Support your local businesses!! That's us too!!

ThreeVillagePeople.com started out as a place for local small businesses and artisans to affordably showcase/advertise their work. It was an idea that was actually ahead of it's time. Since it's inception, there has been a dramatic shift in the economic climate of the country which has made this concept all the more appealing.

Keeping commerce in our local community is good for all of us. Our "villagers" have embraced this idea in a big way. People tell me all the time that when they need a carpenter, gift, arborist, massage therapist or gynechologist, they always consult http://www.threevillagepeople.com
You will observe at our Networking Nights, a commraderie like no other. Everyone is supporting eachother and cheering one another on. Anyone's individual success is an achievement for us all.

In allignment with this idea, we ourselves are a local business. As more and more websites pop up touting locality, they are often national conglomerates or companies not even in our own state. However, internet websites can be local businesses as well. That's us!! So when you are considering where to put your advertising dollars, remember we are part of your community.
Come be part of our village~!!!

Summer!!!!

Did it absolutely take forever for summer to get here? I haven't felt like it was truly summer until about a week ago when I heard the cicada's and crickets singing for what seemed like the first time....
But, better late than never. Soak it up, Relish the sun, the friends, the beach, the music, the gatherings.....make the most of it. Having less sometimes makes us appreciate what we have all the more.

Go for it!!

Summer Snacking Tips from Barbara Ann Grova

Q: How do I keep away from my kids snacks during the crazy summer days when regular meals don't happen?
A: No one enjoys cooking in the heat of summer. Both kids and parents are out and about and having a set meal time becomes more difficult. You find yourself nibbling at whatever is available. The important thing to do is Plan Ahead:
Buy fresh fruit and vegetables to cut up and store in the refrigerator for easy snacking and finger foods for kids.
Steer clear of buying packaged snacks with added sugars, fats and calories.
Serve cold foods in the summer. Smoothies are real quick and easy to make and nutritious too. Smoothie ice pops are a great treat! Email us for Barbara's Yummy Smoothie Recipes! nutritionheals@optonline.net
Snacking throughout the day is good for your body. It keeps your blood sugar levels steady and your metabolism balanced. But make sure that they are healthy choices for you and the kids!
