Baddest Panthers Tailgating Mobiles
Carolina Panthers
Buy Panthers Tickets
Full Schedule
Upcoming Games
It's week seven in the NFL, and in the Carolinas that means that some of the biggest, baddest Panthers tailgaiting vehicles are being polished and shined in anticipation of game day! Here are just a few of the really unique mobile tailgating opportunities available in the Queen City:
Party Pedalers
Describing itself as an eco-friendly, pedal-powered, pub-crawling trolley, this crazy contraption has seating room for up to 14 people. It's like a moving bar scene, with all 14 participants imbibing in their favorite adult beverage while pedaling away on their individual bicycle pedals. There is even a bartender to mix cocktails. Available for rental, this is an awesome addition to the Charlotte Panthers tailgater society and provides plenty of laughter and camaraderie as people slowly cruise and party up and down the streets around Bank of America Stadium.
The Panther Fanz Party Prowler
This famous black bus, repurposed from an old school bus, is an award-winning Panthers pride tailgating vehicle that has been known to travel across the country to various stadiums and contests. On the outside of this party mobile there is a comfortable patio, custom-made blue chairs and a huge electronic awning that reaches out over 15 feet across the blacktop. Inside, there are booths, a bathroom, heat/AC and a kitchen specifically designed for tailgating snacks and drinks. The Party Prowler is a privately owned vehicle and the owners welcome all to come and visit, but not to expect a tour. Panther Fanz can always be found in their own personalized lot off of 601 South Cedar Street across the walkway from the Panthers practice field, and usually has a big crowd as well as 20 or so other cars and grills caravanned around. Don't miss the entertainment stage!
Charlotte Party Bus
There are a number of different party buses with various amenities to choose from at the Charlotte Party Bus company. Tailgaters can choose from smaller vehicles that accommodate as few as 14 people or one of the big luxurious mobiles that hold up to 36 people. The larger vehicles come complete with built-in bars, a dance floor, disco lights, plasma TVs and great sound systems, providing an exceptional tailgating experience. The only thing missing is the food, but any good tailgater already knows how to obtain a fabulous picnic. With reasonable rates and a professional driver, it allows people to let go and just have a great pre-game party.
Boxman Studios Pop-Up Party
So this is not exactly a vehicle, but still really cool. Based out of Charlotte, the innovative Boxman Studios company successfully created an environmentally green food truck without wheels – and it has been a big hit at tailgating events ever since. Solar panels generate the electricity needed to power refrigerators, televisions and disco lights, and the units can be combined to create dance floors or more than one story. Budweiser and vitaminwater have been using the Pop-Up Party for events all over the Carolinas, including recent Panthers home games.

Catch 22 Lyrics - Consequence
Everything in torn scopin would have catched 22
Meanin you could catch a body 8 to 22
Catch a break, catch a body
But don't be caught slippin in a hotel lobby
Or you'll never play catch with your kids
That fool caught hell for what he did
But me I'm tryina catch, a capture
A lightskin delta, used to date a kapp
But now when the rappers would catch phrases
So you might catch her coming out the days in
Way before her friend catch the bouquet when
Her famous pressure made a young boy cave in
See once you caught that bread like catch it in the ride
It won't be long before they catch him in the live
So like mister miyagi then you catching flies
Everything is based off, how you catch a prive
So me I'm a dope catcher, I pull bitches through when they call dexter
Cause I'm too busy bout to catch a flight
Or catch the flights, them naked drop em in [?]
A block and for 23rd, or a block up for 21st
And after 2 more great features
I be getting plenty of verse
So drop a 22 hunned on some sneakers don't hurt
I'm on my next money move
Cause I be catching racks since 22
Yeah I be catching the checks since the 22
I almost got caught with a 22
And finally would have had deserved 22
Until I paid my lawyer bout 22
And he a [?] since 22
So they have been cool about 22, years
So I told my peers, deuce, deuce
Cause there was nothing to proove
And that's a good example on how your money should move
And you can teach these steps to your crew
But even that come with a catch 22.

