Dandelion Moms Project Kindness :: August
Dandelion Moms Project Kindness: The idea to start the dandelion moms project kindness came about after watching some of Amy Krouse Rosenthal’s videos entitled the Beckoning of Lovely Project and seeing the great things that were being done during the Random Acts of Kindness week. I wanted to create a community of women and men who wanted to send out some seeds of kindness into the world by doing some easy acts of kindness. Each month we spotlight an organization or person who is helping to make the world a better place to see how we might be able to help out. Project Night Night: This month…

Take a Trip Back in Time with The Medieval Times Show
Last week I was contacted by the crew over at The Medieval Times to see if I would like to check out the show in Buena Park. I had not seen the show yet which is surprising since I have lived in Orange County most of my life (minus my college years and traveling). My seven year old was so excited to see real knights on horses fighting and jousting. A brand new show opened up this year and celebrates the California Castle’s 25th anniversary, The Medieval Times 30th anniversary, and its recent $2.5 renovation. We arrived just as the show was about to begin, but I would recommend to come at least an half hour…

“Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art… It has no survival value; rather is one of those things that give value to survival. “ – C. S. Lewis Friendships are so important to help you get through the rough times in life and enjoy the happy times.

Some of these friends I am no longer in touch with but I still look back fondly on these friendships. I was so happy to hear that there is a national…

What you need is a juicer, a machine that squeezes the juice out of fruits and vegetables. Juicers are religiously used by many health-conscious people across the globe, simply because juiced fruits and vegetables carry so many astounding health benefits. Ingesting juiced fruits and vegetables helps remove toxins from your body.

Culture :: The Titanic and Bodies Exhibition Tickets Giveaway
Next week, my daughter and I are going to tour the Premier Exhibitions, Titanic: The Experience and Bodies: The Exhibition in Buena Park where the former Movieland Wax Museum use to be. I have always been fascinated by the stories surrounding RMS Titanic and loved the movie when it came out years ago. At the moment, my daughter’s favorite book is Dr. Seuss’s Inside Your Outside which talks about how the body works so I think she will enjoy the Bodies Exhibition. I am told the two exhibitions are appropriate for ages seven on up. This would be a great activity to do with the kids while they are on summer break…
