Interesting side effect of paying attention to Edmonton blogs: The more you look, the more you find. Same thing happens to when I start cleaning up messes in my house. This is way more fun. A sampling:
Trent Wilkie has launched a delightful new blog called The Undad, chronicling his paternity leave. It’s already on my must-read list. (Photo of Trent and his baby boy, used with permission.)
What else can I recommend?

- The ladies at 204 Park have put together a lovely Edmonton-centric holiday gift guide.
