Last year we started Buy Local Month. Not because we weren’t happy about Small Business Saturday but because we believe shopping local, being entertained locally and acting local shouldn’t be contained to one day after the big box stores had their sales. We wanted our community to be one that supported our local musicians, artists, musicians and children during this holiday season. We have started delivering our Holiday issue of our magazine and you can pick those up at partner locations. This is going to be a page you want to book mark as we have become a curator of all things local. Here are some of the events, sales and other things you may want to see this week:

The Cigar Smoker is a tough one to buy for this Holiday Season. One thing we love with Southern Kentucky’s Buy Local Month 2016 is when local businesses like Bowling Green Pipe & Cigar give us options like the Kentucky Fire Cured cigar.
The biggest difference with Kentucky Fire-Cured is the inclusion of – you guessed it! – American fire-cured tobacco leaves from Kentucky and Virginia. While normally tobacco is air-cured, these special leaves are left to hang in specially-constructed curing barns, a process that dates back more than 200 years and that imbues each leaf with a rich, smoky, slightly sweet flavor that boasts exceptional balance and uniqueness. Notes of oak, hickory, and maple-laced sweetness explode on the palate.
Gift Cards are available which is another great reason to choose the local shop over online. Check out Bowling Green Pipe and Cigar onfacebook. Located at 434 East Main on fountain square you can reach them at 904-2285. Open Monday through Saturday 11:00 am-8:00 pm.

On this Veterans Day we’d like to thank the Veterans who served our country in war and peace time. In actions they may not have agreed with but went to anyway. For those who loved this country so much that they would sacrifice their time in country and with family to be elsewhere representing our nation. On this Veterans Day we say Thank You to those soldiers and their families who sacrificed with them.

On our Social Media over the past month we’ve had segments from a conversation we’ve had with Dr. Liz Sternberg. We talked to other parents who had used it and thought it was really helping their kids and so we wanted to know more. First, from the website:
The focus fidget concept was initially created by my son, Jack, with my assistance as part of a school invention project to solve a problem. The problem Jack chose “|to solve” was to help kids stay alert and focused while learning. Jack has high functioning autism and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD.
He, like many other kids, finds it challenging to learn when he is required to sit still for prolonged periods of time. Jack is a kinesthetic learner—he learns best when moving his body and feeling his environment. The focus fidget has helped Jack become a more focused learner at school and home. We hope you will enjoy the benefits of the focus fidget too!
The vision of EPS Pediatric Services, LLC, the company that manufactures and retails The Focus Fidget and its related products, is to support individuals with special needs. With some luck and a lot of hard work, we hope to expand our business in the futures so that we may provide employment opportunities for individuals with special needs.
We wanted to learn more than what you typically can on a website so here are three short videos. First, how it came to be in existence:
Great info from Active Living Research:
How does the Focus Fidget Work? I know it seems simple but there was time put in it and some other functions I didn’t notice at first glance.
Lastly, what is the science behind The Focus Fidget:
To purchase a Focus Fidget for your family go to their website, thefocusfidget.com. They are also on Facebook and are active in answering questions from parents, kids and those who need a little help focusing at work!

Sasa and Jake have a great idea. Make the Pub experience better than just wings and beer with generic sports themes. They’ve accomplished that with Pub by Novo and we’ll show how the process to create this beautiful space happened in a future story but today let’s get down to it. The restaurant will be open to try on Thursday and here is a sneak peak of the menu (so far, Sasa is allowed to change his mind):
Pub by Novo is located 2425 Scottsville Road by the Greenwood Mall. You can follow them on Social Media via Facebook and Instagram. Opening for the Public this Thursday. They will have online ordering and to-go soon and Open for Lunch later next month. Check out BuyLocalBG on Instagram Story and Snapchat today October 24th for our tour of the restaurant.

The time is nigh, Bg, for the 3rd installment of the Pop-Up Art & Comic Shop The Falcon’s Nest + FFOYA House. Our first two events were huge successes and we’re looking forward to this one being the best one yet!
I think we’d all agree that our beloved Bowling Green has an amazing local art & music & foodie community. Unfortunately, though, not everyone is given the opportunity to display their art in local gallleries, studios, etc. generally due to lack of funds or connections. There exists in our small town a whole slew of young (and not-so-young) up-and-coming artists, craftsmen, and musicians, whom you may have not yet had the pleasure of meeting. This event was originally birthed in order to change that. We’d love to introduce you to these artists. Each artist/craftsmen will have a booth set up in our home, with their work on display and for sale, from 3-7 that evening at the Falcon’s Nest. bring yo’ cash monies to support all of these uber-talented people! We’ll have artists from all backgrounds and trades, including, but not limited to….
>Tori Trujillo– Hand-embroidered designs and original paintings
>Meranda Caswell– Found object jewelry artist who specializes in hand-crafted resin pendants, guages, and more.
>Victoria Cortazzo–
> Timbo Slice–Graffitti artist
> Katie Reetzke– Hand-made clothing & terrariums
> Loren Gifford– Photographer

Most of the information you need to know is featured on the event poster, which was designed by our own, Chuck Falcon. But, there are a couple other things happening at this shin-dig that we want to fill you in on…
1.) We will be having a raffle throughout the evening in which each artist will donate a piece of their choosing to be raffled off to a few lucky winners. The proceeds from the raffle will go to support the bands playing this event. The raffle will last until 9, after which we will read the winners (you do not have to be present to win, as long as you’ve left your phone number on the drop ticket.)
2.) Chuck Falcon will be spinning some vinyl on the record player throughout the art show portion of the evening at The Falcon’s Nest. Be nice to him and he may be persuaded to take requests.
3.) The Falcon’s Nest has acquired a few new arcade machines in the last year, such as Centipede, Donkey Kong, and a few more, so bring your quarters and play till your heart’s content!
4.) MexOut has graciously agreed to donate a spread of some of their delectable food for the art show portion of the event, so bring your appetites! There will also be complimentary wine and craft beer, so feel free to imbibe if you’re over 21 and be sure to ‘tip’ your bartenders (these tips will also go to the bands playing the event).
I would say this is shaping up to be an incredible event! I want to give a huge thank you and shoutout to our sponsors– MexOut, Buy Local Bowling Green, The Spot, Rocky’s Bar, Spencer’s Coffee, and Calvin Wiley (the owner of soon-to-be-open cafe, ROAM). Bring your friends and family, and mark your calendars for this can’t-miss event! You won’t be disappointed.

