- The Great Beaver County Donut Throwdown My last few articles have been on the healthy side (Fellowship Foods, Sproutz…) so I figure we could all use a little palate cleanser with a donut throwdown! The mission that I have chosen to accept is to find Beaver County’s best donut. I went into this mission comparing only three donut shops, because those […]
- The Top Five Things I Hate to Love About Winter Winter has finally made its unwelcomed appearance and based on what I saw this morning on the weather, it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. That leaves me in a weird place. I hate it so much, so so much, that I could go one of three places – Either I become a miserable person that is constantly complaining…. Or totally quiet… OR I suck it up and try to make the best out of this frozen Hell.
- Wagner’s Home Improvement in New Brighton When you are doing the dreaded home remodeling, where do you go? Do you pick the big box store by the mall or that other one in Chippewa?? What if I told you there was a third option – a family owned and operated business – right on the main street of New Brighton??
- Sweetwater Center for the Arts Summer Camps at Beaver Station Good news and bad news, folks! Good news: School is just about out! No more packing lunches and waking up sluggish, miserable kids for school, no more waiting at the bus stop or driving the kids to school (which, might I add, is significantly more confusing than the drop off scene in Mr. Mom). Sunny […]
- Chocolate Heaven: Behind the Scenes at Rosalind Candy Castle Sometimes in life, there are magical things that happen. Births of kids, marriages, pets brought into your life... I had one of these magical things happen this past week when I got the YBC Golden Ticket to go behind the scenes at Rosalind Candy Castle in New Brighton. Even now a few days later, I am still smiling like a butcher’s dog! It was a great experience.

- Hallowed Grounds: Where Beaver County Gets “The Good Stuff” I want to talk about coffee. Delicious, caffeinated beverage that wakes you up and keeps you pleasant throughout the day. The Nectar of the Gods. The reason millions of people don’t fall asleep at their desk after lunch. But I don’t want to talk about just any old coffee. No NO. What I want to talk about is the good stuff… Hallowed Grounds.

- What Do You Think About Waffles Inc. in Beaver Serving Beer? There was a pretty huge council meeting a few nights ago in Beaver. This one was about the recent pairing of Waffles Inc. with Beaver Brewing Co., and the ability to have beer served in the dry town of Beaver. The Mister and I decided, along with a few friends, to go check it out to see exactly what all the hubbub was about. And boy, was there some hubbub!

What I am going to comment on are the details. The details on the YBC team and what makes for a dinner out that turns out just right.

Boom, Hannah!! Get. It. Girl!
