… or something like morning pages ?
(thanks everyone, for your comments on my post the other day … I’m going to try to go with the flow and not force it. You can’t force it, can you?)

I love getting fun mail

The lovely and talented SAJ sent me a Sludgie a.k.a an arty/fabric representation of her ex-gall bladder.
Hoo boy.
He’s only been here a short time and he’s already making himself RIGHT AT HOME. He’s an unbelievably bold little organ. Good thing you got rid of him SAJ! ;)
Check out the flickr set here.
One of four ATCs. Available for trade.

The Obligatory Blurb
Thank you for visiting! My name is Andrea and I live in the Westboro area of Ottawa with my husband Mark and our two daughters Emma (14) and Sarah (12). I've been blogging since 1999, which makes me either a total dinosaur or a veteran of the Canadian blog scene, I'm not sure which! The Fishbowl is my whiteboard, water cooler, and journal, all rolled into one. I am the Managing Editor of Capital Parent Newspaper but also make my living doing a bunch of other fun things. I'm passionate about healthy living, arts and culture, family travel, good food, and sharing the best of Ottawa for parents and kids. I also love vegetables, photography, gadgets, and great design.
