Why Our Family’s Gingerbread House Was a Total Baking Fail
It has taken me years to be able to laugh as a parent at our family's epic failed attempt at baking a gingerbread house for the holidays. With my two young sons, we thought it a good idea (what was I thinking?!) to spend a day baking together to give a gingerbread house to grandma for Christmas. Oh, my delusion as a young mother.

Brahma Rakshasa and Fear: The Paradox of Knowledge and Torment
Brahma Rakshasa and Fear: The Paradox of Knowledge and Torment The concept of the Brahma Rakshasa finds its origins in Indian mythology, weaving a complex narrative about fear, knowledge, and the consequences of untamed ambition. A Brahma Rakshasa, as described in ancient Hindu texts, is a learned soul who, despite attaining immense knowledge of the Vedas and scriptures, falls prey to arrogance or fails to pass on his wisdom selflessly. As punishment, he is cursed to exist as a Rakshasa—a demonic entity. This being, who once embodied enlightenment, now roams the earth in a state of torment, consumed by an eternal struggle between wisdom and his monstrous form.

What I've Learned from Living in Montréal...
It must be said that certain towns have a charm of their own, one that you do not appreciate until you leave and see what the wider world provides. I have lived in Montréal since the early 2000s (had visited in 1999 after attending a wedding), and I see no reason to return to my hometown (Hamilton), its loud neighbour (Toronto), or any other region I cannot afford or access without the benefit of an automobile.
