I love radio visits! They are so much fun. I love visiting with music lovers, talking about music, and my favorite part is getting to play my newest songs for radio personalities and listeners! Here a few photos from my stop in Ottawa at New Country 94.3.
If you know me, you know my love of baked goods is nearing infatuation. I love a good cupcake, cake, muffin, and a nice crunchy bread! So when in Montreal it felt essential to sample a couple croissants and baked treats! I have to say, I was not disappointed! Now I don’t think I’ll be able to eat another croissant outside of France and Montreal that could possibly be as good! (Although I welcome the challenge!) I did a little research while lying in bed on the morning of our first and only day in Montreal and discovered some cult favorites were Boulangerie Mr Pinchot, Boulangerie Les Co’Pains D’abord, and Boulangerie Guillaume! We tried a few treats and I think the almond croissant was my absolute favorite! Do you have a favorite baked treat?

Having never been to Ottawa prior to this radio trip I had no idea how beautiful the government buildings were, but needless to say I found the marriage between the historic aspect and the modern importance of these buildings to be incredible. While walking around I was reminded that Canada is a bilingual country. Of course I knew this, but typically the cities I’m most familiar with speak primarily English. It was so exciting to hear people speaking both French and English on the streets of Ottawa. Have you been anywhere and had a similar experience?
