Christmas Craft Shows (ok, the kids probably won’t enjoy this….probably not too many husbands either….not that there is anything wrong with it if you do though…) You could always get a babysitter and head out to the wine and food show!
The Ottawa wine and food show is this weekend! It can get to be quite busy, but it is a great place to go…. especially if you like good wine and good food !!!! Mmmmm Tickets are $15 and is open to Ages 19 & up only. For ticket information, go to the Ticketmaster website (http://www.ticketmaster.ca/).
If you want to get started on your Christmas shopping (the pumpkins are still warm from last night!), you might want to check out the Christmas Craft fairs in the area this weekend and coming up.
