No, I do not have my BlogPodium recap post ready to share quite yet. It’s fully in the works though so it won’t be long before you see it published here. In the meantime, I’ll continue with the regular 20 Below column by showing off this cool Luci tea infuser from Indigo*

*One of the sponsors of BlogPodium, in fact!
I was recently given a tour of the CIGI Campus, one of my favourite buildings in Waterloo. The CIGI Campus was built on the former site of the Seagram’s Distillery and is now home to innovative academic and research programs.
The CIGI Campus is home to the Balsillie School of International Affairs (BSIA) as well as the Centre for International Governance and Innovation (CIGI). I have been fortunate to work with some of the scholars and students at the CIGI Campus and I am impressed by their professionalism, intelligence, and the pride they have for the work that they do.
The CIGI campus is impressive for several reasons. First, the exterior’s modern design is a striking focal point in the Uptown Waterloo landscape. Second, the interior architecture is innovative, bright, and sleek. Finally, the clean lines, repetitive forms, and interior courtyard are attractive and inviting. Let’s take a tour, shall we?

*Or maybe I’ll see you at BlogPodium tomorrow! I’m so excited to present with Giulia Doyle of Audrey’s, meet some of the sponsors, and congratulate Jen and the BlogPodium team in person for all the work they have done to make this event happen.
While I would never play tennis in any of these outfits, or wear them to a watch tennis match for that matter, I do appreciate the styling of these outfits and the commitment to white fashion styling.

Little did I know that a few months after taking this photo of rows of DAP caulking I’d be loading up my shopping cart with it. That’s what a reno will do – it’ll force you to learn about things like caulking.
DAP Caulking, $2.88
I am looking forward to meeting the DAP at BlogPodium this upcoming weekend. Thanks in advance to DAP for sponsoring the event.
