This week's donation goes to the Snowsuit Fund, an Ottawa-based charity based in the Overbrook area. It distributes warm winter clothing for children and teens under the age of sixteen.

During the pandemic, outdoor activities are being strongly encouraged. Outdoor air is generally safer than indoor air and with indoor gyms closed and so many people spending so much time indoors with their electronic devices, vigorous or even gentle exercise may be getting short shrift.

Outdoor exercise in winter - which is already upon us in Ottawa, whatever the calendar says - is only enjoyable or even realistic if you are dressed for the weather.

But once you've got those endorphins working and boosting your spirits, you can still retreat indoors for a gourmet meal for two with spirits of another variety:

If $300 is a little rich for your blood, smaller donations are welcome too. Thanks to economies of scale, $50 is enough to equip one child with a new snowsuit.

And if you don't drink, you might still enjoy a cookie:
