Sorry, folks. I’m not overly fond of captchas, but I had to do something to stop the flow of comment spam. I’ve installed a small captcha widget called reCAPTCHA that asks you to type two words before you comment. The upside is that by using this one, you’re helping to confirm words that have been scanned to digitize books. You can read more about it here.

I hope this is just a temporary measure. Thanks for your patience, and please do send me an e-mail at danicanada (a) gmail (dot) com if you have any trouble with it!

As the temperature moderates [...]...
4. MotherTalk book review: Bob Books for Beginning Readers I have a confession to make. I didn’t read a single book in the boxed set I’m supposed to be reviewing today for my stop on MotherTalk’s Bob Books blog tour. In fact, I had them read to me – by Tristan, my five year old son. (pause for gasps of delight [...]...
5. In need of a good home? I know of a home in search of a dog. (No, not mine, but if you’ve been reading recently, you’ll know who.) If you might happen to know of anyone in the Ottawa area who knows of a big, friendly, mature dog in need of a good home, I’d love to hear from [...]...