Anderson County High School students started out with the simple goal of providing more canned goods for the food pantry this year during their annual Stuff the Bus fundraiser.
Last year, students raised approximately $4,000 worth of canned goods and non-perishable food items. This year, the students shattered their record, collecting an estimated $10,000 to $12,000 worth of canned goods.

last week you got an insight into our amazing trip to vancouver with the kit & ace team, so this week i want to share my take on styling the new favourite basics (you just gotta feel them). the fabrics are pre-shrunk and fully washable to add functionality to our already hectic lives, and did i mention how they feel like butter. funny enough, the whole outfit is from our trip to the coast. so easy to get lost in shopping especially when fall stock is hitting the shelves. although a funny time to transition into layers. not sure if i'm ready yet. we still have a few good weeks ahead and we are gearing up for our trip to new york, which is coming up soon. we might already be thinking of making it a yearly thing. a huge amount of changes coming this week, including our new studio. beyond excited to have a space to shoot outfits in the winter, more even, about having an all white and concrete loft to decorate. stay tuned for pics. xoxo

I don't have an iPhone but I thought this was so awesome, I wanted to pass it along to any of you who may, especially if you have kids learning to read. Check out these Learn-to-Read Apps for Kids; I would so have loved to have had this when my kids were little!

I'm thinking an HTC if I get a smartphone. Actually, my husband's recent MP3 player purchase is almost like one, even uses VOIP for phone calls if you want! I'd definitely take the current model if he wants to get the next one when it's released. I don't make many phone calls on my (emergency) cell, anyway!
|Wed, 09-14-2011 - 3:14pm
Awesome! Let me know how he likes them; I'm always looking for things like this for my grandkids. My DIL did have an iPhone for a while, but she decided to go with a basic cell to economize a while back.
|Tue, 09-13-2011 - 11:52pm
I decided to dig around a bit and found that I can borrow the Bob Books that one of the apps is based on. I'm going to try the alphabet and pre-reading skills sets with Tim because I think he's at the right age.
(And maybe by the time the kids are both in school, we'll have a smartphone in the house. LOL)

The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project has urged Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State to reverse the increased tuition fees for the students of Lagos State University, describing the increase unfair, unjust, discriminatory and retrogressive.
In a press release by SERAP's Executive Director, Adetokunbo Mumuni, it urged the governor to ensure and guarantee that no LASU students will be denied access to education because they cannot pay the increased fees.
It reads, "By reversing the tuition fees, your government will be demonstrating its sacred duty to promote equality in the society, and showing respect for international law requiring states to move towards free higher education when setting fees policy.
"We believe that next in importance to freedom and justice is access to quality education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be maintained.
"The increased tuition fees have constituted a disincentive to poorer students attending LASU, because we continue to receive reports of decreasing level of enrolment to the school due primarily to the increased fees.
"We believe that the increased tuition fees discriminate against poorer students. As most students wishing to attend LASU cannot do so on the grounds of their economic and social conditions, their right of access to education is clearly being severely curtailed, if not extinguished.
"A hike in fees cannot be in the best interests of the child, which is a fundamental principle entrenched in international law, in particular, the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which Nigeria has ratified.
"The International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights to which Nigeria is a state party provides that, higher education shall be made equally accessible to all on the basis of capacity, by every appropriate means, and in particular by the progressive introduction of free education.
"Education aims to provide the child with life skills, strengthen the child's capacity to enjoy the full range of human rights and promote a culture which is infused by appropriate human rights values.
"Non-discrimination and economic accessibility mean that education must be accessible to all, especially the most disadvantaged students. Progressive introduction of free education means that while States must prioritize the provision of free primary education, they also have an obligation to take concrete steps towards achieving free secondary and higher education."

The Nebraska basketball program's second-annual Legends Weekend will take place this weekend (Feb. 28-March 1), as the Huskers will take on Northwestern at Pinnacle Bank Arena. Saturday's game, which is a 4 p.m. start on ESPNU is already sold out.
The event was created by Coach Tim Miles with the Husker Athletic Department and the N-Club to welcome back former players and staff and recognize them for their contributions to the Nebraska basketball program, as well as have the current Husker team connect with former players and learn more about the history of Nebraska basketball.
As of Monday morning, nearly 50 former players, coaches and staff are returning to Lincoln for the weekend's events, which includes a private reception on Friday night, a chance to tour Nebraska's basketball facilities and watch Saturday's walk-through before the Huskers take on
Northwestern. In addition, the former players will be introduced and recognized during Saturday's halftime ceremony.
Husker students will also have a chance to be a part of the special day, as the first 700 students in attendance in the Red Zone will receive a custom-made shirt to celebrate Legends Weekend.

