A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

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.)  

Working Mom Tip: Phipps Conservatory Free Admission


The Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens is one of Pittsburgh's great treasures. It contains the most beautiful plants and flowers and is one of the most peaceful places in Pittsburgh. It also have a beautiful chandelier in the lobby that was designed by Dale Chihuly. Every time I visit the Phipps I fall in love with it!

Free Fun in Pittsburgh!


If you're looking for a retreat from the world on Monday, visit the Phipps because admission will be FREE!

For working moms, if you have Paid Time Off, you could take your kids to the Phipps on Monday. However, even if you don't, consider visiting the Phipps for lunch with your girlfriends. They have a great cafe that specializes in healthy eating options. So, you could have a healthy meal and enjoy one of the region's resources.
