How is it already July? Before summer completely flies by, be sure to get out and enjoy one of just a few of the great things this region has to offer! All weekend ‘Tis the season for yoga in the park. Check out classes at various parks across the city on Saturday at Tavern at […]
Whenever someone tells you Ottawa is a boring government town, tell them I said they clearly never had to put together a Weekend Roundup. I am constantly baffled by the amount of things going on across the capital – and people’s ability to somehow miss them! Tell your friends – send them to Apartment 613. […]
The Almonte Outpost opened on Friday December 3 and brings some of our favourite Almonte treats to the heart of the ByWard Market.
If you’re anything like me, there are always a bunch of tiny bits and bobs that would be perfect to gift, but not worth the effort of wrapping up and putting under the tree. Conveniently, for those items, we have stockings. It’s always a joy to watch someone pull a bunch of tiny surprises from a giant sock.

Marquee signs are making a comeback, and you don’t need to travel back in time to get your own. If you drive half an hour west of the city, you will reach Gas Light Electric, run by Scott Adamson. His work can be found all over town. The “C-O-F-F-E-E” sign at Equator Coffee, which I mentioned in […]

Equator Coffee is located right in the heart of Westboro, just slightly off the beaten path on Churchill. Once you step inside, be prepared to […]
