i’d be curious to know how you got linked to the Ottawa Citizen. You seem so far away to be reading from a local paper.
I’m so honoured to be featured! My little challenge right there with the biggies. :-)
And I’m close by Langley! I didn’t know you had family in my area. When are you coming up to visit???
Loved the Made site with the 90 minute shirt.
That whole foods challenge sounds pretty cool!!
Thanks so much for mentioning our sale!
The 90 minute shirt is very cute. I’d love to try it…post wedding crafting and moving, of course.
Again, great tuesday round up! I might go ahead and write an article of my own about that circumcision study. That’s a hot topic if there ever was one!
I’m seriously considering the whole foods challenge. We’ll see.
I entered for the magic bullet, ordered the whole foods book (it sounds great), and loved reading all the circumcision thoughts. Thank you, I love coming to your blog for these tours.. and for the rest of your posts too ( :
