Help out those with cancer and get a great haircut in the process! Artistic Hair is hosting an event on Sunday, October 16th from 9am-3pm where all profits will be given to the Jill Foundation, a non-profit organization that financially helps out hairdressers in Orange who have been diagnosed with breast cancer.

Spotted Moth opened its doors on South Glassell only a few weeks ago, but it has been in business for over a year and a half. They started as an online clothing store so they could build a clientele base and reach as many people as possible. They did so well in that short amount of time that Spotted Moth now calls Old Towne Orange its home. I stopped by the store last week and I have to say that I LOVED it!

Just wanted to post a quickie update that I finally went in to Plaza 1forty9 Cafe since they changed over from Henry’s and there were a few differences, but not many. The decor was slightly changed and I noticed a new window treatment when I was driving by the other day that looked pretty good. Their menu has a few new items, including a variety of hot dogs (like dogzilla, chi-town dog, empire state dog and ole town orange dog) and some new appetizers like poppers and wings. You’ll also find their rotisserie, popular skewers and several other items still on the menu.

As I walked up to Orange Circle Tattoo on E. Chapman this weekend, I first noticed a sweet black hot rod with music pouring out of it parked outside. When I walked inside, it was not at all what I expected it be. It was like walking into a tiki bar/art gallery rather than a typical tattoo parlor. There was colorful artwork all over the walls, small totem polls, a big black Harley and other eye-catching pieces. Most tattoo shops have tattoo artwork in frames all over the walls so people can come choose a tattoo from something they see. That’s not what Gabe Csobi, the owner, envisioned for his shop.

A member of the local MOPS group named Alyssa recently reached out to me to see if I would spread the word about MOPS and being that I’ve never been in a mom’s group, I asked her if she would guest write this post based on her own experience. If you’ve been looking for a mom’s group to get involved in, this one might be a perfect match for you and your kids. Thank you Alyssa for taking the time to do this!
