Started my pumpkins late but this one is showing promise. I hope it beats the first frost.

Embracing the unknown, and jumping into the fire is often the best (sometimes the only) way to move forward. hazel.codes/posts/2025/0...

When I had all my kids in daycare, it was the single highest cost in my life. My mortgage was a distant second.

Farewell, #VSLive 💜To the amazing organizers and everyone who stopped by to chat, share, and connect—thank you for making it unforgettable. Wishing you safe travels and smooth landings. Until next time ✈️ https://vslive.com/events/san-diego-2025/home.aspx

Want to give an #NServiceBus demo/presentation and show off the Platform tools as well? We have a portable version of the Platform that interacts with a Visual Studio solution using the Learning Transport just for that purpose! Here's how: https://docs.particular.net/platform/platform-sample-package

So excited to giving my talk Boiling the Frog: Migrating to a Modern Message Based System Without Anyone Noticing @vslive.bsky.social in San Diego this week. If you’re at the conference be sure to check it out!

Hazel Bohon is boiling the frog! 🐸 Okay, she's talking about messaging architecture + software modernization ✉️ 💻 with 'Boiling The Frog: Implementing a Modern Message Based Architecture Without Anyone Noticing' at #KCDC2025

Someone knocked on my door and now my cat is on guard to protect me 🐈

#kcdc2025 has been an amazing conference. I’m feeling so honored to have gotten the chance to be here for it
