Lisa Gipson Finding Good Shaved Ice, Anyone?
Have you ever wished you could make light, fluffy snow cones like the stuff they make in Hawaii? Well, now you can. Little Snowie 2 is a professional-grade ice shaver that’s small enough for home and light enough to transport to the pool, park or a party. Plus, it cranks out 8 ounces of shaved ice in less than five seconds! No exposed blades make it safe enough for children (ages 8+) to operate: simply push the top. Try Little Snowie’s syrups (our favorite is coconut!) or add your own. Available on Amazon.
Happy 70th Anniversary to San Diego Junior Theatre!
Perhaps you remember an article we published in November about San Diego dad and Navy Chief Johnathon Stone. Now he has a book! When Johnathon’s wife Sarah was diagnosed with a rare terminal cancer, he knew he had to make the most of every moment. #TeamStone always believed there is good in every day. Finding Good is a firsthand look at Sarah and Johnathon’s journey, from high school sweethearts to raising four children and everything in between. It’s an inspirational story of spreading hope through acts of kindness, even while handling life’s ups and downs. Get the book on Amazon.
