Sleep! I didn’t sleep well last night and have so much to get done today that there is no time for a nap.

My cottage porch, a good book, blue skies and clear water… and a beer.

Sadly, this craving will go unfulfilled this summer. I’m so bummed about it

…. pickles! (And no, I’m not preggers.) I was at the grocery store today when I suddenly realized that I really wanted pickles, so I bought a jar of big dills and ate one with dinner. Yum.

Blueberry Peach Cobbler. I love it, but the kids won’t eat it, so I wind up eating a whole try myself. I need to find a nice potluck to go to, so I have an excuse for making it.

What kind of crazy kids do not like cobbler, I ask?

The Obligatory Blurb

My name is Andrea and I live in Ottawa with my husband Mark and our dog Sunny who is kind of a big deal on Instagram. During the day I work as a freelance writer. I am a longtime Ottawa blogger and I've occupied this little corner of the WWW since 1999. The Fishbowl is my whiteboard, water cooler, and journal, all rolled into one. I'm passionate about healthy living, arts and culture, travel, great gear, good food, and sharing the best of Ottawa. I also love vegetables, photography, gadgets, and great design.

If you're so inclined, you can read more about me here.

I've deactivated the commenting function as well as my contact form so if you want to get in touch, please drop me a line at quietfish@gmail.com. Thank you!
