Our Favorite Festival Food!

We had the pleasure of going to one of the BEST festivals in Pittsburgh!  The Children's Festival held this year in Oakland.  It was huge and fun and had something for everyone!  As we were working and surveying all our options we started a lively discussion as to what is the BEST Festival FOOD!  Salty?  Sweet?  Both?  I'm getting hungry just thinking about all the choices!

If you were down in the fun with us and had a great time, or even not so great....let them know here!  Follow this link and let your voice be heard.  We just can't say enough about it!  We can't wait until next year when they move this shindig DOWNTOWN!

CAMP MOM

Do It Yourself Summer Camp Ideas

Perhaps one day a week throughout the summer works for you and your group or perhaps you want to dedicate ONE FULL WEEK to neighborhood summer camp.  Any way you slice it, use these ideas below to make it super ...

1. SIT SMART. Sit near an exit for a fast getaway , sit outside for a little more “freedom” !

Kiss My Acronym

Boycotting Labels For Moms

I was recently in a room full of women when the initial introductions and small chat began. Inevitably I was asked by someone, "What do you do?"

I get the nervous tummy anytime someone even begins the topic because it is then that I need to instantaneously decide if my soap box will put a damper on the evening. Sometimes the soap box is cumbersome. Big and bulky and certainly not worthy of a situation. Other times it fits well.

The truth is that no matter how I answered that ...


Reflections on my Summer Vacation

How YOU can be poolside and not the sitter.

Ahhhh, Summer is here!  The days are warmer and longer, the sun is brighter, and the evening breezes are ripe with the smell of flowers blooming.  It’s a wonderful time of year.  This is my favorite time of year not only because it’s warmer but also because it allows me to truly appreciate being a Home Business Entrepreneur!

Take Me Out to the Ball Game!

Summer is the best!  The sun...the smell of grass...and, of course, baseball.  It’s America’s pastime, and the Miracle League makes it everyone’s sport. 

            The Miracle League welcomes all disabled children and adults in Southwestern Pennsylvania to participate.  Sadly, so many people with special needs have been excluded from their local Little League programs.  Why can’t they play?  Well, the regular field just doesn’t work.  So, the Miracle League built one.
