People are skating along the shore of the #OttawaRiver already!

(Yes, that's open water just beyond the skaters).

The #Carp Christmas market was mobbed today. They really need more outdoor booths.

Many people left because the lines to get into the two buildings were too long.

Thankfully nearby churches had craft/bake/thrift sales to save the day for us impatient ones.

Old lady church homemade Christmas cookies are the best -- a bargain at $10 a tin

Woodland mushroom toast on pesto with feta and a County Bounty strawberry basil pop at Foundry in #CarletonPlace -- even better than it looks. Highly recommend.

A couple of cute galleries nearby

Fun shopping and dining this afternoon in #CarletonPlace

Not quite as cute as #Almonte but pretty close.

For those of you in #Ottaw looking for live trees for Christmas, I saw some at Bloomfields in #Hintonburg.

Smaller but gorgeous.

(Double the cost of a cut tree at a cheaper lot but not much more than what you'd pay at an expensive lot for a top tier tree).

Not sure which way I'll go myself yet

More #owl along the #OttawaRiver. #BarredOwl #BirdSky

I really did try to enjoy the moment so I only have a few short videos (and admittedly, I'm not much of a videographer. I can't seem to hold still lol)

So I continued my journey in the woods and five minutes later, he found me again. So we stared at each other for another five minutes. Such a magical encounter.

Yesterday I spotted an owl in the woods near the #OttawaRiver. We started at each other for five minutes, and then he flew closer and settled in a tree near me. We watched each other for a few more minutes before a man and a dog disrupted our curiosities.

Great to see a big turnout for the School of Photographic Arts Ottawa (SPAO)’s open house tonight. Spotted a couple of creative images I loved.

And really happy to see a moving write up of the award in memory of my husband, Mebs Rehemtulla. Very touching.

Not sure I’ve ever seen a drive-thru convenience store before — spotted in Little Italy

My view today.

Nice to work outside of the home office today (common before the pandemic — less so now. Trying to change that a wee bit).

OK, this might look like a sad little harvest, but it is tenacious. There’s literal snow on the ground in #Ottawa.

I forgot to harvest these two little tiny, daikon radish and one beet (and mint).

Rumour has it they get sweeter if you leave them after the frost. I guess I will find out!
