I have to confess that I am incredibly overwhelmed by the number of photos I took on our summer holiday. There are oh, about 900 of them to choose from. I’ve decided to post a select few, and instead of writing 6000 word summaries of our trip (BOR-ing) I’m going to summarize in as few […]
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.
