Product Management, Productivity and Personal musings
These posts are from a blog I wrote from 2009 to 2012 called lady business.
{Fred Weiss photos.} The Eastside Culture Crawl is one of my favourite Vancouver traditions. Every year East Van's artists open their studio doors and let the public in. I'm really excited to attend the Crawl with my mom, who will be visiting that weekend. This year, my friend Fred will be opening his studio. His …
This peanut sauce is super easy to make and tastes pretty good! The recipe is from a former roommate, Heather. Every time I make it I think of her and wonder if I'll get to meet her son before he's taller than me! Anyway, you only need four ingredients for this: peanut butter soy sauce …
Ya, lame title, so shoot me. Autumn is still my second true love these days, so I took a few photos to remember it by when it starts to pour rain, which it probably will, any day now. I think this fall is trying to make up for our lackluster summer. Lately, it's been bright …

{I discovered real oatmeal this week. So much better than the quick stuff. With a little bit of butter and brown sugar, it's like dessert for breakfast, but way better for you!} This week been a lovely one. After several busy weeks, things have finally slowed down and I've stopped feeling like I'm running around …
I've been feeling like I'm fighting off a cold lately. In my family being sick (or almost sick) means one thing: hot toddies! (Sans whiskey, when we were kids, obviously.) According to my nana, a hot toddy will cure all that ails you: I have to agree! You'll need: 1 oz. whiskey, bourbon or rum …
{Delicious french toast from La Brasserie last weekend.} The last several weeks have felt crazy busy. I don't know if it's the season or what but I need some down time! I'm looking forward to a bit of time at home this weekend, especially tonight, and a belated Oktoberfest party that I'm super excited about! …
This past weekend, Nick's parents wanted to visit the Capilano Suspension Bridge. The Bridge is a pretty well-known Vancouver tourist attraction and I had been to it on a high school band trip more than ten (eek!) years ago. I didn't remember it well and was a little bit skeptical about the whole thing, since …
{This is actually my left wrist, the worse of the two. The radiologist labelled it wrong.} Today marks two years since I broke both of my arms falling off my bike on the way to work. I wanted to do something to celebrate last year but I ended up having the last of three surgeries …
... my house. I snapped these while Nick and I walked back from returning a co-op car this weekend. It was a perfect fall day, crisp but sunny, perfect for taking photos.
