EDITORS NOTE

The Summer sun is blazing and the temperatures, for the most part, remain over 30 with humidity. The dog days of Summer have officially started. With Fall being my favourite season, I’m starting to think about golden hues and cooler evenings.

Not so long ago, I thrived in the Summer months. I took on the biggest and best music festivals in Ontario and returned home many weekends sun-kissed and ready for a REAL vacation to unwind. This year, I took it down a notch (or ten) and ventured to a small festival in Bothwell, Ontario. Quite honestly, I had the best time I’ve ever had.

As with anything in life, things change as we age and grow. As a Grandmother to a two-year old boy, I’m looking forward to taking my Grandson to his first Fall Fair or roaming the fields looking for that perfect pumpkin or group of gourds to add to my outdoor backyard decor.

This Summer I realized that it’s okay that our preferences on how we celebrate Summer changes. No more tents for me!

We have another exciting change at our office. On July 25, 2023, our Graphic Designer Jacqueline Diaz Keller and her husband Riley welcomed a beautiful baby boy named Anthony. We want to wish them a huge congratulations and lots of health, wealth, and happy times ahead. We will miss you Jackie!

While the Real Estate market appears to be on stable ground, changes in interest rates and seasons also affect both buyers and sellers. Now is the perfect time to start planning ahead! By doing small changes to your home, one can reap many rewards for your own peace of mind or even for an upcoming sale. (It’s also a lot cooler for the DIY’ers.)

I know many of our readers are eagerly preparing their kids for Back to School. End of Summer can prove to be difficult as we tend to have many last minute Summer plans, but are fully aware that our children require some sense of routine to make their return to school transition a success. This can lead to a lot of stress and anxiety for both parent and child. In this issue, we offer some great tips on how to make the next few weeks a breeze (or a little more bearable).

Yes, life, like the seasons, is ever changing. We either resist it or conform and embrace it. I hope that you enjoy our final days of Summer, while welcoming and enjoying the beautiful and unpredictable days of September.

Til Next Time,

-Trina Stewart

ROUTINES & RITUALS

It’s hard to believe we’re approaching another school year! In a few short weeks, our kids will say goodbye to the carefree days of summer and start their educational journey once again. While many are ready and excited to see their friends and hit the books, some kids may feel anxious. As parents, creating a plan to set them up early for a smooth transition, encourages excitement and success for a new school year.

Back-to-school rituals are practices or routines that families engage in prior to hitting the books for another year. These rituals can help create a positive mindset and make the transition from summer vacation to school smoother.

HERE ARE SOME COMMON BACK-TO-SCHOOL RITUALS FOR FAMILIES TO TRY THIS YEAR.

SHOPPING FOR SCHOOL SUPPLIES: Shopping for new school supplies like notebooks, pens, backpacks, and other essential items. This activity can be exciting and helps students get mentally ready for the upcoming academic year.

ORGANIZING A STUDY SPACE: Before school starts, create or clean up and organize their current study area at home. A well-organized space can promote productivity and concentration.

SETTING GOALS: Sit down as a family to set academic and personal goals for the school year. Setting clear objectives can help motivate students and give them a sense of purpose.

BACK-TO-SCHOOL NIGHT: Some schools organize an open house or back-to-school night, where parents can meet their child's teachers and learn about the curriculum and expectations for the year.

ESTABLISHING A SLEEP SCHEDULE: During the summer break, sleep schedules can become irregular. Before school starts, establish a consistent sleep routine to ensure

students are well-rested and ready to learn.

BACK-TO-SCHOOL BREAKFAST OR DINNER: Celebrate the start of the school year with a special breakfast or dinner, either at home or at a favourite restaurant.

WRITING LETTERS OR MAKING CARDS: Have your child write letters to their future selves, outlining their hopes and aspirations for the school year. They can read these letters later in the year to see how far they've come.

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL PHOTOS: One of our family favourites! Taking a photo on the first day of school has become a popular tradition for many families. It captures the excitement and growth of the student as they progress through the years.

Rituals can vary based on cultural practices, family traditions, and personal preferences. The most important aspect is to get creative and introduce positive experiences that help students transition smoothly into the new school year.

SERVES 4-6

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Grill/Oven Time: 15-18 minutes

Total Time: 30-38 minutes

INGREDIENTS

• 1 226g (8oz) Inside Round Noble Premium Bison Steak

• Zest and juice of one lime

• 1/2 tbsp (15ml) olive oil

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• Salt & Black Pepper to taste

• 5 large tortillas

• 1 250g package plain cream cheese, softened

DIRECTIONS

Place the steak in a deep container, and add the lime zest and juice, olive oil, garlic clove, and black pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Preheat grill to high heat (400-500° F). Season steak with salt to taste just before grilling. Grill until your preferred level of doneness (130-140° F for medium rare). Allow the steak to rest before chopping into small pieces. Excluding the tortillas, combine remaining ingredients in a bowl, and stir well to combine. Add the chopped steak,

and mix well. Divide the mixture evenly among the tortillas.

PRO TIP: use an offset spatula to make smearing the mixture much easier! Smear the mixture evenly across the tortilla. Roll tightly. Cut the tortilla into 1 inch pieces, and place the pieces on a parchment lined baking tray. Bake (or grill) in a preheated 400° oven (or grill) for 12-15 minutes, until lightly browned. Serve with salsa and sour cream.