Melissa Jolly is a well-known name around our town, as she is super involved with the local community and has been for years. She is a full-time momma, doula, lactation counselor, and last (but surely not least), jewelry artist & designer. You’ve surely peeped her work at a few local businesses and farmers markets, and now is your chance to own a piece of your very own! Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, some with hand-stamped embellishments, some pieces even customizable. Melissa can truly do it all.
The time is nigh, Bg, for the 3rd installment of the Pop-Up Art & Comic Shop The Falcon’s Nest + FFOYA House. Our first two events were huge successes and we’re looking forward to this one being the best one yet!
I think we’d all agree that our beloved Bowling Green has an amazing local art & music & foodie community. Unfortunately, though, not everyone is given the opportunity to display their art in local gallleries, studios, etc. generally due to lack of funds or connections. There exists in our small town a whole slew of young (and not-so-young) up-and-coming artists, craftsmen, and musicians, whom you may have not yet had the pleasure of meeting. This event was originally birthed in order to change that. We’d love to introduce you to these artists. Each artist/craftsmen will have a booth set up in our home, with their work on display and for sale, from 3-7 that evening at the Falcon’s Nest. bring yo’ cash monies to support all of these uber-talented people! We’ll have artists from all backgrounds and trades, including, but not limited to….
>Tori Trujillo– Hand-embroidered designs and original paintings

It’s a HUGE event for us coffee lovers in Bowling Green! The Ky-Tn Latte Art Throwdown is a special event put on by Justin Shepherd and his staff at Spencer’s Coffee to showcase the talents of Baristas from Kentucky and those to the south in the Volunteer State. From Spencer’s:
*Follow @kytn5 on Instagram for most frequent updates*
It’s back, and bigger than ever! Baristas from all over Kentucky and Tennessee will converge on the central location of Bowling Green, Ky., for the fifth annual Kentucky/Tennessee Latte Art Throwdown & Caffeination Celebration. Last year, we raised over $1,500 for the Center for Courageous Kids, a nonprofit camp in Scottsville, Ky., that serves children and families with all sorts of special needs.
The bracket for this year’s KYTN has been expanded to a madness-esque 64, and we’ll have two La Marzocco machines running full steam to keep the early rounds moving swiftly. Prizes packages for first through third places are still under construction, and will include a Baratza Virtuoso; rose gold Acaia Pearl; Levy Tamp and Shot Collar from Saint Anthony; Barista Magazine subscriptions; Mahlgut tamper from Prima Coffee; and many others TBA — there will also be drawings for second-chance prizes among competitors who don’t make the final three. We’ll have beer on tap, food available from local vendors, coffee from some of the region’s finest roasters, and much more.
Doors for the event will open at 5:30p Central time, with first pours starting at 6:30p. Buy-in for the throwdown is $10, and every single penny goes to the great work at CCK. Baristas wishing to compete can visitspencerscoffee.com/kytn5 to preregister, and are encouraged to follow @kytn5 on Instagram for updates on the event, and tag us with their best practice pours!
Spencer’s Coffeehouse is the only cafe in southcentral Kentucky offering 100% organic, 100% fair-trade coffees from around the globe, hand-roasted for Bowling Green coffee lovers in nearby Louisville. Check them out online or fan them at their facebook page.

Now, we took a trip right before school started back for city and county to the Capitol of the South, “The A,” The Empire City of the South, ATL or more appropriate Atlanta. We went when there was a ton of heat, large crowds, civil rights protests and there were zero issues getting around. Why? Because we planned properly. We stayed out by the Perimeter but most of the tourism was downtown. Here are our MUST HITS of local stuff we tried (We know there is more to explore in Atlanta and will do other posts in the future):
1. Heirloom Market- We found this on a prior trip while seeing a concert at the nearby Cobb Energy Center. This place is not where you would expect. A Korean BBQ that is at a convenience store front located at 2243 Akers Mill Rd SE. We went there for the Spicy Korean BBQ sandwich. OH MY:
This thing is amazing and constructed with pork chopped into cubes, piled onto a potato bun, adding with a good amount of kimchi coleslaw, and lastly a sprinkling of black sesame seeds and a sliced scallion. This is basically what they are known for but their Brisket we had is equal in awesomeness! Atlanta Magazine described these local owners backstory perfectly:
Chef-owners Jiyeon Lee and Cody Taylor met while working at defunct Repast, itself a showplace of next-gen East-meets-West cuisine. Taylor grew up in Texas and Tennessee. Lee recorded hit pop songs in late- eighties Korea, then moved to Georgia in 1999 to attend Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in Tucker. Several years ago, while the two were visiting Korea, they began to experiment with tenderizing brisket in soup made with miso. They wondered how the beef might taste smoked—exceptional, they discovered—and their ideas for cross-cultural barbecue began percolating.
We added a new feature while there (along with the brisket) the Tempura Sweet Potatoes. They are up to par with everything else we have had but, if you love sweet and fried this is your side dish. Fried with a tempura batter and served with their tempura sauce on the side, perfect for dipping. Really, this is north of town. Hit this place first as you move toward the city. Skip The Varsity, go to Heirloom.
2. Buford Highway Farmers Market- As you know, we’ve mentioned before, we are members of the Southern Foodways Alliance and they have discussed the culinary significance of these immigrant owned restaurants in the Buford Highway area. The Must Do for the food lover is a trip to Buford Highway Farmers Market. There were things we’ve never seen in our lives fruit, vegetable, meat and even processed food wise. This is the most amazing local market under what could have been an old box store roof. You move all throughout the world in one visit:
3. El Rey Del Taco- Since you’ll be at Buford Highway Farmers Market give El Rey Del Taco a shot. Probably one of the best places I’ve had tacos in Atlanta but I’ve been proven wrong. If you have another spot let us know. This place is surrounded by Korean joints offering Bubble Tea. Really, Buford Highway is everything that is great about America attracting cultures all over the world to live together.
4. Home grown- We’ve got a consistent must hit in Atlanta. This place is that place. We first went here about three years ago with Chef Josh and Chelsey from Home Cafe and have been addicted since. We’ve bought art, crafts and other weird things in their flea market in the back of the store with an older gentleman jamming on a xylophone and a keyboard. It really is an artsy, big city vibe with Southern offerings in food and a sticker over the register that reads “Love the South Hate The Racists.” It’s true to the Southern Heritage when it comes to from scratch goodness but it also is a mix of every imaginable person. Some people call it “Hipster.” I’d call it what the south is becoming, “welcoming.”
No suggestions for Home Grown. Get what sounds good, because it is. Nothing we’ve had has been below, “WOW!”
5. Things to do other than Eat- If you are going to be a tourist and hit World of Coke (Hate to say it but the old ads alone are worth the visit), Aquarium (Must See), College Football HOF (As a hardcore football fan we say ‘meh’), Civil Rights Museum, Zoo and/or tour of CNN to get the city pass. There are great walking/hiking trails all over the city. Great shopping all over (Try Ponce City Market). Also, October 1st Georgia Tech hosts Miami Hurricanes and Braves end their season with the Detroit Tigers at home. No kids with you? Hit Fox Theater and see Chance The Rapper or Comedian Bill Burr. Our best bet, hit the Clark Atlanta v. Morehouse Game and makes sure to watch the band:
There is so much to do in the city to our south. So many historical places, new places and just crazy places. We just want you to try to hit the local and the culture of Atlanta when you visit. That’s while we will continue to promote the cities we visit on our site because no matter where you are, Buy Local!

