Moment(s) of Bliss #014

Posted by andrea tomkins in: Moments of bliss

I won the lottery. I didn’t pick numbers or place any bets, yet I have riches beyond measure. And for that, I am very very grateful.

Wishing you all a wonderful New Year, one that’s full of fire and joy and happiness.

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.

If you'd like to contact me, please use this form. If you're so inclined, you can read more about me here.

My latest post over at the MediaSmarts blog came about because I found myself having THE TALK with the girls recently. It's not THE talk you're thinking about. No, the birds and bees were covered years ago. This is the "don't upload anything stupid" to the Internet talk. Sigh. As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts!

I'm kicking around some ideas for inexpensive DIY garden paths over at the UsedEverywhere blog this week. And as usual, I'm torn.
