In the name of journalism, the girls and I (and hopefully, Mark) are going to the giant buffet at Emerald Plaza on Merivale Rd. The girls have never been to a buffet. In fact, I’m not even sure if they’re aware of the concept. I am approaching this experience as a sociological study. If you […]

Starve a fever? Feed a fever? I have no clue, but I think food for sick kiddies should be healthy and simple, with some sweetness so they can get some energy out of the sugar. That is, if they even feel like eating. That’s why we had pancakes for lunch yesterday, and again for breakfast today. […]
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.