Get to Know Our Newest Partner, Ben Hughes, From Bluegrass Beams. Click here to see some of their work. On to the questions:
1. Tell us a little about you as a person.
I’m 29 years old, married (Jenna). I’m originally from London, KY but I have lived in BG for 11 years. I love to fish and travel. Jenna and I collect National Parks.
What prepared me most for running my own business would be 1. My education (Bachelor in Hospitality Management from WKU) and 2. Working in retail management for 4 years after college.
2. What is your earliest memory of your work, what got you interested in it?
I grew up working construction with my dad so I’ve always known how to use tools and build things. My passion for woodworking, however, began while I was still in retail. I built a couple of small things for our house and that turned into a few more things. After that I knew I had to make a career out of it.
3. What is your favorite job you’ve done so far?
My favorite job so far is a house I just finished working in that will be in this year’s Parade of Homes. In this house I made 5 mantles, installed the reclaimed floor, and made 19 custom floor vents.
4. Who are your influences in life and your work?
My work influences are my dad and countless other woodworkers who have come before me. My life influences are my wife, my parents, and a handful of very close friends.
5. If you had to choose a last meal, what would you eat doesn’t have to be local?
My last meal would be a Duck Dog (hotdog) with Fois Gras and Duck Fat Fries from Hot Doug’s in Chicago.
6. How important is local business collaboration to you?
Local business collaboration is vital to me because most of my work comes from area homebuilders.
7. What are three things people should know when they approach you to do a custom job?
I don’t just do rustic, I can and will build any style of furniture. I love building from my own design but if someone wants me to copy something they’ve seen online or in a magazine that’s perfectly fine too. If they’re ordering a mantle, know how wide the chimney is.
8. What other locally owned businesses in town do you enjoy shopping, eating or patronizing?
My 2 most-frequented local businesses are Home Café and The Woodworks.
9. Where is the future of your industry heading to?
I hope the future of commissioned woodwork is going modern. I don’t see the desire for handmade, quality furniture diminishing anytime soon.
10. How hard is it to start a local business and what advice would you give someone who is looking to start one in Southern Kentucky?
If you’re starting a business where you’ll be making things it can be difficult. If you don’t follow some sort of budget your overhead can get out of control when you’re constantly buying new tools. Also, educate yourself on all aspects of taxes and how to stay legal with all necessary licenses.

In November, 2015 a hardwood flooring customer asked Ben Hughes if he knew anyone who builds barn beam fireplace mantles. Two days later he stumbled upon some barn beams, put 2-and-2 together, called her back, and became Southern Kentucky’s premier barn beam mantle builder. That’s just the start of it. We look forward to partnering with this relatively new business to Southern Kentucky and can’t wait for you to check out their work. So, please give a big ‘Welcome’ to our new Buy Local Partner, Bluegrass Beams!

We’re not going to lie, we’ve been to countless Alabama football games. When you have a red headed Father and Grandmother who yell for the Tide and hail from Morgan County, Alabama you are going to attend some games. So, with that said we have split emotions coming for the second weekend of the season. Still, many are going to the Home Opener Thursday and then heading south for the big game. We want to help you pick some local spot that are a must hit!
FAME: Recording Studios & Publishing Co.- Sure, we live near ‘Music City’ but there is another Music Capitol in the South that has birthed more music than any other small town in the world, Muscle Shoals. The city has been famous for decades and has changed the scope of music but it’s also had a great documentary and the FAME studio is a major player. If you head down early Friday make a stop and take a tour. Maybe you can feel the spirit Etta James had singing ‘Tell Mama’ over the sounds of The Swampers.
Big Bob Gibson’s BBQ- Of all the BBQ in the world this is the most emotional for us. It’s actually on the drive down in Decatur, Alabama where we spent our summers running the roads on ATVs and eating massive quantities of BBQ and Homemade pies from this establishment. Sure, Chef Poling of Home Cafe can steer you clear from the White Sauce they are famous for but the star is the BBQ sandwich or the BBQ potato (our Favorite). Also, the BBQ sauces are fantastic and we’re not sauce people on our BBQ. Click here to see all the BBQ awards they’ve won.
Birmingham- This is a city on the rise with people winning awards for food. You have also the civil rights history sites all over the city and even a trip to The Vulcan and the park around it is fun. There is also football royalty buried in Birmingham with Coach Paul Bear Bryant buried in a very modest grave in Elmwood Cemetery. Forget that go to a traditional Southern restaurant, Eagles Restaurant!
It’s only open Sunday- Friday: 10:30am -3:30pm. So, this is not a game day spot. Here is a menu to do research before walking in.
Druid City Brewing- If you love our Buy Local Partner White Squirrel Brewery you’ll dig Druid City Brewing. It’s located at 607 14th St in Tuscaloosa, AL but be warned it’s behind a shopping center. We had to look to find it our first time. We were not disappointed with the atmosphere, the drinks, the music and meeting, Bo Hicks, Owner and Brewmaster of Druid City!
Dreamland or Archibald’s: I don’t know. I get that everyone has heard of Dreamland. We love their Banana Pudding the most. But…. Archibald’s is our legit winner when it comes to Ribs in Tuscaloosa and in Alabama in general. The Southern Foodway Alliance showed why we love it so much:
Paul W. Bryant Museum- We recently went to Atlanta and visited the College Football Hall of Fame, we’ll review soon. It doesn’t touch this museum. Sure it covers all teams but the spirit of College Football and the man it’s named after is alive here. If you are on campus you pay your $1 admission and go see this. It’s a must.
Other than that, walk the quad, see Denny Chimes, maybe grab something at Rammer Jammers or a bar University Blvd. Other than that have fun. Be nice to the locals (they usually are friendly back this week) and enjoy the game. Go Tops and Roll Tide.

The one thing that’s great about shopping with the local Mattress manufacturer (besides that they make the mattress themselves) is that when you enter our doors you won’t find high pressure sales. Bandy Bedding has so many beds to choose from and all types of models. The greatest of things is the two sided bedding that many mattress stores don’t offer anymore. We said “goodbye to body impressions” long ago.
That’s why those classic beds always lasted so long before. You could flip them and that is a form of maintenance just as you rotate your tires on your vehicle! Bandy Bedding also features the traditional innerspring models, pocketed coil models, latex models and memory foam models. They have Adjustable Bed bases and they make custom size bedding as well, whether its for your RV or Antique beds , that’s what they do and they do it well. They make a fine quality product that they are proud to put their Family name on. Family owned and operated is a rare thing now days and we’re happy they are our local store. The Showroom and Factory are located at 401 Emmett Ave in Bowling Green near the Regal 12 Movie Theater.
You can find out more via their website www.bandymattress.com or on theirFacebook Page. They are open Monday through Friday 8am-6pm and Saturday 9am-5pm!

Last fall marked a major milestone where the fraud liability on credit and debit transactions shifts to the merchant for all point of sale devices. To better combat fraud, Southern Kentucky merchants will have more reasons to ensure their point-of-sale capability is ready to accept EMV chip-based credit and debit cards.
Clover Mini redefines the payment terminal accepting all forms of payments with ease including EMV chip cards while providing business owners with an “all-in-one” solution to streamline operations, expand business and customer intelligence, and improve the customer experience, all while facilitating payments in a safe, secure environment. It’s the sleekest, most flexible and secure terminal around. It comes EMV-enabled to accept chip cards, Apple Pay™, Android Pay™, smartphones, mobile devices and magnetic-strip cards so you can protect your customers, business and reputation from fraud.
Give customers the convenience of paying with multiple payment types. Protect their sensitive information – as well as your own – and have the flexibility you’ve always wanted without the hassle of a big business system.
Clover Mini is intuitive and easy to use. Right out of the box, you’ll be able to:
Here what an existing customer has to say: “We used to get really backed up on the weekends with customers trying to check out and pay, but now we don’t have that problem – Clover Mini has made us so much more efficient.” said Ed Bisconti, owner of Borgata Pizza Café in Columbus, OH. “Our customers have even commented that they appreciate how secure it is.”
If you are a local business that is trying to save money on processing or are interesting in the Clover, contact Kentucky CPS. Locally you can contact them at 270-303-4982. Also, through Buy Local Bowling Green Kentucky CPS offers online ordering for restaurants.