Ride to Work Day
13 June 2012 11:32
Come-on Bike manufactuers - I ride a VFR800, or custom bandit.
But going to work each day even with dartford tolls and parking is still cheaper on fuel mileage & running costs by CAR
--- my car get 65+ to a gallon (VW Up!) --- my bike 42mpg,
--- car service £200 at 12000 miles, bike £250 every 4000 miles,
--- tyres 16k plus on car - set of 4 £200, Motorbike £250 a pair every 6k miles,,,
--- and don't get started on disc pads, chain oil, chain maintenance
--- and all the safety gear you gotta wear these days in case some knob in a tin can half a sleep doesn't spot you
I have stopped using my bike becuase of the costs and unless motorbike manufacturers wake up to bloody reality --- they are probably going to loose another biker - me --- not cause I want to give it up (I would rather loose a bullock) --- but because its becoming financially unjustifiable.

Every day
But not to save money purely to save time.
If I wanted to save money I would drive a modern car as they seem so much better on fuel than virtually all motorcycles at the moment.
Why the motorcycle industry doesn't pull its finger out I don't know, there have been hybrid bikes around for at least 10 years now even a diesel one someone made in the USA, but to date you can't buy a hybrid motorcycle from any of the main manufacturers and the fuel consumption of bikes today is pretty dismal, especially when you have a car that can carry 5 people and weighs a hell of a lot still able to produce 70 to the gallon, and with porsch bringing out their new sports car able to do over 90 to the gallon, it definately has nothing to do with fuel consumption as to why anyone should ride a motorcycle.

Every day bar snow.
Snow is the only time I don't ride, just doesn't make sense.
Ride to work is a nice initiative. But if people who already own bikes aren't riding into work every day, then I doubt it will change.. Right until it becomes an economic necessity.

Winter Riding
Winter is a problem here. While I have ridden a small dual-sport (Yamaha TW200) in the snow without studs, this was on back roads without much traffic or road salt. When the cagers are sliding around like idiots, being on a moto is a bad thing. And all the salt they put down on the roads corrodes everything.

A bluegrass instrument which is given as an apology in the American south.

an incredibly pimped out instrument that picks up mad bitches. requires skill to be played and cannot be improved by computers in order to make it sound listenable (like every other type of music).
i was playing my banjo last night and this girl wanted to throw me some brain. so i let her.

Teaching With LEGO
How many of you have lived through this scenario…you are walking through your living room, looking straight ahead like a good person should, and OUCH!!!! You step right on a Lego. I recently saw a quote on Pinterest that read, "Feet (noun): a device used for finding Legos in the dark."
Wow, isn't that the truth.
No matter where you step, no matter where you look, no matter where you sit, there are Legos. For the next 10 days (minus weekends) I am going to share with you some ideas on how you can take those precious but pesky little objects and use them in your homeschool. Imagine the delight on your child's face when you break out the Legos right in the middle of homeschool lessons!
However, before we get started, here are some FAQs:
How can I store our Legos when they are not being played with?
I have the absolute most perfect solution a mom could ever dream of…the Lay-n-Go. Seriously, Amy Fazackerley is a genius. Simply put, the Lay-n-Go (besides being one of the most brilliant products I have ever seen) is a activity mat, cleanup, storage and carryall solution in one. The Lay-n-Go comes in 2 difference sizes – small is 18″ inches and the large one is a whopping 5 feet!
I simply cannot recommend this product enough and I know I am not alone, since it has won numerous awards including the The Mom's Choice Awards®. Watch the short video below how easy Lego clean-up can be!
I was so blessed that the founder, Amy, sent me a large one to review and I am happily recommending it to everyone I know. She is also generously offering a 10% discount off any Lay-n-Go purchase until April 30th. Just use the code heart10 at checkout.
Be sure to show your support of Legos by becoming a fan of Lay-n-Go on Facebook and Twitter.
Where can I purchase a whole lot of Legos and not go broke?
We have bought several loads of bulk Legos from sellers on Ebay. Do a search for legos pounds and then specify Buy It Now and Free Shipping in the sidebar selections. We have purchased several 4 to 6 pound shipments of various Legos for less than $40! Here is our most recent purchase, all spread out in our handy Lay-n-Go.
Are there any books out there for Lego lovers?
Of course! There are early readers, chapter books, sticker books, idea books and more! Here are some of our favorites. Click the image for details:
Lego Idea Books
Character Encyclopedias
Sticker Books
Books for Lego fans who are learning to read
Join me for a 10 day series about using Legos in your homeschool, April 16-20 and 23-27. This 10 Days Series is organized by iHomeschool Network, a collaboration of outstanding homeschool bloggers who connect with each other and with family-friendly companies in mutually beneficial projects. Visit us on Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter. And of course, click the image below to visit all the 10 Days posts from these homeschool moms of the iHomeschool Network.

