I just wanted to take this chance on the occasion of IWD to acknowledge all the fabulous women in my life. For a girl who was convinced that guys made better friends up until about five years ago, I have really come to see how amazing it is to have so many supportive, fabulous, fierce, talented and funny women around me. I would get in so much trouble for trying to list them, so:

Thanks to my girl gang who almost single handedly got me through the roughest three years I ever hope to have in my life (there are a couple boys who did too, hence the almost - don’t worry).

Cheers to the dedicated, amazing chicks I am so lucky to work with day in day out, night after night, weekends, holidays…and the brilliant woman who is a honourary member of our tiny organizer posse. You three have taught me so much, and your commitment to the movement and the people in it impresses me daily.

My favourite cake in Vancouver comes from Anna’s cake shop. This is the best fresh fruit cream cake ever.

I don’t even think I could give up this cake for one of Cupcakes’ little pieces of perfection. You may not believe this, but my favourite cupcake is called Diva - the chocolate cake with pink vanilla butter cream and sprinkles. I love Denman as well, with raspberry infused chocolate cake and chocolate icing.

Must be dinner time.

Celebrity Cellars is going to sell out of the Madonna wine before I get any!
