Yelp Your Way to a Fun Start to the Day
Thursday, July 29th, 2010
When traveling, we often use Yelp to find a fun local coffee shop with great reviews to get a flavor of the local vibe.
It is fun to explore a town and not stick to the typical Starbucks for coffee.

We wouldn’t have found without the Yelp App on the Droid.
This got me thinking, why not use Yelp at home to discover fun new places closer to home? (more…)

A New Park Opening in San Jose!
Tuesday, May 11th, 2010
It’s been a little over four years since the passing of San José resident and Cambrian Park “go-getter” Carolyn Norris, but her legacy continues to live on with the grand opening of the Carolyn Norris Park, dedicated in her honor.
Join the celebration at the parks official grand opening on Friday, May 14, 2010 at 4:30 p.m. Attendees will take part in a ceremony celebrating Carolyn’s life and the completion of a wonderful park, along with light refreshments, free face painting and balloon animals.

Friday, May 7th, 2010
Sunday is Mother’s Day! It is a great time to do something special to celebrate the mom in your life.
At a meeting yesterday, someone shared with me that they were going to make their wife a delicious breakfast with grilled asparagus, which got me thinking about how to celebrate mom with a fresh, delicious breakfast from the Farmer’s Market.
I’ve been going weekly to the Farmer’s Market at the College of San Mateo. Some of the fresh, local foods that I’ve been seeing include asparagus, strawberries, oranges, lemons, spinach, eggs, plus jams and much more. Here are a few recipe ideas to tap into the local ingredients available at the Farmer’s Markets near you: (more…)
