I recently had lunch - by myself - at a vegetarian restaurant my daughter also enjoys. We used to come here once or twice a month when she lived nearby.
I've decided to continue coming on my own - because I enjoy the food. (Also because the DASH diet for hypertension recommends eating vegetarian.)
Sitting here, looking out the window - it suddenly occurred to me that this is a very significant place in our family's history.
The university across the street is the reason Terry and I moved to Ottawa in the first place. Had Terry not come here to study, we would no doubt have raised our family in another part of Canada, lived in a different neighborhood, and had different friends. So much would be different! But the university brought us here - and here we stayed!
