Hello, WA Community!

I am a 49 years old empty nester, happily married, and mother to two grown daughters who are independent, and two doggie-girls who aren't.

Update: I'm now a grandmother (it's heartwarming, but hard on personal vanity when a little one calls you "Gramma"!).

I live in Vancouver, Canada, where I have owned a health food manufacturing business with my husband since the '90's. We focus on diabetic-friendly and keto bakery items, and sell to chains across Canada.

In my previous life before business, I modeled locally and worked as a sales consultant at a weight loss center. Then, I went in search of larger commissions and became a realtor (which I ended up hating).

I love to research (yup - nerdy that way), write, shop (especially online), exercise, play and EAT!

Thanks for stopping by - say hello and introduce yourself!

- Laurie
