Where Edmonton Magazine November/December 2016 | Page 9
EDITOR'S NOTE
CELEBRATE THE SEASON!
November and December are wonderful months to be in Edmonton. Our
vibrant theatre season is in full swing, the streets are filled with holiday
shoppers, and local restaurants have mouth-watering specialty dishes
created with ingredients from nearby farms. Our feature Where You’ll Find
the Locals (pg 20) will help you experience some of these hot spots, while
Cozy Sipping (pg 21) will give you some ideas of how to escape our chilly
weather!
If you are in the mood to shop, check out Gifts Made for Wish Lists (pg 16)
to find the perfect hostess gift, or a present for that special someone. Our
resident bibliophile, Matthew Stepanic, has also put together a fantastic list
of 7 Gift-Worthy Reads (pg 37) that are all written by local authors!
You won’t want to miss the seasonal events like Zoominescence — a
dazzling light installation at the Edmonton Valley Zoo — listed in Holiday
Traditions (pg 23), and I bet you don’t know all of the facts that Canadian
Cowboy Country Magazine Editor Terri Mason dug up in CFR 43: By The
Numbers (pg 22)!
Whether you are looking to enjoy a brand new Cirque du Soleil show (pg
11), shop handmade gifts (pg 36), or get your photo with a bronzed Wayne
Gretzky (pg 62), you will find it — and much more — within these pages!
Welcome to Edmonton!