• 1/4 cup (57g) seasoned breadcrumbs

• 1/2 cup (115g) shredded nacho cheddar cheese blend

• 1/2 cup (115g) red bell pepper, finely chopped

• 1/4 cup (57g) red onion, finely chopped

• 4-5 slices pickled jalapeño, finely minced

• 1 tsp (5ml) your favourite BBQ rub (we used a fajita rub!)

Selling yourHome this Fall ?

When people sell their home, there are several services they may require to make the most of their investment and ensure a successful sale. Here are some key services:

Real Estate Agent: Many homeowners choose to hire a real estate agent to help them navigate the selling process. A skilled agent can provide valuable advice, market the property effectively, and negotiate with potential buyers to maximize the sale price. To attract potential buyers, effective marketing and advertising strategies are necessary. Your agent may utilize online listings, social media campaigns, traditional print media, and open house events.

Home Staging: Home staging involves arranging and decorating the property to make it more appealing to potential buyers. Professional stagers can highlight the property’s best features and create a welcoming atmosphere, which can lead to quicker and more lucrative sales.

Professional Photography: High-quality photographs are crucial for online listings and marketing materials. Hiring a professional real estate photographer can ensure that the home looks its best in the listing, attracting more potential buyers.

Home Inspectors: Some homeowners opt to have a pre-listing inspection done to identify any potential issues that could affect the sale. Addressing these problems before listing can prevent surprises during the negotiation process.

By utilizing these services, sellers can increase the likelihood of selling their home quickly and at a favourable price, thus maximizing their investment.

Home Improvement Services: Depending on the property’s condition, some sellers may benefit from making necessary repairs or updates to increase the home’s value and appeal.

The Collectors Guide to Canadian Art

The Collectors Guide to Canadian Art

By Helen Fidler | Local Artist & Realtor

Amidst a world saturated with indistinguishable designs and mass-produced decorations, the time has come to liberate ourselves from the ordinary and embrace a lifestyle as multifaceted and dynamic as our very selves. Allow us to introduce you to Helen Fidler and her distinctive approach to art collecting. Be it a brooding oil painting on canvas, a vibrant blown glass sculpture, or an intricate watercolour radiating emotion and intrigue, each original artwork communicates a sense of individuality and flair. Helen has dedicated years to meticulously curating the specific pieces that now grace her living space, affirming, “These are the artworks that resonate with my soul.” Fasten your seatbelts, as we embark on a captivating journey into Helen’s enchanting realm of art collecting, where every creation narrates a story and each wall evolves into a canvas for unparalleled expression.

Art collecting entails more than just acquiring objects; it’s about unearthing the narratives behind each creation and allowing them to interweave with the fabric of our existence. From whimsical sculptures to thought-provoking paintings, our collection metamorphoses into a mirror of our evolving preferences and life encounters.

Frustrated by the recurrent monotony of interior design trends that dominate online mood boards? Art collecting presents a refreshing alternative—an individualistic art haven, meticulously curated to mirror your distinct essence. Whether your heart resonates with abstract expressionism, minimalist sketches, or audacious pop art, your collection matures alongside you, enabling you to honour your distinct journey and articulate your identity in ways that words invariably fall short.

Gone are the days when art collecting was the exclusive purview of the privileged few. Today’s art world extends an open invitation to all who wish to partake in this aesthetic odyssey. Dive into local art bazaars, exhibitions featuring emerging talents, and virtual galleries to unearth hidden treasures that strike a chord within. Each artwork you acquire becomes a brushstroke in the grand canvas of your personal narrative, forging a gallery laden with memories and sentiments.

Kristyn Watterworth From Ontario: Her subject is often a single person or an animal in a bright abstracted background. Acrylic on Canvas. Website: www.kryart.com

Art collecting is a conduit to sparking your creativity. The process of assembling your collection ignites your own artistic aspirations. The vivid hues, intricate detailing, and daring concepts imbued within your artworks kindle your imagination, emboldening you to explore novel avenues of selfexpression, thereby transforming your living space into a pulsating canvas of ingenuity.

However, the realm of art collecting transcends the boundaries of your abode; it serves as a passport to a global community of kindred spirits. Engage in dialogues with fellow collectors, artists, and aficionados of art. Attend gallery unveilings, exhibitions, and workshops to immerse yourself in the kaleidoscopic culture of creativity. Your collection metamorphoses into a conversation starter, inviting others to recount their own stories and perspectives, thus rendering each piece more than a mere adornment—Helen rightly contends that “it’s a universal language with no wrong answers, just emotions and feelings.”

In a world frequently fixated on conformity, curating your private gallery is an avenue to escape the mundane and craft a sanctuary that articulates your story in a dialect as diverse as humanity itself. I am not only an ardent art connoisseur but also an artist. I am occasionally found engrossed in creating oil paintings in my studio at 44 Gaukel St. in Kitchener. My available artworks are accessible for viewing on my website, www.HelensDesign.ca.

My personal collection comprises of artists whose work I passionately endorse, encouraging you to explore their portfolios, follow on social media, and contemplate a future acquisition. Who knows, the piece you procure might one day skyrocket in value. Indeed, art represents one of the most imaginative and distinctive investments, offering returns in manifold dimensions.
