Good news, especially for those expecting!
Nima'ma is now open at 2948 West 4th Ave. They had a soft launch on Sunday April 6th, and are now open Monday through Saturday, 10am to 6pm and Sundays 12-5pm.

On a less-positive note, some businesses are now gone from the area as of this month, including Saffron Fourth Avenue and Memory Lane Cards. I'm sure I speak for many when I say that they will be missed, and we wish them the best in future endeavours.

The new Starbucks at 4th & Bayswater opened just last week. It is lovely inside, with a mix of cool glass tiles, woods and dark neutrals, plus a stunning orange-red wall near the back. There are several seating areas, from big chairs at the front, to a banquette, and small tables and chairs.
Photos are not posted just yet... they'll be coming as soon as this volunteer has a nice sunny day off to take pictures and update this web site.

Tonight I enjoyed an evening of music at Open Mike Tuesday at Wired Monk! I also just found out they now have their very own web site:

Construction at 4th & Bayswater looks nearly complete...
I just heard from a new retailer who will be taking a space in the new Black Swan building, next to the new Starbucks, and it is something very new for the area - maternity!
Teena Legris, Owner/Director let me know a few things about the store:
"A little bit about Nima'ma Maternity:
- I will carry products will vary from mid to high end local and
international maternity apparel, organic cosmetics and skincare,
Canadian-designed jewellery and a small selection of maternity-related accessories.
- Nima'ma means My Mother in Cree to celebrate and honour motherhood (my mother is Woodland Cree).
I have my first print ad in the Feb/Mar issue of West Coast Families' Yummy Mummy section (p. 36) and will have another one in March with The Mompreneur! At the moment, I'm having my website designed but you can see the holding page at www.nimama.ca"