From Friends of South Union:
In 1807 the Shakers founded South Union, one of nineteen communal villages the group established in America. Beginning with only a few converts, South Union’s growth rate was a phenomenal journey that eventually amassed a farm of 6,000 acres, saw the construction of over 200 buildings, and produced an economy that brought great financial success. Strict religious principles dictating excellence, simplicity, and order in all things helped create a material culture that was unequaled throughout the 19th century. An adherence to celibacy and communal ownership of property were vital to their quest for Godly living. Financial hardship and dwindling membership by the early 20th century forced the sale of the village in 1922.
Today, the South Union Shaker Village (1807-1922) is well-known nationwide for its exemplary standards of historic preservation and its innovative educational programming. During our non-profit organization’s fifty years of preservation we have grown from a one-room museum to a complex of 19th century Shaker structures, surrounded by 500 acres of the original farm. Restoration and development continue, as does new research into the fascinating history of the Shakers.
We feel strongly about preserving the Shaker legacy in Kentucky and hope that you might want to be a part of it too. Your tax-deductible contribution supports the continued restoration and development of the South Union Shaker Village. We encourage you to visit often and take an active interest in the progress of this historic site. Our Friends are vital to our future.
Student $20 | Individual $40 | Family $50

Kentucky Card Payment Solutions is a locally operated merchant service provider. Many merchants in the local Bowling Green area have moved to this process provider for their local support staff and help they get. No longer waiting on the bank or out of town representative to return their calls, Kentucky CPS clients have been able to get help that day.
Not to mention great rates that help them save money on their processing which helps them to pass that savings to their customers. Need to find out more? Got towww.kentuckycps.com.
We do realize that Card Payment Solutions is a nationwide service but, with no local providers we wanted someone with local service department and sales team. CPS is a leading provider of credit card processing, merchant accounts, and shopping carts for small and medium sized merchants located across the United States. Their payment processing services enable merchants to process both traditional card-present, or “swipe” transactions, as well as “card-not-present” transactions. Their management’s experience and cumulative knowledge in providing payment processing services to merchants give them the ability to effectively identify, evaluate and manage the payment processing needs and risks that are unique to small business.
Locally you can contact them at 270-303-4982.

Our Daily Bowling Green last took us out of Bowling Green as Buy Local Bowling Green Travels segments had to be made. That said, we made it very WKU centric!
We took the 4th off but the 5th saw a Local Dog surveying the area after the annual night of terror!
Wednesday’s Daily Bowling Green is Exit 22, our most popular exit. An exit many pass because they see a ton of box and chain locations. Take the time and give positive reviews to our local restaurants and shops to help encourage travelers to Buy Local!
Flood warnings last Thursday kept our eyes to the sky.
Daily Bowling Green is in Atlanta where we visit the WKU feature at the College Football Hall of Fame. Audio is a bit funky.

There is something glorious about finding a local gem when on vacation. That’s part of our love of travel and our wish to share our stories from the road. Who knew that we’d find love in the heart of Orlando’s Milk District at ‘Se7en bites.’ Self described as ‘a sweet and savory bakeshop specializing in nostalgic southern comfort foods, with a modern twist’ it lived up to the billing and not to mention a pretty tasty cup of iced coffee. Once a pasture filled with T.G. Lee Dairy’s grazing cows, the milk district is now filled with great local shops, food and a favorite Colonial Lanes.
But, we’re here to talk about Se7en Bites! First off, finding the sign that says Se7en Bites is not necessary with this waiting for you:
This beautiful mural of a lady holding a tasty pie is the sign you’ve made it. Also, you can tell we added a photo of the goodies waiting inside. First thing to know at peak times this place is packed and be prepared to share a table with strangers. It’s O.K. because the people of Central Florida are lovely and it’s often in these times you find the next gem.
Again, as we said with the Sofrito Latin Cafe review we needed a kid friendly place. Well, we found the perfect brunch meal for a 7 year old:
This too cute glass of milk and Apricot Scone was excellent and baked perfectly. The coffee is excellent but this is not a coffee shop. This is a bake shop that does great coffee. The baker and her staff are top shelf and deserve every award and accolade. this scone was perfect bliss on a Saturday morning. Now the wife and I tried this:
The Southern on top and Farmhouse on bottom from Se7en bites are wonderful. That iced coffee is brilliant. Now, one of their signature dishes is the Southern Morning Biscuit and it’s made with buttermilk garlic biscuit, baked egg in ham,pimento cheese, apple-wood smoked bacon, smothered in cheddar chive grits. The Farmhouse had the best ciabatta bread I’ve ever tasted and it’s freshly made sausage with local egg. I think there was a nice fried tomato that I sort of ignored because of the prior ingredients. We were stuff and couldn’t try anything in the bakery display:
Some other great breakfast grabs (which this place is not only breakfast since it’s open for lunch) that I heard oohs and aahs over were things like the 7th Trimester,egg, bacon, cheese, mac & cheese all piled on a biscuit (Photo via @orlandogastronomy on Instagram):
Via @se7enbites on Instagram they feature “Don’t Fudge With Me” made with Chocolate Chip Cookie, Brownie,Chocolate Marshmallow Fudge ,Raw Cookie Dough:
We tend to try places and they end up not living up to the local hype. THIS IS NOT THE CASE! We have a trip to Central Florida in October and this is already on the “must hit” list. Honestly, if carbs, sweets and southern food aren’t your thing you won’t like this. For the 95% other people who follow me, you need to make a trip to Central Florida. Find them on Facebook and Instagram!

The Daily Bowling Green for The Last Week of June 2016. #DailyBG
The storm rolls into Bowling Green Kentucky. Daily Bowling Green for June 27th, 2016.
A visit to Jackson’s Orchard in Bowling Green, Kentucky is our Daily Bowling Green June 28th, 2016
White Squirrel of WKU is the Daily Bowling Green for June 30th, 2016!
We visit the Childhood home of John Carpenter on the 30th anniversary of ‘Big Trouble In Little China.’

