SHAREABLE Tip #2 – MEN – SHAVE IN THE SHOWER!

Multi-tasking for men! Men, you know this is true, so why aren’t you doing it?



MEN – SHAVE WHILE SHOWERING – FOR A BETTER SHAVE!
Not only is this time saving, but it will make shaving easier! The humidity of your shower will keep your skin moist and your pores open thereby making your hair softer and easier to remove.

What to do:
  1. Get yourself a fog-free or shower mirror. (Otherwise, rub in some of that same shaving cream onto your mirror till it’s clear and that should keep it fog-free for weeks!)
  2. Wash face, then lather face with shaving cream or gel, or just use bath soap.
  3. Lather body with soap – take your time, this gives the shave cream time time to soften your beard. Shave cheeks first, neck next, and finally the upper lip and chin. This order is important as it leaves the toughest whiskers till last, giving them more time to soften.
  4. Then rinse, dry your face off and apply the usual after shave or moisturizer.

SHAREABLE Tip #1 - HONEY FOR YOUR TUMMY!

It's all about the honey, honey. ;)

Don't like yogurt but want the same benefits for your digestive system? SWITCH TO HONEY!




DON'T LIKE YOGURT BUT WANT THE SAME BENEFITS FOR YOUR DIGESTIVE SYSTEM?
SWITCH TO HONEY!
A tablespoon of honey daily is needed to reduce gas-producing toxins and help keep healthy bacteria in the colon and in the intestines in check!

Niagara’s First Snow Fall in Autumn with a Few Hungry Squirrels Enjoying Some French Fries



Yes, it’s still Autumn. Winter actually begins around December 21-22, so Autumn isn’t officially over yet. The leaves haven’t ALL fallen, but the first snow fall for the Niagara region has arrived and I have managed to capture some hungry squirrels snacking on some french fries.

The Vampire Bride: Lisa’s Scary Halloween Costume

Lisa is very artistic, especially when it comes to applying make-up and dressing up for the right occasion. I always love her work and this year, around Halloween time, she impressed us all again with her latest themed costume – The Vampire Bride.


For me, the scarier the better so when I found out she was going to be a Vampire Bride at a local Long Term Care home, I just had to be there to capture a few shots. Some people were actually afraid to look at her. It’s those eyes I tell ya!

NIGHTMARES FEAR FACTORY - Niagara Falls (The REAL but Comical FACES OF FRIGHT)





It's that time again folks! So let the nightmares begin!

The Nightmares Fear Factory is a haunted house attraction in Niagara Falls, Ontario, (across from Casino Niagara) and is the oldest haunted house in North America in continuous operation.

I’m still gathering up the courage to enter this ‘two-time Niagara Falls Attraction of the Year‘ haunted house which is said to be THE scariest haunted house attraction in Niagara Falls.

It’s roughly a 15 minute walk-through attraction that preys on each visitor’s fears and phobias. 15 minutes! That’s a long time folks to be in a constant nail-biting state of paranoia!

Go here to get directions.

As the story goes…
The haunted house is built on the site of the once industrious Cataract Coffin Factory where eccentric proprietor Abraham Mortimer dedicated every waking hour to surveying the progress of his domain.

At night, the old man was tormented and taunted by young hooligans. Abraham would chase the riff-raff from their pranks and dares. They always laughed at his threats… until one fateful night Abraham confronted a rowdy group of thrill-seekers. In the ensuing struggle, a stack of solid oak coffins overturned, and Abraham was crushed to death!

The guilty ran off and were never apprehended for their part in the gruesome murder.



Soon after the funeral, Abraham Mortimer’s coffin was found unearthed and empty!

To this day it is said, he walks the halls for revenge on those who dare trespass on his beloved, and now abandoned factory.
