Earth Hour

Earth Hour is a worldwide climate change initiative in which people across the globe turn off their lights for one hour to save energy and show their support for environmental protection. You can take part without sitting home in the dark! We too will turn off some of our lights, and we invite you to shop in a more relaxed setting. The first 75 customers shopping this hour will receive a free flashlight. To learn more, visit earthhourus.com

Noodles and Company

Tommie and I LOVE Noodles and Company!!! Most of you in the community know about their great pad thai noodles and how willing the staff is to work with you on preparing a gluten-free meal. Well, I wanted to make sure that everyone knows about their birthday club. Tommie has this habit of signing up for the birthday club coupons for every restaurant we go to (Texas Roadhouse, Coldstone Creamery, etc.). And the great thing is, every year on his birthday he has about 3-4 free entrees at to select from. This year we decided to go to Noodles and Company and you gotta love getting free meal just for being born! If you love this place as much as we do, you should definitely sign up, it is totally worth it.

You can sign up for a 'noodlegram' by going to their website:
