With the news this week that the Rideau Canal Skateway has closed for the season and warmer temperatures in the forecast, it feels like we’re slowly but surely making our way towards spring. This weekend we’ve got an exciting mix of St. Patrick’s Day festivities and March break activities.
It has been another hot week here in the 613, but we’ve made it through and this weekend promises blue skies, sunshine, and some milder weather for us to enjoy. There is also plenty going on this weekend in our great town, so get out there and have some fun! It is the summer, after all!
‘Tis the season for warm mittens, holiday shopping, and delicious treats. One of our favourite ways to treat ourselves, and an excuse to get out of the house and meet up with friends and family, is a hot holiday beverage. We looked all over town for the best decadent holiday drinks for you to try out this season, and here are some of our favourites.
Whether you are looking for coffee, tea, or something else entirely, these are some of our favourite fall finds across town.
Another beautiful weekend in Ottawa, and another packed roundup! The city is teeming with theatre, sports, and music this weekend, so take your pick and get exploring! The summer heat just keeps coming, so stay hydrated, and stay cool!
When a longstanding regular at Centretown coffeehouse Arlington 5 pitched an idea to founder/owner Jessie Duffy, a unique collaboration with the School of Industrial Design at Carleton University followed. Those conversations led to Urban Imaginaries, a bold new project whose purpose “is to see people engage in everyday spaces in ways that are beyond transactional, and to open up a conversation around imagining multiple possibilities for the spaces we inhabit.”
It’s the end of December when everything goes quiet, and many of us enjoy delicious seasonal treats. But if you’re in the mood to read about food, rather than just consuming it, we’ve compiled our top 5 most popular Foodie Friday posts of 2021 to whet your appetite and help you make plans for 2022. So grab a snack and see what made Apt613 readers the hungriest this year.