A visit to Jackson’s Orchard is always a treat. From the moment you turn off 185 and onto to Slim Island road you can almost taste the Apple Cider Slush. You end up at the sign that has greeted so many, not just during this peach season, through the years.
The drive up the hill is steep but it’s beautiful as the trees block the sun in a perfect tunnel to those piles of apples and peaches. Honestly, this would be worth the trip for me because in my younger days living in Northeastern Kentucky we would drive Paris Pike into Lexington and this brings the nostalgia of the trees shading the road of that iconic road.
The Jackson family has offered good food and great memories to visitors for 50 years now. The originals of the local farming and food movement the Jackson’s have a special place in our heart. As they may not be partners of Buy Local Bowling Green but they are an inspiration and, to be honest, have been encouraging our local community to Buy Local for half a century. That’s why we had to take a walk around this week for our newest feature via our Youtube channel called “Daily Bowling Green.” Which will just follow us on our adventures:
We encourage so many of you to go out right now because it’s a great time to grab the kids and play on their play center that so many school children delight no matter if it’s now in Peach season or in Pumpkin season during the Fall festival. Not to mention, PEACHES!

We’re not stationary people living in a bubble. We from time to time like to get out, see the country and take in what other local communities are doing. Often times we head to Central Florida, Orlando to be specific. With a kid in tow we are very conscience of where we need to eat. It needs to be somewhere a soon to be second grader would enjoy. We were visiting the land of mouse and instead of eating park food or hotel cafeteria we headed away from the resort to find “LOCAL” and since it’s Florida with a latin flare.
We hit the jackpot with a good sized cafe about the size of Buckhead here in Bowling Green called, Sofrito Latin Cafe’.
This is the front and it’s located 8607 Palm Parkway. The best way to describe it is when Leaving the Disney Springs Area North hang a left S. Apopka Vineland Road and it’s the next right and you are there. It’s pretty easy to find with GPS. First off it’s a beautiful space and concept and very clean:
The wall to your left has family games and reading material but, let’s get to eating.
We grabbed a menu and sat in a booth since someone said they would come and grab our order. Here is what is on the menu:
I ordered one of the best Cuban sandwiches I’ve ever had. It consisted of Ham, house-made roast pork, Swiss cheese, house made pickles and mustard on Cuban bread. A very simple sandwich but great tasting:
My wife ordered a tasty Cachapa. Cachapa is traditional Venezuelan sweet corn pancake filled with a generous portion of Queso de Mano (Handmade white soft cheese), and topped with crema. We added Shredded Beef. It was good, not as good as the Cuban in my opinion but good:
My daughter ordered (didn’t finish it because it was huge so I got to taste quite a bit of this) the Pabellon. Pabellon is Venezuela’s national dish. Seasoned shredded beef, white rice, black beans (we subbed a salad for the beans) & sweet plantains.
This was a very good steak and the rice was cooked well but, and I say but…. I wish I had a full plate of those sweet plantains. So good and worth coming back to this restaurant for.
For dessert we tried Vanilla Flan ‘Egg custard enhanced with vanilla’ (they were sold out of coconut and usually sell out early), Nutella Empanada ‘Fried round pastry stuffed with Nutella, dusted with a touch of powdered sugar’ and Tres Leches ‘Pound cake soaked in three milks, topped with whipped cream.’
This was good. Not great but it is what it is.
Again, this was ok. Not my favorite. I think my judgement on their desserts would be different if they had Coconut Flan and I didn’t order the Empanada. Honestly, for dessert just order a plate of Plantains. After the meal we made Bowling Green’s mark on Sofrito with a Purple happy face on their world map:
The other great thing about this restaurant is the staff. They worked hard to make sure we were taken care of and were pleasant to speak with about the area and other places we needed to try. Also, the restaurant is doing a great job with Social Media and has created the hashtag #LoveSofrito which give you great photos click here to see. You can find them on Facebook, Instagram and on their website www.sofritocafe.com. We hoped you enjoyed this and will try out Sofrito. We will be doing these reviews of Local stops for Buy Local Bowling Green Travels or #BuyLocalBGTravels because as much as we love shopping local, we love to travel.

The Daily Bowling Green for The Week of June 20th 2016.
A walk inside the Greenhouse at Three Lions Garden Center is our Daily Bowling Green for Monday, June 20th, 2016! Hope you enjoy.
Took a 5 minute walk around our favorite wetland at Lost River Cave for The Daily Bowling Green. Bull Frogs chirping, ducks swimming and sunny day (for now).
Enjoyed a morning watching the Barren River at the boat launch. Used during the Civil War by both sides, this place is amazing by nature and by history. Full video on Facebook and our Youtube channel.
“When I arrived in Bowling Green over a decade ago to work with Scooter Davis it was undeniable how loved Scooter Davis was by this community. I know this because when he took me to Gregory Lee’s to sit and get to know each other he spent more time talking to fans. He worked the room like no other. He was as nice in person as he was on the air. He had time for every single one of his fans and truly cared about each person in this community. I remember talking to him for hours about trains, our family roots in Baskersfield, California and fun stories about a mutual friend we had from our radio background. He just had a way about connecting with everyone. He had some great stories that I can’t share here but the man had a wicked sense of humor. When I went out on my own he was the first person to call me when I started Buy Local Bowling Green and the first person to do a video promoting our community. He didn’t have to do that. It’s a sad day in Kentucky because we lost a legend. I’m sad for the loss for his family, friends and fans. I hope he can now rest in peace with no pain from his illness.”

Most everyone seems to agree that vinyl replacement windows create a wonderful addition to any home. However, they tend to be rather expensive. Aluminum storm windows offer a lower-cost alternative to replacement windows and provide some of the same benefits.
In some historic neighborhoods, adding a storm window to the existing wood window may be the only option for homeowners who want to make their windows more energy efficient.
Adding an aluminum storm window to a single-pane wooden window will nearly double its energy efficiency! Though not as efficient as a replacement window, this is still a dramatic improvement. Contrary to what many may think, aluminum storm windows often improve the appearance of your home by adding a clean new look. Storm windows are available in a variety of colors and styles to match your home and will also help preserve your existing wooden windows, helping them last longer.

