Wired Woman
Are you interested in an evening get together with other like-minded women with a career in technology? Do you have a penchant for ultra-feminine, sparkly Swarovski jewelry?
This Thursday, April 2nd, Izzy and Buds Jewelry Designs will be participating in the Wired Woman Fashion Show & Networking Event. Come down for the show, meet some great women and treat yourself to a little something special. Labels: Fashion-Health-Beauty, Izzy_and_Buds
¿Bulli, Gaudi y Jesee?
Three eccentric Spaniards all with a common passion to create dramatically visual art which is subjective to the eye of the beholder.Ferran Adrià, world renowned chef of El Bulli has created much controversy amongst food purists that describe his unparallelled dishes as molecular gastronomy. While this type of experimental fare doesn't really tickle our culinary appetite, there is a morbid curiosity within us to go just for the adventure. With limited reservations (open June to December) accepted only on one single day in October for the following year, I would hope that my U2 ticket buying experience rubs off ;)In preparation for a recent photo shoot with Martin Krzywinski from Lumondo Photography, I directed Jesee to create some extraordinary pieces for himself and not just something uninspired for the mainstream market. One of the results was this pair of three-dimensional hematite and crystal earrings...a purely unconscious resemblance to Gaudi's avant-garde design of La Sagrada Familia...crazy minds think alike.Labels: Arts-Film-Music, Come_y_Calla, Espana, Izzy_and_Buds
No Joe Mojo
Sadly, even with the addition of a second show, we won't be able to catch Joe Jonas and his bros when they come to Vancouver this summer on June 30th. *smirk* Instead, we will be at the kick-off of the
U2 360° Tour at Camp Nou in BARCELONA!
I had my alarm set for 1:57 a.m. (9:57 in Spain) Wednesday morning, so that I could log on to
Ticketmaster and purchase the concert tickets. It was an exercise in frustration waiting for the system to process my request, much like online Boxing Day shopping at
Future Shop. After being booted off the site twice *grrr* and some twenty-eight minutes later...said tickets secured!
I crept back into bed hoping to catch a couple more hours of sleep before facing the daily grind, but the excitement was too great to let my brain settle down. Drifting in and out of consciousness, I dreamt that I was rocking out at the show with
Rafa.
Barely awake, I made myself a double espresso and checked for ticket availability again at 5:30 a.m. ...SOLD OUT. *happy dance*

Bowen Goodness
A weekend to recharge with good friends cures all woes. A scrumptious birthday dinner party, Sunday brunch at Artisan Eats and a bagful of my favourite soap from
Naked's new store.
All is good and
je suis bien dans ma peau.
