A few months ago I reviewed Kiss & Makeup, which supplies organic, mineral makeup, as well as other salon products and makeup services. I went back recently to get my makeup done for John’s work Christmas party (that was in March) and I decided that another review just wouldn’t be enough. I grabbed Keira as […]

First came the blogging, then the podcasting, then the embracing by the Canucks organization, then the bus posters, then the live blogs, the jumbotron, then an afternoon on GM Place ice shooting a small promo for the Fan Zone. Wish we could have shot this after I got my hair cut and coloured but hey, […]

On my way out of the Talk 1410am studios yesterday (where I do my weekly segment with Pat and Val) I bumped into Gino Vanelli. This inspired me to look up some of his sweet tunes on YouTube, which lead to a total 80s music fest tonight at casa di Bollwitt. Gino Vanelli – Black […]

Last week I was interviewed by Leah and Jay from Giant Ant Media. The goal was to put together a video for New Media BC and they got us all talking about our experience with the events surrounding VIDFEST. You can now view the finished product on the Giant Ant website and I have to […]

Today’s adventure (which I’ve popped into my Day Tripping category) started out with a goal in mind: head up Grouse Mountain and go ziplining. Waking up at 7:30am on this drizzly Sunday morning, we knew that might not happen. Still, we packed up, donned our Gor-tex, and headed for the bus up the mountain regardless […]

We got to talking about some of their upcoming projects, the largest will include a trip to Tanzania. This will be a part of Urban Project, which is “a non-profit society dedicated to […]

The first full day in town was mostly spent visiting with John’s grandma, who is the entire reason for our trip down to Kansas City. In the late afternoon we had some time to walk around the fancy-shmancy shopping district of KC called The Country Club Plaza. This is where you will find Saks, Coach, […]

Today I took in my first Seattle Mariners game and even though the M’s walked away with a loss, it was one really great evening at the ballpark.

Photo credit: Raul on Flickr Walking in to the Cascades Casino in Langley we were turned away immediately. No to worry though, we were actually just redirected to the Coast Hotel around back. We’re sitting in a pretty majestic ballroom with a swanky setup – microphone, projectors, little bitty notepads with the hotel logo on […]

As noted in my liveblog last night, a Flip video camera was bestowed upon me. This morning I did the ceremonial unboxing and tried out the video-only gadget. My first impressions are that it’s very simple and single-purpose, which frankly serves my needs perfectly. I have my iPhone which contains everything I need when I’m […]
