Cleveland.  The rust belt.

But do you know what’s happening in the rest belt?  We are shaking off the rust and rising up.  1 NBA Championship, a World Series run and business is returning to the Main Streets of Northeast Ohio.  Local businesses are giving the big box stores a run for their money.  Communities are rising up.  While downtown Cleveland is small in comparison to other big cities, there is an influx of downtown living and what was once a 9-5 city is now becoming a full community where people, live, work and play.

Northeast Ohio is made up of many communities, each with their own charm.

My community is Cuyahoga Falls, which was born as one of the many communities of the Akron tire industry and Cleveland steel industry in the early to middle 20th century.

The houses in Cuyahoga Falls vary between homes that are 100 years old to newly built.  But it all blends beautifully.

Cuyahoga Falls, like Cleveland, is experiencing a rebirth.  Main street in now in the process of being restored.  There is a new shopping district and movie theater.  All streets are in the process of being repaved.  There are community parks abound and numberous community events throughtout the year, like Food Truck Rally’s, Concerts, Octoberfests, Irishfests, Farmer’s Markets and more.   It’s what helps make this community a community.

When we first bought our house we planned to be here for 5 years then move to the “next bigger house”.  Instead I love the community that I am raising my kids in so much, we have been here for 12 and don’t plan to go anywhere anytime soon.  We can walk to the parks, restaurants, even the grocery store.  We are only 20 minutes from the Cuyahoga Valley National Park and within 15 minutes of several Metroparks.

One of my favorite places to hang out in the Burntwood Tavern which is set right along the Cuyahoga River and has some of the best Moscow Mules you have ever had, (they also have a few other locations in Northeast Ohio.)  One lucky reader will get a $25 gift certificate to the Burntwood Taven! Click the Rafflecopter box below and tell me your favorite place to eat in Northeast Ohio in the comments below to enter.  1 winner will be chosen at random at the close of the contest.

Product Review: Milkies Milk Saver

November 9, 2012 by val Leave a Comment

Nursing a little one can be quite a challenge..some of us produce too little of milk and need to preserve every drop, others find themselves engorged and leaking like a broke faucet.

Or you may be somewhere right in the middle, but hate to pump! (Please note – this will not produce the same effect as pumping, but it will help you secure extra milk when you may not be able to pump.)

No matter what your situation may be, it can be helped by using the Milkies Milk Saver. It fits fairly discretely under your shirt and helps you reserve precious drops of milk while you are nursing (or help with overflow while baby may not be nursing regularly or you are just you have the “gift” of lactation).

Click here to check out the Milkies site and learn more about how this innovative product works!

*I was given a sample product to review in an honest post and was not monitarily compensated for completing this review post
