Weekend reading: March 29 edition

Posted by andrea tomkins in: Weekend reading

I’ve decided that I’m going to start sharing short lists of articles that I’ve enjoyed over the past week. I’ll post a new list every Saturday morning, just in time for weekend reading over coffee. Warning! It’s going to be a mixed bag (what can I say, I have diverse interests!) but who knows, maybe you’ll find something interesting in there too.

Thanks so much for sharing! Those were great articles. Saturday morning reads for you = Monday morning procrastination for me. :)

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.
