The 2024 presidential election motivated me to have a birthday do-over

At the Pittsburgh Ballet Theater Pointe in Time Emerald Gala Today marks a week since my birthday.  Its occurrence is a tremendous blessing. Because all around us are reminders about the fragility of life. To that end, my brother, who always makes a point to celebrate me, took me to the Pittsburgh Ballet Theater's Pointe in Time Emerald Gala on November 2d. That was the beginning of my birthday celebrations. And then, on my birthday itself, I got a bit of a surprise... My actual birthday was tough. It was Election Day. And, I spent the day working polls as a part of an election protection effort. My efforts were designed to protect all voters. However, deep in my heart I love my AKA sister, Kamala Harris and I hoped for her historic victory. Then, much to my chagrin and despite my efforts—and those of thousands more—she lost.

Friday Tip: “Free” Date Night in Pittsburgh (A Treat for Parents)

on
I know that at the beginning of the new year, and in this economy, a lot of us are committed to saving money. Does that mean that we have to sacrifice our good times? NO!

Blue restaurant in Allison Park is offering up free sushi as part of their Friday happy hour every week. You get unlimited access to the sushi bar from 5:30-7:00 PM on Fridays when you buy a drink. They generally offer a variety of sushi each week. Happy hour runs from 5-7 and also includes other affordable appetizers and drink specials--$5 martinis and wines.

For my swinging single followers, a date from 5-7 probably seems really early. However, for parents, especially those of us with toddlers who turn into pumpkins (or screaming little gremlins, at 8:30PM a date from 5:00PM-7:00PM is just right!

I have actually never been to Blue and they’re not paying me for this shout out. I’m just trying to help y’all have affordable fun. Also, I LOVE sushi and would eat it in LARGE quantities everyday if I could afford to. So, I’ll probably be checking this out sometime soon. To that end, you should probably go soon. They may stop this free promotion after I eat them out of house and home while sipping tonic water… 
You can also invite your friends and look like a big spender while spending very little. If you visit restaurant.com you can get a $25 certificates to use at Blue. Sometimes you can score these coupons for only $2.
