🍕 Foodie Friday along the Canal 🌙

We had dinner with Alex’s Mom and Dad at The Lock Wood Fired Pizza in Port Colborne, didn’t disappoint — crispy crust, canal breeze, and conversation that lingered longer than dessert.

✨ Nothing beats a summer night walk along the water after a good meal — these parts of Niagara make these moments feel easy, peaceful, and worth slowing down for.

Whether you’re a local or just visiting, add this spot to your weekend list… you’ll thank me later.

👇 Tell me your go-to pizza topping!

The heat is on… and so is the blender. 
Alex had a long night (rental alarms, real estate life ), so I whipped up this nostalgic Creamsicle Cocktail to bring a little joy back into the day.

It’s creamy, citrusy, cold, and basically summer in a glass. I might have had a head start… but don’t worry — I’ll save him some!

 Got a go-to summer drink? I’m taking requests for next week.

I’ve been golfing once a week
for the past three years.

Every Thursday.
Walking the course.
Clearing my head.

It started as a way to connect with girlfriends
and sneak in a little exercise.

But somewhere along the way,
it became something more.

A reset.
A ritual.
A way to stay grounded in the middle of a busy week.

Lately, I’ve been craving more of that.
More practice.
More peace.
More balance.

So I’m carving out space for a second golf day—
not just to get better at the game,
but to get better at making room for myself.

Because balance doesn’t just happen.
You build it.

What do you do to feel balanced each week?

🤔 Listing looks great—but no offers?

Today’s buyer is cautious. They have time, choices, and high standards. If your home doesn’t feel like a deal or show like a dream, they’ll scroll past.

🎯 This market requires strategic positioning, not just pretty pictures.

Stay tuned for the other half of the series, this time we will hear the top painpoints of Buyers!

🍴 Foodie Friday: Lunch at Social Graces 🥂

A little weekday lunch date with Alex last week while he was on vacation — a rare treat to sneak away midday and enjoy good food and even better company.

Social Graces in Ridgeway never disappoints: cozy atmosphere, beautifully crafted plates, and a perfect reminder to slow down and savour.

✨ Local tip: Their seasonal menu is always worth checking out, especially if you’re looking for a go-to lunch spot near the lake!

🌊 God Moment 🌊
There’s something about the sound of the waves — steady, strong, and constant.

Being near the water grounds me. It calms my mind and resets my perspective.

When life feels like too much, this is where I go to find balance.

🔑 God Moment 🔑
These first-time buyers and I spent months sorting through listings, exploring neighbourhoods, and learning what truly mattered most to them.

Today, they get the keys to a great starter home — one that checks the boxes and starts their next chapter.

It was a journey, but it was also fun. Every showing brought us closer to the right fit.

Big congratulations to this lovely couple — your new beginning starts now!
