Reduced Prices on Ice Cream Sundaes this Sunday!!!

I love going to Millburn Orchards. I get a regular e-mail from them and so I got this announcement:

"Sundae Sunday" this Sunday at Milburns...July 18th is National Ice Cream Day! Join us on the deck to celebrate this "Sundae Sunday". All your favorite toppings on your custom-built ice cream sundae are on us all day...all other Ice Cream selections are 1/3 off! 11am-5pm, Raindate 7/25"

Enjoy your Sundae!

Music in the North East park this Sunday from 6-8 pm featuring Bluegrass band Dean Sapp and the Harford Express. Bring a picnic, chairs and spend a lovely 2 hours listening to a local band. Price: FREE!

Lots of free things to do in the summer if you scout around for them. I will try to be better about posting them here.

Another free thing is on Aug. 10th. Come to the North East library for the Frugal Club!!! 6:30-7:45. Bring blank copies of whatever budget system(s) you use. We will talk about what we use, what works for us and what doesn't. I am always in quest of the perfect budget system. (I am also in quest of the budget system that actually works... but that is another story!)

Finding Help in Difficult Times

This is the title of the Enoch Pratt Library's web page that helps someone to get to government web sites that offer assistance. When I saw this post on the librarian list serve that I am on, I thought it would concentrate on the Baltimore Area but it has Maryland and Federal links.

Finding Help in Difficult Times

I also wrote several articles last year for help in and around our county. I am going to link to them here but let me know if there are problems.