One of the more beloved restaurants in Bowling Green is Home Cafe and Marketplace. If you follow our instagram or snapchat you probably see us snapping photos of the plate. The reason those plates look so good is because of the love and care each menu item has in it from the two Owners of this restaurant, Chelsey and her husband, Josh Poling.
Over 70% of our readers are women but less than half of Kentucky owned business are owned by women. So, we’re going to talk with business owners to help promote and support local women-owned Stores, Practices and Companies. We start with this interview we did with Chelsey Poling:
BLBG: Give us a little background, who are you? Where do you come from and what affect did it have on choosing your profession?
CP: My name is Chelsey Poling, owner of Home Cafe and Marketplace. I am originally from Santa Barbara, California, but my family has lived in the heart of bourbon country, Lawrenceburg, Kentucky since I was in second grade. My grandmother owned a restaurant when I was in high school and that is what really got me started thinking that I wanted a career in cooking.
BLBG: What is your favorite memory of cooking outside the restaurant (growing up or recent)? What about your favorite memory of being a professional chef?
CP: One of my favorite memories is learning to make banana bread from my mom. I started out just watching her do it and then I slowly was given parts that I could help with. It started with just mashing the bananas, then I learned how to measure the ingredients for her. Eventually I was allowed to do it all while she watched. As a kid I was so proud of the day I could do it all from start to finish without her help or guidance. One of my favorite memories from my professional career is Oktoberfest. Every year it is more and more fun! There is something about the chaos and confusion and everyone working together all day that is so awesome. The event is something we are very proud of and look forward to every September.
BLBG: Home Cafe has taken a twist on many dishes, what style of cuisine is your favorite and what is your perfect meal?
CP: My favorite style of cuisine to cook is definitely Mexican! Being from southern California a lot of the family meals I remember having as a kid involved either going out for Mexican food or my mom and grandma cooking some form of it. My perfect meal has to include tortillas! Recently I visited my mom for not even 24 hours and she cooked all of my favorite things, homemade taquitos, green chili enchiladas and cheese stuff (this is the PG version of what we call it, it is a cheese and green chili casserole), and no bake cookies. It was the most soul satisfying meal I have had in a long time.
BLBG: Who are your influences in life and cooking?
CP: One of my biggest influences in life and in cooking is my husband Josh. No matter what we are doing or cooking he makes sure it is the best version of it. Sometimes when he doesn’t know how to make something he spends weeks reading everything he can find about it. He is also incredibly passionate. Anyone who knows him can tell you that Josh can talk for days about 3 things…food, college football (mainly West Virginia), and professional wrestling. Some of my celebrity influences are Emeril, Rick Bayless, and Michael Symon.
BLBG: Being a business owner is scary to many people. You had a dream and you took the leap, what is your advice to young women wanting to own their own business?
CP: Being a business owner is terrifying! My advice to any young women that want to start their own business is to research and learn everything you can about what you are passionate about. Also I suggest going into business doing something you are very passionate about, because you will be around it all day everyday. I would also suggest that you surround yourself with people who are equally passionate in what they are good at. You won’t be able to do everything, believe me I have tried, so having people around that know how to do things you don’t is incredibly helpful.
BLBG: What is the one thing you would suggest learning before opening a business you wish you had taken more time to learn about?
CP: One thing I wish I would have learned more about before opening Home Cafe is how to do more of the paperwork and business side of things. Thankfully Josh and his dad are good at those things.
BLBG: What has been your favorite of Bowling Green’s local ingredients you have used?
CP: Right now my favorite local ingredient is asparagus. Every year when it comes in I think I eat more than we sell, but it is just so delicious. I am also a big fan of watermelon when it is in season. I have a major sweet tooth and the watermelons we can get here in Bowling Green hit the spot everytime.
BLBG: Home is known so much for their specials. What is your favorite menu item currently?
CP: My favorite menu item right now is the smoked pastrami reuben. I had actually never had a reuben until this version came on the menu, but now I can’t get enough. Sometimes on Saturday mornings I even eat it for breakfast. We make the pastrami, the sauerkraut and the 1000 island dressing. It doesn’t get any better!
BLBG: You and your husband and fellow chef Josh Poling are avid travelers. Where is your favorite place to travel? What city in your travels had the best food?
CP: Everyone that knows me knows that my favorite place to travel is to Disney, but the food there is just short of awful. My favorite food place to visit is either Texas or Atlanta, Georgia. I LOVE all things mexican food as well as all things bbq’d so Texas is perfect for me. Atlanta has some spectacular restaurants. My favorites are Gunshow, Woodfire Grill and Homegrown. I also love when we drive to Atlanta because we get to stop at The Cheesesteak Factory. It is one of the best cheesesteaks I have ever had, it just happens to be inside a gas station.
BLBG: What do you see in the future for Home Cafe and Marketplace the next 5 years?
CP: The goal for Home Cafe over the next 5 years is to use more local ingredients and hopefully to continue to change and evolve to what we feel Bowling Green needs. We never want people to get tired of us and right now I feel like we are doing a good job of coming up with new and exciting things. If we can continue down that path I will be very happy.
We hope you will go support this female owned and fantastic restaurant located here in Bowling Green. We also want to hear from you about other female owned businesses in Southern Kentucky. If you are interested in keeping updated with what they have planned ahead fan them on facebook, or keep tuned in here!

Every day for the past few months, you’ve been asking us about our new neighbor near the baseball park. What do we think about the new Starbucks? Are we worried? Upset? Planning massive discounts or some other competitive gambit? We’ve mostly brushed off these questions, but not because we haven’t thought through them. The truth is, it’s complicated.
On one hand, the recent surge of interest indowntown Bowling Green is definitely a good thing. We’ve been here for 15 years now, and have seen a massive change in foot traffic and overall vitality. (In fact, we’d like to think we’ve played some small part in that.) More businesses should, in theory, bring more potential customers for everyone; a “big name” business showing up downtown gives an air of importance, an indication that Bowling Green has arrived.
But, of course, that’s the thing: At Spencer’s, we haven’t “arrived,” because we’ve already been here. Building our business slowly and surely, without the benefit of tax incentives or wealthy investors who live in other locales. Forging relationships with the faculty, staff and students of WKU — which, in partnership with Aramark, is the actual owner-operator of the new Starbucks. Pressing forward as our city and county officials (with the best of intentions) were turning their eyes from Fountain Square, working to shift the cultural hub of downtown Bowling Green a couple blocks east.
Again: It’s complicated. But at the end of the day, what we *will* say is this: We love Bowling Green, and we love serving the people of this community. We’re confident in the quality of our products, the graciousness of our service, the unique atmosphere of our 200-year-old space — and we’re constantly working to improve on all of the above. Competition will only help us in that regard, driving us to better evaluate our service and our standards. And despite the fact that Spencer’s and Starbucks are both centered on coffee and offer free wi-fi, our business models and driving visions are actually quite distinct from one another.
We’re friends with some of the people involved at Stadium Park Plaza; we’re privileged to count many of them as customers. And we honestly, genuinely hope the whole project succeeds — for the good of downtown Bowling Green, and for the good of our community. But no matter what happens, with this project or any other down the road, know that we’ll still be here — right where we were, right where we want to be, welcoming the lovely people of the lovely city we call home.

In cooperation with the Bowling Green League of Bicyclists (BGLOB), the South Union Shaker Village will host a bike ride through the beautiful countryside, much of what was originally the Shaker’s 6,000 acre farm. Special premiums and options for the day’s event will be offered upon registration. For more information about the ride, view route maps and registration visit: www.meetup.com.
The bike ride is sponsored by Logan Aluminum.
There will be three marked routes of 10, 28, and 50 miles, all of which will start and end at the museum. Registration opens at 7 AM. There will be a ride leader/sweeper and SAGs (food stops) on each route. Each rider is required to wear a helmet and sign a waiver.
As a fundraiser for SUSV, we ask that you make a tax-deductible donation of $25 for non-BGLOB members and $15 for BGLOB members. Any other donations are greatly appreciated by SUSV.
Commemorative t shirts will be available for $20. All proceeds will go to South Union Shaker Village. To order a T-shirt or register for the ride call SUSV at (270) 542-4167.

The one thing we noticed when we started this project of promoting local businesses was the amount of local businesses hire local people to their small business. One of our partners is Grinstead’s flooring a furnishing and they hire exclusively local workers to our region. With 2 sales representatives (plus Owner, Gary Grinstead) who are from Warren County and at any time three crews of two that do their installs the staff is comprised of neighbors who want to help make Bowling Green beautiful, one home at a time. So when you shop at Grinstead’s you know that most of the dollars you spend not only go back in local taxes but, that they are going to pay for the hard work of local workers and salespeople.
With this local staff at Grinstead’s you receive the customer service that is all but a memory in many of the big out of town box stores. You get people who make it a point to know your needs and wants and to try to achieve those needs an wants. It’s not rare to see a Grinstead’s sales representative arriving to a home to measure the job and to bring samples to their home so they can see what the flooring will look like in that person’s home.
Grinstead’s sales reps help you guide through this very important process because they know how important it is to get the job done right the first time. Same goes for the install crew. Many of these crews have been working with Gary at Grinstead’s for years. Gary has made it his mission to be well versed in the latest in the industry and to have a crew that is well prepared to take you from step one to finish of the project.
Please be sure to check out Grinstead’s Flooring and Furnishings online or at their store located at 1353 Old Louisville Road. If you’d like to Gary or one of the helpful staff at Grinstead’s they can be reached in Bowling Green at 270.843.1072.

Your child’s baby teeth are at risk for decay as soon as they first appear—which is typically around age 6 months. Tooth decay in infants and toddlers is often referred to as Baby Bottle Tooth Decay. It most often occurs in the upper front teeth, but other teeth may also be affected. In some cases, infants and toddlers experience decay so severe that their teeth cannot be saved and need to be removed.
The good news is that tooth decay is preventable! Most children have a full set of 20 baby teeth by the time they are 3-years-old. As your child grows, their jaws also grow, making room for their permanent teeth.
Cleaning Your Child’s Teeth

Friday we decided to celebrate Mother’s Day early with a family dinner at what will invariably become Bowling Green’s favorite Seafood place. The way the community has embraced this restaurant before it even opened it’s doors (we know many had tried the food truck but it’s still impressive) was mind blowing. The great thing is with the help of local business Rustic Nail this space is BEAUTIFUL. I am really happy to see what they did ambiance alone for the restaurant scene. The line was already out the door at 4:30pm on a Friday and there was already a full bar of patrons shooting big fish stories underneath a big fish:
Our server was a lovely young woman and very attentive and the place had a great vibe in a very open and the outside sunshine was excellent falling inside the restaurant. Who cares about all of that, you want to know about the food. Everyone in our party of 9 had some form of seafood but I will only speak on what I ate. First off was The Gumbo:
The Loaded Gumbo is described as “A traditional gumbo loaded with Chicken, Andouille Sausage, Shrimp & Crab Meat.” We scarfed this down as we were pretty hungry but we could taste all the expected flavors except the crab meat. I would get this again as a meal itself. There is something to be said about great Gumbo. During the fall this will be a pretty typical lunch for me.
My wife and I split the entrees but first let’s start with her order of Shrimp and Grits:
Described on the menu as “Charleston Shrimp and Grits- Spicy Tasso Ham Cream Gravy Over White Cheddar Cheese Grits, Loaded with Shrimp.” I think this description will scare some of the people who eat out in Bowling Green. An older gentleman asked me as I was leaving if the Shrimp and Grits were “HOT.” This is absolutely not a spicy dish. So, feel secure in ordering this if you are afraid of spice. Also, don’t judge this version of shrimp and grits to Hominy Grill if you’ve been to Charleston. This is probably one of the best versions I’ve tasted away from the Low Country.
Now, what I ordered is absolutely spicy and my favorite thing I ate. I will go back just for this:
The Low Country Boil as described by the menu “Frogmore Stew (AKA Low Country Boil)-Shrimp, Smoked Sausage, Yellow Onion & Red Potatoes steamed to perfection.” Now, remember what I said about spicy or hot with Shrimp & Grits? Well, these will burn up the less heat tolerant eaters. It was perfect for me. The Sausage was plentiful and shrimp abundant in this perfect mix. The onions and potatoes were cooked exactly as I like them. If you can handle the seasoning then you’re going to love this. Steamers nailed it on this simple and wonderful entree.
Here’s the full menu:
Today is National Shrimp Day and Steamers started serving lunch over the weekend but, not during the week. Go hit up the restaurant for dinner tonight and tell us what you think of the newest kid on Southern Kentucky’s culinary block.

We went and tried Mary Jane’s Chocolate in their new location on College Street. Check out what we purchased:
So, we got their pretty late because we had eaten at Steamer’s (More on that tomorrow). We rushed in since they close at 6pm on Friday Night. The thing is we were most excited for the Chocolate Covered Bacon and the Belgian Dark Chocolate. The Belgian Dark Chocolate was fine but not the favorite. In fact we hoped it would be the favorite and it was probably the least favorite of the three.
The Chocolate Bacon was good. It left the typical after taste of bacon but again, not the show stopper. What really shocked us was the 7 year old’s choice of Milk Chocolate Breakaway Bark. Oh man, this is a must get if you visit. Don’t get fancy with Bacon and Belgian Chocolate. Go for the tried and true Milk Chocolate. We’re happy to see another Chocolate shop (Cocomo Confections & Deli on Nashville Road also has fantastic chocolate and Amazing deals on great Ice Cream Sundaes and is open till 9pm Monday-Saturday and Closed Sunday) reopen and this one servicing downtown. Instead of buying box store you need to try both of these locally owned businesses out.

Imagine what it would be like if you suddenly lost one or two of your front teeth. Smiling, talking, eating—everything would suddenly be affected. Knowing how to prevent injuries to your mouth and face is especially important if you participate in organized sports or other recreational activities this summer.
Mouthguards, also called mouth protectors, help cushion a blow to the face, minimizing the risk of broken teeth and injuries to your lips, tongue, face or jaw. They typically cover the upper teeth and are a great way to protect the soft tissues of your tongue, lips and cheek lining.
When it comes to protecting your mouth, a mouthguard is an essential piece of athletic gear that should be part of your standard equipment from an early age. While collision and contact sports, such as boxing, are higher-risk sports for the mouth, any athlete may experience a dental injury in non-contact activities too, such as gymnastics and skating.
The best mouthguard is one that has been custom made for your mouth by Destiny Dental. However, if you can’t afford a custom-made mouthguard, you should still wear a stock mouthguard or a boil-and-bite mouthguard from the drugstore. Learn more about each option:
A properly fitted mouthguard may be especially important for people who wear braces or have fixed bridge work. A blow to the face could damage the brackets or other fixed orthodontic appliances. A mouthguard also provides a barrier between the braces and your cheek or lips, which will help you avoid injuries to your gums and cheeks.
Talk to Destiny Dental about selecting a mouthguard that will provide the right protection. Although some mouthguards only cover the upper teeth, Dr. Davis or Dr. Robertson may suggest that you use a mouthguard on the lower teeth if you have braces on these teeth.
If you have a retainer or other removable appliance, do not wear it during any contact sports.
Asking Destiny Dental when is the right time to replace your mouthguard is a smart move, but replace it immediately if it shows sign of wear, is damaged or ill fitting. Teens and children may need to replace their mouthguards more often because their mouths are still growing and changing.
Call Destiny Dental for more questions about Dental Health or to see if you a can schedule an appointment for consultation on mouth guards and other dental issues that may arise. They are located at 1720 Destiny Lane and can be reached by phone at 842-3554. Don’t forget to fan them on facebook.

