cavendish next month! Have a great week! 😊
Hi Lindsay 👋 😊Everything looks so good 😋. I'll have yo try the English muffin burgers. We love breakfast for supper. Have a great week. 😊 ps I have that Purity cookbook 😊
Such a good video! Everything looks delicious as always. Ben did a great job as your “cook’s help”! I hope you are all enjoying the summer. Please tell the kiddos and Dave hello! God bless ❤
Aww Emily giving Ben the bracelet is the sweetest💖 and yep I have that purity cookbook, got it from my mom cause she had an extra copy. I know I commented on it before. Old school indeed.
It's an oldie for sure! Lots of great recipes, although I don't use it as often as I could. I have so many great cookbooks, but find myself scrolling through Pinterest!! 🤔 Have a great week! 😊
Emily growling at the beginning of the video made me think of my nephew (now 16) when he was that age. There was one time we were in a bathroom in a store and he was making these crazy sounds, and I asked him what he was doing and he said "That's my dragon voice." I asked him to please use a quieter dragon voice :) Hope you all are having a great summer. And Happy Canada Day!
I sometimes prefer for them to empty them as well! I think they like when Emily empties them because then they don't have to do it! Haha I will keep that in mind though. Have a great week! 😊
Awww I’m going to miss Emily emptying the lunches. Maybe you can do a park day, take a picnic where each kid gets their lunch in the lunch pail and Emily can empty them every so often. I hope you guys are having an amazing summer. Can’t wait to see what adventures you go on this year.
Space tomato??? Please tell Jacob I think that is so cool and if you remember please show us if any tomatoes grow. Yahoo no more school-now the long lazy days stretch before us. Filled with sunshine and late mornings and popsicles. I hope you all enjoy them! When my two were little I would invent a theme for each summer and that would help steer our days. We had 'The Summer of Adventure' where we did new things and went on 'adventures' (could be a walk in a forest) another year we had 'Summer of Awesome' where I filled it with awesome things to do-like sprinklers and cottage trip, beach trips, etc. Anyway, the kids totally don't remember ANY of that but I still have the posters I made so if I ever find them I will remind them what an outstanding mom I was-hahaha
Hey, Lily! I will try to make a note to remember to show you the tomato plant!! Jacob is taking such great care of it. I guess they had seeds that were in the international space station, and ones that weren't, and they planted both. A themed summer sounds so fun! Your kids are/were lucky to have such a creative and fun mom! Hoping to make some great memories this summer! Have a great week! I will continue to try and post regularly over the summer! ❤️😊
Hi Lindsay 👋 😊Happy Canada 🇨🇦 Day. I bought some of those garlic naans. Haven't yet tried them. End of school is always bitter sweet for the kids. Great lunches as always until September 😊. It's been rainy on/off here but Canada Day is nice and sunny 🌞 at least. Wishing everyone a great Summer vacation 😊
Happy Canada Day, Dyann. It was chilly and cloudy here today and yesterday. The kids are happy to be on break. Audrey was so sad to leave her teacher though. Hoping to make lots of fun memories over summer!! Have a great week! 😊
Woo Who, Summer Break is finally here, I bet the kids are excited to have the days back for playing and enjoying the pool. Just an observation, but it sure looks like Ben's appetite has improved greatly, he really tries to eat the things he doesn't care for and he is eating pretty much everything that you sent in his lunchbox, yay Ben. Jacob is your best eater and little Audrey's appetite seems to have cut back a bit, maybe too much social time at the lunch table, LOL. Emily will be sad to have no lunchboxes to empty, but I'm sure she'll forget all about them as the summer play time moves on. Thanks for sharing your lunch videos with us, I really enjoy them and watching the kids and Emily show the empties. I hope you are having fun with the kids so far. We are off on vacation in a few days, but I'll catch up with videos when we get back.
Hey Tania, the kids are happy to be on break, and I'm happy to have them home. Ben has been doing excellent with his lunches, Jacob always has, and yes, Audrey is the little social butterfly of the group... she talks more than she eats! Lol I hope you have an amazing trip! See you on here when you get back. Safe travels! ❤️
Happy summer break! Enjoy the time with the kids! I always love when my kids are out on breaks! We have 5 more weeks left. Before we go back to school.
Thanks, Brandie. I'm so happy to have them home. Looking forward to lots of fun and memories. They go back September 5th, but the time will fly! Enjoy the rest of your break, I hope you're kids are having an awesome summer break! 😊🌞
I’m sure the kids are happy to be out of school. I hope you can make it to PEI again this summer. It looked like you had so much fun last year. I’m looking forward to your summer videos!! Have a blessed week and tell everyone hi for me ❤
Thanks, Melanie. The kids are so happy to be on break. I actually booked our trip to PEI a few days ago, the kids are super excited!! I will try to keep up with my regular posting over the summer!! Have a wonderful week! 😊

Loved seeing Emily in the video this week. Her hair looks Soo cute in pig tails. When do the kids go back to school? Hope they had an awesome last 3 days of school.
Thanks, Meredith! Her hair is growing slowly! The kids go back to school in September 5th. Tomorrow is grading day, so they'll officially be on summer vacation! I hope you're having a great week! 😊
Happy last week of school mama! I bought a a box of jumbo mr. freeze at Costco for $15.79.... 70 in the box 😇 feels excessive!! LOL but they will last for sure.
I must be hungry, so many good things in your grocery haul. You did receive a great point deal at Super Store and you got some meat, awesome job. I was wondering with Summer here how do you go about planning the kids lunches, do you plan them out or do you just go with "whatever they seem to want". Summer was always hard for me, when my daughter was out playing she almost never wanted to come in and sit down and eat a meal, so some days were just snacks until supper time. It looks like you are all set for a bit with some delicious food and snacks, thanks for sharing the time with us. Happy Summer!
Thanks, Tania. I do a bit of both for lunches during summer! I sometimes plan a lunch, sometimes the kids fend for themselves. Most days were just doing something simple! I'd like to stay a bit organized with meals! I hope you're having a great week! 😊
Hi, Brenda. Yes, the kids are excited about summer break. I'm looking forward to having them home. I hope you have a great trip! I'm sure our paths will cross!! Have a safe trip! 🙂