Ooooh, I am going to LOVE this series! (And my boys will benefit greatly, I'm sure…) Awesome links, Amy, thanks!
Oh, that looks really nice! WE use a blanket to dump them on and then put them back in containers….I'll have to check this out!
Being the mom of a huge LEGO lover, I appreciated this post. I have never seen the Lay-N-Go, but I'm going to look at it now!!
The character encyclopedias are a huge hit in our house, too.
I can't wait for the rest of your series!
I am so looking forward to this series. Is it sad that we have read or have almost all of those books.
We love legos! That lay-and-go looks so cool! Right now we have a plastic tub with a hinged top that holds our bulk legos. We have also used those plasic stackable drawer/bins in the past.
I am excited for this series!
Mama Jenn
Looking forward to your series! We were JUST at the library today trying to find some lego books! Thanks for the recommendations!
Inger - The Brick Life
Needless to say I love Lego so will be looking forward to visiting your blog over the next 10 days. I hadn't heard of the Lay-And-Go products before but have implemented similar concepts in my Lego-mad family over the last decade.
Sometimes I think quilts were born to be Lego mats!
Thanks for the great start to the series and I'll check in again tomorrow

Hey, look! I made it around to your 10 Day series! (I'm still working down the list..)
I have a relatively new serious lego lover in my house. He got his first legos for his bday in November and more for Christmas. I bought some on ebay to get him started — and I need to get more! =p Looking forward to reading through your resources!
This was SO fun to read. I can't wait to see how and when I can use this info.
dDebbie Du bois
When my son played with legos I hated cleaning them up. So we would put down aquilt or light blanket. Anything off the blanket he was in charge of picking up. We stored them in a green tote. We still have legos in the tote.
Love the 10 days of teaching with Legos. A couple of months ago my son started his own Lego blog. http://www.buildinglegoswithchrist.blogspot.com
He uses his Legos for just about everything.

text: Siobhan, Thanks for posting the interesting info, but I'm having trouble understand what you meant by your first statement: In Italy, Mardi Gras, or carnival, as it was called (which is from the Latin "carne vale,: or farewell to meat, indicating a period of fasting to follow) was a much moer elaborate affair in Italy. If I take out the statement between commas, I get: In Italy, Mardi Gras was a much moer elaborate affair in Italy. Where was it more elaborate? In Italy? than in Italy? More elaborate than where, France? Thanks. Stefan, the curious but confused. I find the source of our word carnival particularly interesting.

Please excuse if a similiar thread has been posted; I don't get here that often. I would love to see a mag to a story entitled "Fire and Ice" featuring S & V. Of course, baby girl would be fire and our oh so cool, big sis would be ice. I think the media is finally grasping the fact that they are very different. Serena is always pumping her fist and shouting, Come on!" While Venus acts like it is just another day at the old 9 to 5; very cool, methodical, ice water in her veins, fighting off 8 match points to a win. I can picture Serena in a red fur with a hot red nightgown (fake fur of course). And Venus in a white fur with a white dress. That would be so cool.

Mayan People's Movement Defeats Monsanto Law in Guatemala
- Details
- Published on Monday, 15 September 2014 20:19
(Guatemala, September 15, 2014) - On September 4th, after ten days of widespread street protests against the biotech giant Monsanto's expansion into Guatemalan territory, groups of indigenous people joined by social movements, trade unions and farmer and women's organizations won a victory when congress finally repealed the legislation that had been approved in June.
The demonstrations were concentrated outside the Congress and Constitutional Court in Guatemala City during more than a week, and coincided with several Mayan communities and organizations defending food sovereignty through court injunctions in order to stop the Congress and the President, Otto Perez Molina, from letting the new law on protection of plant varieties, known as the "Monsanto Law", take effect.
On September 2, the Mayan communities of Sololá, a mountainous region 125 kilometers west from the capital, took to the streets and blocked several main roads. At this time a list of how individual congressmen had voted on the approval of the legislation in June was circulating.

Nyéléni Newsletter: Community struggles for the defence of their territories - New Edition

- Published on Monday, 15 September 2014 17:04
Landgrabbing continues unabated worldwide.
It is not only about the use of industrial agricultural means to engage in the monoculture of primary resources for exportation, or the delocalised production of foodstuffs for other countries. It implies extractivism: control of water, mining, oil industries, deforestation, drug trafficking, environmental services and REDD projects (land areas held in disregards or so called marginal lands), and the subsequent speculation on these, followed by real estate, tourism, urban development, military geopolitics and much more.
In this edition of the Nyéléni Newsletter we want to make an overview of this process and of the possibilities of resisting it from our communities.

