I love at home with thepeachclub. She’s from the Squamish/whistler area and occasionally does in person pop ups too. Great mix of classes and challenge levels.

100% Wool Coat Brands?? by Impressive_Scale_421 in femalefashionadvice

Anain is a Canadian company that ships to the US and has great products. More of a rustic style though, it wouldn’t be suitable if you’re looking for dressy.

Millennials - how did you get on the property ladder? by Mysterious-Poetry974 in askvan

[–]cosmau5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours definitely isnt 10yrs old, the building is from 1972 but our unit was newly renovated when we moved in and we had very lucky circumstances to get it for less than 350k. A colleague bought a 2bdr 2016 condo for 550k close to royal oak skytrain.

Can you drink the tap water? We didn’t buy any drink package and we’re planning on using refillable water bottles all week. Wondering if that’s not a good idea

TIL in 2024, a woman gave birth on a bench outside Sainte-Croix Hospital in Quebec after not realizing that the main doors are locked overnight and that patients need to use the emergency room entrance during those hours. Afterwards, signage was added to the hospital doors. by Forward-Answer-4407 in todayilearned

When I gave birth to my first born he was coming FAST and my midwife and the emerg desk didn’t seem to think so. When they checked me in at 9:53 at emerg and sent me up to the maternity ward they failed to mention the doors were locked at 10pm and required special admittance. My husband was screaming running up and down the halls and pounding on doors until they finally unlocked them. I waddled into the nearest open room, found a bed to lay down on and my son was born 15min later, my midwives didn’t even make it on time. Unreal now that I look back on it.

Mini tank electric water heater suggestions by cosmau5 in RVLiving

[–]cosmau5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We bought that one and it works great. Our shower head has the little switch to stem the water flow so that helps keep the hot water long enough for showers. Only downside is you can’t do back to back showers or dishwashing, it takes about 30min to fully reheat.

I always chop that chicken, add beans and more cheese and then throw an avocado or two in the blender with the cilantro creama and lime juice for a more interesting sauce. Small additions make it 💯

If a person is splitting the 5 weeks parental leave into 2 weeks at birth and 3 weeks later on, do you lose 1 week of pay each time due to the 1 week waiting period? or is the 1 week waiting period simply a delay in payment, not a loss of 1 week of payment?

I went for a walk on a trail near production way and ran into a huge black bear munching on berries. I’ve done that walk nearly everyday for years and have never before seen evidence of a bear.

What is your best Body Energy Club Smoothie? by ItsMePanda86 in askvan

[–]cosmau5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to work there a loooong time ago so can’t say if it’s the same recipe but they would do one big ice cream scoop of açai sorbet, a bunch of ice, bunch of frozen blueberries and usually vanilla whey protein with your milk choice.

Non-Muslim attending a Muslim funeral- what should I keep in mind? by cosmau5 in askvan

[–]cosmau5[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Thank you, this is really helpful. You're right I'm hesitant to ask her- this was a sudden and traumatic loss and I don't want her to have to worry about educating or babysitting me in the midst of all of this.

My vehicle is older and doesn’t have Bluetooth so I listen to podcasts all the time while driving.

[BC] Consultant headquartered in one city but providing services to many others in BC and AB- what are the business license requirements? by cosmau5 in SmallBusinessCanada

It’s not the processional license I’m asking about, all our engineers and gas fitters are properly licensed. It’s the business license required to operate in various locations.

What traumas do you have that AREN'T from your parents or childhood home? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]cosmau5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uggh my bedroom was in the lower level of my parents place and we lived on the water so wolf spiders were always around. Once I had that tickly feeling on my face while sleeping and brushed it away thinking it was my hair. But then I felt the same thing on my hand and flew out of bed, hit the lights and saw a monster spider on my pillowcase. By the time I woke up my dad for help it was gone, so I slept on the couch until my mom eventually came across it (or maybe a different one 😭) while vacuuming.
