Last weekend my daughter and I went out of town. Okay, so it was only to Selma, but that still counts as going out of town, right? ;) My daughter has a love for theater. She's been a part of many plays through school, as well as through CMT. We've also been to a handful of musicals at Fresno City College and the Saroyan Theatre. There is something so magical about the theater. When you watch a … [Read more...]
Pet Medical Center and Spa
Last week I wrote about our family adopting two new doggies. After having to wait an extra week, this last Saturday we picked up our newest addition, Miss Claire! (As in eclair, which goes perfectly with Sugar.) When we adopted both dogs, I was told that I could take them to the veterinarian for a free check up. Initially I wasn't going to, but after I took Sugar to the … [Read more...]
Adopt Local: Animal Compassion Team
Animal Compassion Team of California There are two kinds of people in this world. Cat people and dog people. Sometimes someone fits into both categories, but usually, people pick a side. I am team cat. Growing up we had some dogs here and there, but never really a true family pet. Most of our dogs were outside dogs, and I don't remember ever having a real connection to any of them. Then, my … [Read more...]
Eat Local: Edo Ya Tokyo Cuisine
About 20 years ago a family member told me about teppanyaki, where a chef will cook food in front of you. I didn't quite understand the concept, as I had never experienced it. I remember thinking that it wasn't really such a big deal. I mean, if I wanted to watch someone cook, I could sit and watch my grandma make dinner. So, that didn't really inspire me to try the restaurant he was … [Read more...]
Eat local: Starving Artists Bistro
Last week I had the opportunity to visit a new (to me) restaurant called Starving Artists Bistro. They recently celebrated their 3rd year of being open, and I'm surprised that I had never been there until last week. I had heard of Starving Artists Bistro for a while, but I hadn't made the trip to that part of town, as it's so far away from where I live. Starving Artists Bistro is located at … [Read more...]
Shop Local: Fresno Deli
It should come as no surprise to any of you that I love Mediterranean food. I've written a post about the Fresno Greek Fest (which I attend every year), I've been to many Mediterranean restaurants around town, and all my friends know that I just love feta cheese. Having said that, it's no wonder that I want to let you know about a local grocery store called Fresno Deli-International Grocery & … [Read more...]
5 Grizzlies Game Fun For Kids
One of the best features about living in Fresno is the fact that we have a minor league baseball team-the Fresno Grizzlies. I've been going to the Grizzlies games for years, and even though we may not always win, the games have always been fun. Watching a Grizzlies game is great fun for families, single people, those on a date, couples, teens...Pretty much for anyone who likes to watch baseball. … [Read more...]
Eat Local: BJ’s Kountry Kitchen
BJ's Kountry Kitchen Hello FresYes readers! I'm not sure if any of you noticed, but I've been missing for a few weeks. I debated sharing this with you all, but since I've been writing for FresYes for almost 2 years (or somewhere around there), I figured I could get personal. Last month my grandfather passed away. He was more than just a grandfather to me-he was like my father. He raised me, … [Read more...]
