Turns out if I have a recipe to follow I too can bake caveman cookies. Problem becomes if there are 2 similar recipes with conflicting times to leave things in the oven, waiting an average of the 2 times doesn’t necessarily work. So half are burned. Grumble.

I flipped through about half of the stack of evaluation surveys. For the question about “What things did you like most about the day”, I noticed three girls that […]
Today I am going to U of T campus to talk to the group of young women who are participating in the Gr8 Designs for Gr8 Girls workshop. Super exciting to tell them all about being a software developer (*not* programmer) and to help break down the gender stereotypes that exist around my profession. Should […]
