A moment I had forgotten about

Posted by andrea tomkins in: Misc. life

It’s summer, and summer = reruns here at the Fishbowl. But don’t click the Back button just yet. I’m reposting some of my favourite posts from the past.

This post is not really about yogurt

I was thinking of that just before bed last night. Funny that.
Also, how I must remember to hug the kids more-seems there is always time for other things-but aren’t they what are most important. While time ticks so slowly, it also is gone in the blink of an eye….
Thanks for enforcing that : )

The Obligatory Blurb

My name is Andrea and I live in the Westboro area of Ottawa with my husband Mark and our dog Piper who is kind of a big deal on Instagram. We also have two human offspring: Emma (24) and Sarah (22). During the day I work as a writer at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre. 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.
