A nagging, annoying grousy feeeeling and it hasn’t gone away, no matter how much coffee or chocolate or hot buttered toast I’ve eaten thus far. “WHAT, WHAT IS IT?” I asked myself. “WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME YOU TOAST-CRAVING BODY?” “Well, I’m feeling yicky today.” “Yicky?

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.
