Urquhart Castle Urquhart Castle By Megan Cutler | March 30, 2015 | Comments 0 Comment We didn’t have much time on our first trip to Scotland so we had to prioritize the sites we wanted to see. We all agreed it wouldn’t be a trip to Scotland if we didn’t see castles. We skipped the more touristy ones in favour of Dunnotar and Urquhart. The tourist center at Urquhart castle … Read More Read More
Spring Waffles Spring Waffles By Megan Cutler | March 16, 2015 | Comments 0 Comment It’s hard to believe how fast the year has gone; it’s already time for spring break! This year, a very good friend of mine is making the journey north to admire our beautiful mountains, eat our fabulous poutine, and make use of our nifty guest room. So I will be AFK for the next two … Read More Read More
Dunnotar Castle Dunnotar Castle By Megan Cutler | February 23, 2015 | Comments 3 comments Of all the things we saw while we were in the UK, Dunnotar Castle has to be my favourite. Don’t get me wrong; Stonehenge was beyond amazing, and something I’d longed to see most of my life. But never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined visiting a place like Dunnotar Castle (perhaps partly … Read More Read More
Stuff and Things Stuff and Things By Megan Cutler | February 16, 2015 | Comments 0 Comment I’ve written at length about the amazing adventure my husband and I embarked upon a year and a half ago when he accepted a job in the UK. I don’t think either of us believed it would actually happen when he received the email invitation. But it did and, amazing as it was, I’d be … Read More Read More
The History of Scotland The History of Scotland By Megan Cutler | February 2, 2015 | Comments 1 comment The National Museum of Scotland has a unique wing dedicated to the complete history of Scotland. It spans about five floors, moving up a tower from the base of the museum to the top. Many museums present the history of a location with the layout of their exhibits, but none quite so thoroughly as the … Read More Read More
Comfort Food Comfort Food By Megan Cutler | January 19, 2015 | Comments 0 Comment It’s been awhile since I talked about cooking. While we lived in the UK, we had a small kitchen and didn’t have room to store the bulk ingredients you usually keep stocked in the pantry. We made due as best we could but, now that we’re back, we’re happy to stretch our culinary muscles once … Read More Read More
The Athens of the North The Athens of the North By Megan Cutler | January 12, 2015 | Comments 2 comments I rarely fall in love with a place right away. I take comfort in the familiar, and travel to any new location makes me feel out of sorts, at least for awhile. But I fell in love with Scotland the minute I set foot in it. There’s a beauty in the rolling hills, soaring mountains … Read More Read More
Memento Mori Memento Mori By Megan Cutler | December 22, 2014 | Comments 0 Comment It’s that time again; time to set aside the daily grind and enjoy the winding down of the year. Now that we’re back on the Canadian side of the ocean, we’ll be joining family for the usual celebrations. As such, the blog won’t be updating regularly, but check back on the first for the annual … Read More Read More
For the Love of It For the Love of It By Megan Cutler | December 15, 2014 | Comments 0 Comment Perhaps ironically, shortly after our move to England I wrote about two kinds of happiness; the happiness you find where you are, and the happiness you chase. I think it’s important to find happiness every day, to enjoy as many moments as you can. Ultimately, life is short, too short to waste on discontent. Some … Read More Read More