U.S. Farmworkers and Palestinian Farmers share 2014 Food Sovereignty Prize

Honorees Represent Communities Defending Their Human Rights to Food in the Face of Policies of Land and Water Grabbing, Migration, and Militarization
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: September 9, 2014
Des Moines, IA — The US Food Sovereignty Alliance (USFSA) is honored to name the Union of Agricultural Work Committees (UAWC) of Palestine, based in Gaza and the West Bank, and Community to Community Development /Comunidad a Comunidad (C2C) of Bellingham, Washington, as co-recipients of the 2014 Food Sovereignty Prize.
Their stories of continuous struggle to defend the rights of their communities – farmers and fishers in the occupied Palestinian territories and migrant Mexican farm workers in Washington State, both seeking to produce their own food, on their own land, in their home communities – stand in stark contrast to the storylines coming from agribusiness: that technological changes to crops can meet human needs and resolve hunger.

Invitation to sign on statement to denounce corporate takeover of Climate Summit.
- Details
- Published on Thursday, 11 September 2014 14:41
We call upon all fellow social movements, peoples organizations and environmental and climate justice movements to sign on this statement and join us in this call to action.
On the 23rd of September, United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon, will host a Climate Summit in New York, bringing political leaders, big business and a highly select few civil society representatives. The Summit has been surrounded by a lot of fanfare but proposes voluntary pledges for emission cuts, market-based and destructive public-private partnership initiatives such as REDD+, Climate-Smart Agriculture and the Sustainable Energy for All Initiative. These are all false solutions of the green economy that seeks to further commodify life and nature and further capitalist profit. The undersigned social movements that all together represent more than 200 million people around the world, denounce this corporate take over of the UN and the climate negotiations process and call for a deep systemic change.

text: IRS: We Investigate Pro-Israel Groups for Terrorism Ties Print article Send a Tip by Joel B. Pollak 17 Jun 2013 post a comment More: IRS Scandal Eliana Johnson of National Review Online reports that Cincinnati-based IRS agent Gary Muthert told the House Oversight Committee that the IRS does, in fact, subject pro-Israel tax-exempt groups to higher scrutiny--by sending their applications to a special IRS unit that investigates them for ties to terrorism. It is unclear whether the IRS subjects anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian, or Islamic groups to the same scrutiny. However, the revelation could provide a partial explanation of why pro-Israel groups such as Z Street were subjected to excessive inquiry and delay. Johnson notes that, as reported by Breitbart News, anti-Israel groups had been pressuring the Treasury to investigate (only) Jewish charities for assisting beneficiaries in the disputed West Bank--though not even those groups thought to describe such activities as "terrorism." Z Street, Johnson observes, was not told that its application was being reviewed for possible terrorism ties, but rather that it was being scrutinized for possible conflicts with the Obama administration's foreign policy. The administration has worked closely with a left-wing non-profit called J Street to push Congress toward a tougher approach to Israel, and to attack critics of the Obama administration's policy and its appointees. The irony of pro-Israel groups being screened for terror, when some of those groups exist primarily to assist victims of terror, is compounded, Johnson notes, by the fact that there is a record of anti-Israel groups supporting terror, such as the Holy Land Foundation, to which Muslim groups such as CAIR were linked.

Inspired from a salad I had at Bob Evan's last night - with a few alterations (replacing the iceberg for the more nutrient-dense spinach). The fresh fruits REALLY make this dish a tasty one!! (The times are estimates because different people take different times prepping foods, but it should NOT take long at all - especially with pre-shredded veggies). Take away the chicken for a vegan delight!

