gosh.. i love to pretend! all the time with my sweet little cutiepie son. and every so often in day to day living!

now, there's no pretending that it's not FREEZING out, here in beautiful Ottawa today. it's currently -32 C with the windchill! nonetheless... today i'm imagining that i'm suiting up for all the fun events that kick off this weekend with our city's fabulous & fun winterlude !! oh heavens -it's a marvelous time! canal skating, beavertail eating, icesculpting, great outdoor concerts, amazing icesliding and oh so much more! can't wait!

so here we are... let's pretend that a) i like skating (which i sadly do not, but still LOVE our city's rideau canal: the world's longest (and i'd say, loveliest!) skating rink!!!)
