A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

on
As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow. (As an Amazon associate, I am compensated for qualifying purchases.)

Friday Tip: Another Free Event in Pittsburgh (Three Rivers Arts Festival)

on


The Three Rivers Arts Festival has been going on for some time and this is the last weekend. According to a sign I saw, it's the largest free festival of its kind in the nation. Gotta love it when Pittsburgh comes in first for something other than football and eating more French Fries on salads than anyone else!

I usually enjoy the festival, but I have been forgetting to attend this year. This evening though, the toddler and I attended the festival as part of our nightly walk. Indeed, downtown was hopping tonight. There was the festival, the Pittsburgh Pirates were playing, and there were musicians playing on the sidewalk. We loved all of the excitement, especially the toddler who was smiling and dancing in her stroller. 

We had dinner at the festival too, an egg roll and chicken on a stick.  Yes, even though I have been committed to giving my toddler fresh, organic, food today we ate street meat. It was oh so good.  Don't judge me!

Besides, it's been reported that the health inspectors checked the food at the festival and we said grace so I am sure that we'll be fine!