Chief Justice Terrence Higgins. Photo: Karleen Minney
A hepatitis C-positive drug addict who robbed a northside chemist with a blood-filled syringe will spend one year behind bars.
Aaron Khan was on Monday convicted of aggravated robbery in the ACT Supreme Court after pleading guilty to holding up the Capital Chemist in O'Connor earlier this year.
Khan admitted at a sentencing hearing last week that he used a syringe as a weapon because he knew it would scare the pharmacy employee into handing over drugs.
On September 2, the 28-year-old entered the Sargood Street store about 10.30pm and threatened staff with a blood-filled syringe, demanding morphine sulfate.
Staff members handed over five packets of the narcotic and he left the shop.
The court heard he knew he was infected with the blood-borne disease hepatitis C at the time.
Khan said he carried out the robbery because he was being stood over for $190.
The defence tendered records of text messages sent to the defendant in the days leading up to the robbery. One text said: ''Don't make me call the boys.''
Khan said he thought he would be kidnapped and harmed if he did not obey.
''I was reluctant to do it … [but] I was scared,'' Khan said.
''I wasn't thinking about the consequences.''
The court heard Khan demanded prescription medication because it had ''high appeal on the street''.
Khan denied the drugs were for personal use: ''If it were for me I would've taken amphetamine or methamphetamine,'' he said.
Chief Justice Terence Higgins said Khan's early guilty plea and minor criminal history entitled him to leniency.
''[But] the offence is a serious one and one which attracts a period of imprisonment.''
Chief Justice Higgins noted Khan had an ''unfortunate background'', including a childhood marred by domestic violence, a history of drug and alcohol abuse since age 13 and mental illness.
The judge accepted that the defendant felt genuine remorse and showed good prospects of rehabilitation.
He jailed Khan for three years, backdated to take into account 96 days already spent in custody, with a non-parole period of 12 months.
He recommended Khan spend his time behind bars in the Solaris program for the treatment of substance misuse.

Ask anyone to describe French style and you're likely to hear terms like "chic," "classic," and the all-too-common "je ne sais quoi" tossed about. The look may seem effortless, but it's not all #wokeuplikethis beauty routines and a bateau top. Even for fashion nerds like us, there's a bit of can't-put-a-finger-on-it mystery.
The real secrets to French dressing, however, can only be found at the source — the eight magnifique women ahead who fuel our Francophilia.
What we learned from giving these fashion denizens the third degree is that while their style is timeless, they're definitely not playing it safe. Whether you vibe with the cool, gamine charm of Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent muse Inès de la Fressange or the wildly eccentric joie de vivre of Carlyne Cerf de Dudzeele, you'll want to listen up as they divulge the tips, gripes, and even misconceptions of the style we admire so much.

Flo Fab reports that Craig Hopson is the man wholl replace Le Cirques departed chef, Christophe Bellanca. This is a big step for Hopson, a 37-year-old who recently made a splash bringing culinary cred to One If by Land, Two If by Sea. Before that, he was a chef de cuisine at Picholine under Terrance Brennan, who of course was once a chef at Le Cirque. So in a weird way, the restaurant is coming full circle. Its going to be a huge challenge, Hopson tells the Times. The menu needs some kind of game, venison, more wintry stuff but all done with the highest French techniques. Looks like hes getting right to work as they say, out of the kitchen, into the fire. Well see whether One If by Land seeks another rising-star chef or whether this burns them on it.

Flowers for our wedding. Clara was unable to deliver the flowers to us on the day of the wedding but her assistant did great filling in - she made sure boutonnière's were placed on all the men and made sure all my coming flowers were set up. I can not thank Clara and her assistant enough for the hard work they put into making our wedding day perfect. Highly recommend for quality and value and great service!

Clara was a fun and collaborative person who created just the right flower designs to make our daughter's wedding so special at the Uptown theater.

I'm so glad that my Aunt-in-law recommended Clara and her work! I had a tight budget but Clara worked with me so I had my vision come to life! My bridal bouquet was GORGEOUS (draped, elegant and popping with the right colors) and the bridal party had romantic & beautiful bouquets (and halos for the flower girls). I planned my wedding from out-of-state and Clara drew me a sketch, was very responsive to all my e-mails and pinterest posts, AND above all DELIVERED on everything promised. Loved working with her!

Clara did a wonderful job on the flowers and decor for our wedding. She was easy to contact/schedule and so fun to work with. I didn't have many specifics on what I wanted, aside from a color scheme, and she took that idea and ran with it to create the most beautiful fall boquets. She was friendly and helpful and worked to give us what we wanted within our budget. It was so comforting to know that she would take care of everything from coming to the church with the flowers to going over to the reception to set up the centerpieces. Everything was done to perfection!

Clara does amazing flowers and is an exceptional value! All of my flowers for my wedding were perfect and I really feel like we got an excellent deal. I met with her to discuss what I had in mind and I loved how honest she was on whether or not something would work out. If what you want is going to be out of season and look poorly, she will tell you and come back with a better idea! I love that kind of honesty! She is very willing to work within your budget, and has great ideas on how to recreate the look of a particularly expensive flower at a lower price-point. Clara is excellent and I would recommend her in a heartbeat!

