Kid Friendly City - Vancouver

Picture_298

I recently visited Vancouver, BC - what a kid friendly city?
Especially, Granville Island. The Kids Market features a fantastic
assortment of kid related stores housed in one building. You are bound
to get lost exploring all the little nooks and crannies housing an
eclectic assortment of toys and gadgets. As you exit the building and
follow a path towards a public water park and play area. If the
weather participates, bring swimmies because your kids will be eager
to frolic in the water. Our family will be back Vancouver.

Gisele Bundchen Goes to Bat For Breast feeding

Picture_252

In the September issue of British Harper's Bazaar, Brazilian
supermodel and new mom, Gisele Bundchen says "I think there should be
a worldwide law, in my opinion" encouraging breast feeding. Her
comments for pro breast feeding are bound to stir up controversy. The
funny thing is who has made Gisele an expert. Does her opinion really
matter?

Shirley Temple - What is it?

Picture_232

The very first mocktail, as far as we know, was the Shirley Temple,
named after Shirley Temple. According to legend, a bartender made it
up to serve to the innocent Miss Temple during the raging Hollywood
parties of the 1930s. This Shirley Temple is made of club soda (or
lemon-lime soda,) ice, grenadine, and a maraschino cherry on top.
