This simple clear glass pitcher is perfect for parties for ice water or fruit punch. I do wish it had a tapered spout for better control when pouring… It’s only $2.49 + tax, so can’t go wrong! Perfect for summer!

Gopan – Rice Bread Maker
Are you not able to enjoy eating any bread made from regular flour (wheat)?
Well no more worries!
Sanyo Electric began selling GOPAN, the world’s first bread maker that can make bread from regular grains of rice! Now that’s amazing! Just throw in some washed rice with water, salt, sugar, and shortening, dry yeast. Then, press START, and in about 4 hours, viola! Rice bread is ready!! And it seem like it does’n’t taste like ‘rice’. It’s a bit more chewy than flour rice, but from the reviews, it seems to taste pretty good. The machine is sold for approximately $600 in Japan. Hopefully, this will spread worldwide and will be available here as well.
Reflections 2013
Every year, the students in the IDEA (Illustration and Design) program at Capilano University take on the big task of managing the art projects to raise funds to support their learning and continued cultural enrichment. I know it’s a huge project, and a lot of work, cuz I went through it too. Though it seems that it gets bigger and bigger every year, so I can’t imagine what the students are going through in trying to push this project through.
The ‘Reflections’ project started off small when the program started out. Each student painted a iconic scenery of Lower Mainland, mostly in the Vancouver area. The paintings were scanned and produced into calendars. Both the original paintings and calendars were sold to raise funds.
As the program grew bigger, and the project picked up in the local media, retail and residents, so did the project. We started producing greeting cards, buttons, and other original paintings. It was a lot of work, but I did learn quite a bit from the experience, from painting, marketing, producing merchandise, printing, online stores, social media and so on.. so it was a valuable project.