Clara was so much fun to work with. She was professional and creative. Since we had a winter wedding we had different challenges. She was able to get flowers others were not able to get. She was priced just the same as grocery stores but I felt like I got a personal treatment when working with her. My flowers were amazing and she designed some beautiful centerpieces!

The flowers for our wedding were fantastic! I showed Clara a picture of my dress and a antique lace fan I wanted to incorporate into my bouquet and she created something to match it perfectly. She was right on time when delivering the flowers and my bridesmaids loved theirs as well. The flowers were elegant and classic which was exactly the theme I was going for.

I used Clara's Flowers based on a recommendation from a friend. She was wonderful. A side note, if you get her early, she has lots of advice and insider scoop on other vendors and how they are to work with (should you need it).
Clara's flowers were lovely. She did a great job on everything. Prices are so reasonable. And I had a hard time narrowing down my flowers, and she was very helpful walking through my photos with me and telling me what would work, what wouldn't and giving lots of guidance. I ended up really happy with the flowers she provided.

Holiday Giveaway: Bound For Anything Custom Journals
December 18, 2012
Some people love stationery. A lot. These are the people who browse stationery stores like others do cheese shops, picking up notebooks and greeting cards, smelling, weighing, pressing the pages between their fingers, thrilled by the possibilities within. These people are often diligent list makers, brainstormers, budgeters and recorders of funny expressions overheard in the subway.
I am one of those people. I carry around a total of four notebooks with me at all times: the day planner for appointments (never, ever trust your iphone to keep up with time-zone hopping), the list journal, the ideas journal, and the diary. I have slimmed down over the years, shedding the fuzzy-heart adorned secret-keepers of my youth in favor of lighter, more "mature" versions. Ahem. I swear. Continue Reading »

A French Country Home Dream: Buying near Bordeaux, France
November 14, 2012
The Dordogne river (Doni Belau)
I'm often asked why we bought the house (in France) that we did, in this tiny town whose name we can barely pronounce and that's even harder to find on a map. What about your first love, Paris? People ask.
Well, I was fortunate enough to have a deliciously beautiful apartment in Paris for six years from which one could hear the bells of St. Sulpice. We eventually had to sell it because the value had gone up considerably and we used what we made to help pay for our children's college educations.

Looking For An Excuse To Visit Brussels? Here Are Three
October 25, 2012
Michal Osmenda
Beer, frites, comics. Blah, blah, blah. No disrespect to lovers of ambers and ales, salty, fried foods, or Tintin, but there's so much more to Brussels, capital of Belgium—capital of all of Europe—than these perennially touted attractions. Here are three lesser-celebrated reasons to hop on a train and make the 80-minute trip from Paris.
Chocolate boutique in Brussels (flavijus)
At first glance, the architecture in Brussels is incongruous—ugly, even. But in that odd stew of styles are treasures from many eras. Continue Reading »

My Paris for Your…? Dos & Don'ts For a Successful Home Exchange
September 24, 2012
Paris (Haven in Paris)
The idea seemed too good to pass up. I'd exchange my Paris flat for a place in San Francisco for two weeks to visit family. Two whole weeks! Rent-and-hotel bill free! And we'd do it in August when no one really wants to be in Paris, anyway. I'd heard stories about fabulous swaps that didn't end in identity or home accessories theft. With a little luck and a few well-lit interior pics, I was sure it could work for us, too. And so my search was on.
Paris (karigee)
After several near-commitments that folded at the eleventh hour ("I had no idea airfare would be that expensive…" and "Off to Rome instead. Sorry!"), we swapped for a sweet little house just over the Golden Gate Bridge. It sounded perfect: Three-bedrooms with a view of Mt. Tamalpais complete with a private dock on a small saltwater lagoon. Continue Reading »

At My French Country Home in Normandy, we love to go antiquing.

