week in review

deep thought for the week: is the Internet a precursor to a fully conscious collective mind? Even sitting with what that might mean, kind of makes my own mind hurt a little bit.

This is my favourite new web shopping resource du jour. Envirowoman would be proud.

Fraud warning! I actually know people who got these calls this week.

When I was reading about NASA's Apollo' 17's Lunar Module today (you know, cause I am smart) it reminded me of my alltime favourite Hallmark Cards commercial. Watching this makes me cry each time - without fail (you know, cause I am a softy-softerton)

Do you have a question about anything of a local nature? Have you asked locally?

Planting your garden?
Looking for the best deal in town on thousands of perennial plants? Emerging Hope can help!

events around town
Friday May 11th: The Kaospilots are leaving this party should be epic!!!

got craft - traditional crafts with a twist - a fun and unique event that brings a modern twist to the conventional craft fair. Completely self-funded, got craft was started to fill the void of modern and eclectic summer fairs in the City of Vancouver. What a better way to showcase local designers, enjoy some tasty eats, support the community and of course, buy some handmade goods!
