Carmela’s On the Extension in Middletown
What I love about this area is that it’s new for us both so when we want to eat someplace it’s a new experience. I usually google best breakfast or whatever cuisine we are craving. This morning we decided to try Carmela’s On the Extension and it was delicious.
Adorable country feel to it. We felt like we were on vacation. Very country inside too and the food and staff were great.
What’s a new spot you have tried recently?

Healing…A Process
Not all company is good company. Be sure to realize who is and isn’t good for you. Then take the space to heal.

The Tradition Continues…Breakfast in Bed
It all began when my youngest was three. She wanted breakfast in bed. On her birthday. Every year. She always asked. Her request repeated and I continued to do it.
Then her sisters were born and they joined in too.
So now every year. For everyone’s birthday. Everyone gets to enjoy breakfast in bed. They pick the day and the meal.
For years I used whatever random serving trays I had. This year I finally said trays for all. It makes it easier and special.
Our tradition grew and now my boyfriend and his daughter get to join in on the fun.
It’s always easiest when the kids request food out. I do try to add extra loving to the tray. And we always have to stick a candle in and sing.
A tradition so small yet so rewarding. They remember it. They ask for it. They all get to enjoy it. It’s a treat for everyone.
What birthday traditions do you have?

Face Painting By GS Fancy Faces
We met her at the St.Ann’s festival and my little one asked if she came come to her birthday party. Brilliant idea.
The kids loved it and even the adults joined in on the fun. She painted 4 faces and three tattoos within the hour. Would definitely have her come back again.

Happy 7th…
Birthday to my youngest. The fashionista in the family. She’s a tough cookie. She can be super sensitive but doesn’t take no as an answer. She’s really funny and her fashion sense is well above mine.
She is really independent and her eyes are stunning. She’s my youngest and it’s weird to say the number 7. 6 is so much younger to me.
Wishing her a lifetime of not changing- only around me- but to really keep being who she is because for someone so small she’s got this super confidence that even adults never ever achieve.

Urban Air in Orange, CT
This place is AMAZING! I took the day off to originally bring the kids to Mystic but it was so hot out that I remember coming across this website for an indoor park. I messaged some friends and they have been recently and loved it.
It’s a blast!
They have it all. Go carts, bumper cars, ropes, zip lining, trampolines, laser tag, obstacle courses, arcade, virtual reality games… it was so clean and the staff was super friendly and helpful.
We went after lunch and stayed for hours. We bought unlimited passes for the day. It was worth it. Kids did everything for as long as they wanted.
I can’t wait to go back. You get half off if you come 5:00 to closing time. If you haven’t been you gotta go.