Channeling Monet: An Afternoon at Giverny
May 24, 2012
Billbooz & Thezartorialist
I've never been a particularly big fan of Monet's paintings. Yes, they're pretty—that much is undeniable. He certainly cornered the market on water lilies and haystacks. But I suppose I've developed a sense of indifference toward his work because it's so ubiquitous. He's one of the first artists I learned about (in a cursory 5th grade unit on art history) and whose work I learned to recognize with ease. But then suddenly it was everywhere: mouse pads, t-shirts, calendars, and the walls of countless dorm rooms I would encounter during my high school and college years. Before I knew it, I was Monet-ed out.
Pierre J
But once I moved to Paris, I kept hearing about Giverny, the quaint village where Monet famously made his home from 1883 until his death in 1926. It's here that he cultivated the celebrated garden that many of his most famous works depict. Suddenly, unexpectedly, my long dormant interest in Monet was revitalized. Continue Reading »

Day-Tripping Through Liguria: From Genoa to Cinqueterre and Beyond
May 17, 2012
Our very own Erica Berman has just landed in Genoa for her yearly stint in Liguria, her favorite region of Italy. This still relatively untouched corner of Italy is one of our favorite spots for experiencing authentic Italian living in a gorgeous, seaside setting. Until the rest of us are able to make it there ourselves, we can live vicariously through Marisa's gorgeous photography… -Geneviève
Sarzana details
I'll just put it right out there: I love Liguria, and centrally situated Genoa is the perfect home base from which to delve into and savor Liguria's many enchanting qualities and seaside cities. A maritime marvel, La Superba (the proud or the haughty, as it was once known) rivaled Venice as a powerful city-state for over 500 years. And while the splendor of its storied past as a seafaring legend is evident in the magnificent UNESCO-protected Strade Nuove and Palazzi dei Rolli, Genoa's real charm is its present-day incarnation as a working port city.
This is a city that doesn't bend over backwards to market itself to tourists. The result is an authentic Italian metropolis, more accustomed to the visiting Milanese than Manhattanite. As a traveler who thrives on finding and experiencing those places that aren't (yet) teeming with fellow Americans, Genoa is a joy for me. Plus, I'm a sucker for labyrinthine medieval lanes, which Genoa has in spades. Continue Reading »

A Fairy Tale Wedding at a French Chateau
April 23, 2012
Is there anything more romantic than a wedding in a French chateau? For part 2 of her story, Paige Frost takes us through her last-minute preparations for the big day…- Geneviève
One and Only Paris Photography
Most brides obsess over something. Will the flowers look right? Will my dress fit after the alterations? Will the DJ play YMCA (even though I begged him not to)? Will Uncle Bill get smashed and ruin the reception?
And then there's the mother of all bridal worries — the one none of us can control and yet endlessly fret over: the weather.
One and Only Paris Photography
We planned our wedding at a French chateau in May knowing full well that the weather could not be counted on – not in May or any other time of year. (This is France, after all). And so, with a million and one concerns filling my bride-addled brain, I focused on rain. Will it or won't it? And what will we do if?
One and Only Paris Photography
Despite my obsession, there was no time to lose: A hundred plus guests were descending on Paris from locales as far flung as San Francisco and Sarajevo. Everything had to be perfect and I had to oversee it all. I'd spent my first year here planning every last detail. If I could just get everyone from Paris down to the chateau in Burgundy, surely the festivities would all come off without a hitch? Continue Reading »

There are many fights for the City of Omaha that seem like a never-ending battle. Among those is graffiti.
Wednesday, the city hosted a conference to help fight what it calls the "gateway crime."
Ken Stoysich, owner of Stoysich House of Sausage is one graffiti victim that prefers to spend his time preparing and serving his meat products, rather than cleaning those messes on his building.
Sometimes graffiti artists will add another name to the outside of his business, leaving him with a lot of extra work.
"What are you going to do? You get mad, and paint over it, and hope they leave you alone for a while," says Stoysich.
Stoysich isn't alone in the battle.
Graffiti has been a problem in Omaha for years, but the city is fighting back hard.
It's recently hosted the Heartland Anti-Graffiti Symposium, sharing its successes and listening to others'.
Omaha Public Works says it has found big success in the last 15 months by engaging the community to work together, sharing best practices to remove graffiti, and training staff, and law enforcement to catch the criminals.
They say this is important because graffiti is a gateway crime.
"They start being exposed to more and more criminal activities; theft, alcohol and drug abuse is huge in the graffiti subculture, violent behavior such as domestic abuse," says Heather Tippey Pierce, of the Omaha Public Works Department.
The city says graffiti has gone down dramatically over the past years. However, in areas like 24th or Vinton Streets, it's still a pretty big problem.
Stoysich, whose business is along 24th Street, has found his own way to fight the problem. If he removes the graffiti right away, the taggers leave him alone. "Well if their handiwork isn't there anymore, they kind of give up and say 'OK, well, we'll never see our work in the daylight because it's gone already,'" Stoysich says.
Those attending the Heartland Anti-Graffiti Symposium came from as far as North Dakota, Texas, and even New York.
