Somehow it seems fitting that seven years ago today I was labouring away with Emma, my firstborn. Little did I know that the epidural would make my lower half feel like a slab of roast beef and all my huffing and puffing would result in a brand new 10 lb 3 oz little girl. I […]
The Doodlebops are playing in the background and it’s official, my concentration is destroyed. Oh, how I loathe them. The reason I’m giving in this morning is because Sarah has a mashed-up face.

I am sitting here drinking hot coffee in a rather congratulatory fashion. Why? Because I figured out how to keep it hot. We make coffee in the morning in a French press.

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.
