The Zellers Reboot. Will the Nostalgia be Enough?
The Good Old Days I grew up in rural Saskatchewan. The closest city to our farm was Moose Jaw. Trips to the city, especially when those trips were with my grandparents, inevitably involved shopping at Woolco and having dinner at Bonanza.

Welcome to Hugging the Bunny
Who are you? Let’s get right into the introductions. I’m Shayna. A life long prairie girl. Mother to an almost teen age daughter. Fiercely loyal friend. I was the author of a “mommy” blog for quite a few years. It was something I loved. It combined my passion for writing, photography, cooking and being a kick ass mother and allowed…
