Did you know that the Carp Fair is celebrating its sesquicentennial this year? How many smiling faces, candy apples, tractor pulls, and giant pumpkins do you think there may have been during the past 150 years? I can’t even begin to figure it out. But I will say this, we couldn’t have chosen a nicer day to check out the Carp Fair. This was our day yesterday:

We are trying to decide if we want to go check it out this afternoon…looking at your photos is making me lean towards yes! Great weather again, too.
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.
