time flies
Wednesday, August 6th, 2008 by MadeleineIt’s been just over one year since we moved into our new office, which makes it a good time to pause for a moment to reflect on everything that’s happened in those fleeting 365 days. It’s too much to get into at the moment (I’m thinking that I’ll do a “year in review” post in December.) In the meantime I’ve just posted a bunch of new photos to the photo gallery that tell a longer story, but suffice to say that it’s been busy!

Here’s a shot of the current Lunagals: L-R Suzanne, Goni, Jennifer, Charlene, Morgan and me. Sandra is off for the summer working at an organic fruit orchard in the interior of the province, and Lisa is on the other side of the lens. Enjoy your summers, everyone!
Hello out there! I am new to this world of blogging, but excited to be here, and honoured that you are reading this! I am the newest Lunagal to join the gang, and boy am I ever pumped to be a part of the team. I am a compassionate vegan and ecoholic who cares about animal rights and the future of our environment. I was drawn to Lunapads for the eco-aspect in embracing my monthly rendez-vous, and have been a fan of Lunapads for a couple of years now. I found Lunapads after a quest of searching for alternative menstrual products.

That experience immediately put into perspective the impact that we have as women on the environment.
I was born and raised in North Vancouver, and with a few very short exceptions have lived in Vancouver all my life.
Why, hello there! I’ve been the new addition to our little covey for quite a while now, and thought it high time I peep up and formally introduce myself.
I am so excited to be here writing to all you wonderful women who do us the honor of being curious about who we are and what we do. A few brief biographical details about me before we move on to more interesting topics: I was born and raised here in Vancouver, and love the city of my birth passionately. I attended University in Ontario prior to doing a lot of traveling and working abroad. I am an enraptured parent to Genevieve (or Miss Milk, as she is commonly known), who was born on April 10, 2005. I am married to her Dad, a very sweet man called Tim, who is an incredible source of love and support to me. Some other random personal tidbits: I am a left-handed Capricorn with a wicked sweet tooth who is also a proud reformed smoker, tennis enthusiast (although I refuse to keep score), novel-reader, armchair fashionista and sewing fiend.
Hey Lunagals everywhere, here is my intro to the blogosphere. It’s exciting, as I’ve often fantasized about blogging (about the