One of the easiest ways to keep your vehicle safe — and to save money at the same time! — is to not neglect your brakes. Putting off brake repairs can be costly and dangerous. So what are some signs that your brakes need to be serviced?
The usual cause of your vehicle pulling to one side or another is contamination on the braking surface or a malfunctioning caliper. It could also be caused by different tire sizes on the right and left wheels. Worn suspension components can also cause this symptom.If you have any of these issues with your brakes or just feel like it has been awhile since your brakes have been checked or serviced come into your local Best-One® and one of our trained technicians will be happy to help you. Just visit S&R Tire Center on Lovers Lane. So, feel safe knowing S&R Tire is working hard with other local tire dealers to get you the best price possible and keeping that service you’ve come to love.Just call S&R Tire, located at 1101 Lovers Lane, 270.781.8828

All diabetic patients should keep up to date on their healthcare visits to assess diabetic retinopathy and neuropathy. At home, you can check your feet daily for cuts, sores, blisters, redness, or other problems. Report any problems to your primary physician. Also, have your eyes checked every year to assess any changes in vision that may occur. It is also important for you to monitor your blood glucose to determine how your diabetes managment plan is working. You should also record these numbers in a diary and take them to your next physician appointment to allow for the best possible care.
There is so much to learn about them and we’ll cover them more later. If you want to learn more now go to their facebook page. Also fan them here.

From Michelle at Beet Box Produce:
I am super excited to announce some great new things coming to Beet Box over the next few weeks!! We will be introducing Beet Box Kitchen and Beet Box Bundles starting next week. Beet Box Kitchen will offer some prefix meal options to add to your box each week starting with a soup and salad of the week. We will also have some other bread options for you as well as weekly specials. With the Beet Box Bundles you will have everything you need to fix a healthy meal at home. We will change these up but will be starting with a Taco Bundle and a Pizza Bundle. Each bundle will include everything you need. This was the idea of one of our customers in Glasgow and we loved it!! The great thing about both the Bundles and the Kitchen is that we will be using our great organic produce and have reached out to other great suppliers for healthier options to fill the bundles.
Starting sometime in April we will add a box that is nothing but prefixed meals as well as an All Veggie box. We have had many requests for both of these things.
Speaking of suppliers we are adding another egg supplier and I am thrilled. We will start to utilize both suppliers so when we hit those times of year when production goes down we have enough to keep everyone going. One thing you may notice with the new supplier is a variety of egg colors but they are still rich and creamy.
1. Sign up!! Choose what size box you would like delivered to your home or office weekly or bi-weekly.
2. Set your account preferences. Tell us what you like and dislike and we will do our best to plan your box accordingly.
3. Each week you will receive an email from us on Friday with the menu for the next week. Log onto your account and make changes and additions till your heart’s content and the box is just how you like it. Just make sure you have it finished byNoon on Sunday’s.
4. Anxiously anticipate the delivery of your box…………..
5. Each week set your box out and we will replace it with a box full of healthy delicious fruits and veggies. (Initially we will be using boxes that we will recycle but as we grow we will switch over to reusable boxes. Because of this we want you to get in the habit of putting your box out for us to pick back up. (Don’t worry if you forget one week we will get it the next time around!)
6. Enjoy your great food and let us take care of the rest!!
7. Don’t forget to check out our recipe page to find some delicious ways to use the contents of your box!!

It seems like gas prices are increasing every day, and everyone is trying to find ways to maximize their gas mileage. Some people overlook one of the most obvious ways to save money when it comes to optimizing gas mileage: your tires!
There are several ways that your tires affect your vehicle’s gas mileage. The most basic is your tire pressure — check it regularly and make sure you fill your tires to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Recommendations can be found inside the doorframe on the drivers side of your vehicle. Studies show you can improve your gas mileage by 3.3% just by making sure your tires are inflated properly! Under inflated tires can cut your gas mileage by 6%. [1]
Additionally, make sure your vehicle is properly aligned. Poor wheel alignment can reduce your gas mileage by up to 10%. [2] Participating Best-One dealers will check your alignment for free to give you peace of mind. Lastly, worn-out tires will cause your vehicle to operate less efficiently as well.
Fuel-efficient tires are an excellent fuel-saving option and help offer confident wet and dry traction. Over the life of each set of fuel-efficient tires, thousands of miles worth of gas are saved due to a low rolling resistance. An example of these tires is the Bridgestone Ecopia. Some of these fuel efficient tires can save you as much as 25% of the original cost of the tires. (See store for details).
Just by taking a few extra minutes out of your day every week or so could save you at the gas pump. Not sure if your tires are wearing or inflated properly? Just visit S&R Tire Center on Lovers Lane. So, feel safe knowing S&R Tire is working hard with other local tire dealers to get you the best price possible and keeping that service you’ve come to love.Just call S&R Tire, located at 1101 Lovers Lane, 270.781.8828

Most everyone seems to agree that vinyl replacement windows create a wonderful addition to any home. However, they tend to be rather expensive. Aluminum storm windows offer a lower-cost alternative to replacement windows and provide some of the same benefits.
In some historic neighborhoods, adding a storm window to the existing wood window may be the only option for homeowners who want to make their windows more energy efficient.
Adding an aluminum storm window to a single-pane wooden window will nearly double its energy efficiency! Though not as efficient as a replacement window, this is still a dramatic improvement. Contrary to what many may think, aluminum storm windows often improve the appearance of your home by adding a clean new look. Storm windows are available in a variety of colors and styles to match your home and will also help preserve your existing wooden windows, helping them last longer.

When it comes to entry doors, your options are nearly endless. These doors are available in hinged insulated steel, hinged fiberglass or vinyl sliding models. With multiple door suppliers, several handle set options, dozens of glass styles, hundreds of color combinations and still more available extras, your door really will be one in a million. At Capitol Window and Door, you won’t be limited to choose from a few off-the-shelf options; we will order a custom-built door per your specifications. Whether you want a plain white door with no glass or an elaborate full-glass door with aged bronze caming and stained glass, we have options to meet your needs.
The first major decision that needs to be made is determining what type of door you want. We order our doors from two companies: ProviaTM Door and ThermaTru. ThermaTru doors offer you good quality at an inexpensive price. These doors are of a higher quality than typical ones seen in most homes or home stores. Most off-the-shelf doors are known as builder grade. They are mass produced in one or two sizes and very limited in style. Our doors, however, are available in a wide variety of sizes and glass styles. ThermaTru doors are available in 13 painted colors and seven stained finishes.
ProviaTM Door’s line of professional-class doors brings a level of quality and craftsmanship unknown to most. Doors of this quality are only available from select distributors such as Capitol Window and Door. These doors will come prefinished from the factory in the color(s) or stain(s) of your choice. They come in a wide variety of glass shapes, glass styles and handle set options. They also come standard with aluminum jamb cladding on your exterior wood so they will not rot and, with proper cleaning, will never need painting.
ProviaTM doors are available in fiberglass as well as 20- or 22-gauge steel. Twenty gauge- steel is 71 percent thicker than the typical 26-gauge steel doors. This means you have a much stronger, much heavier door that with proper care, should last a lifetime. Please visit Provia’s website at www.proviadoor.com to learn more.
Capitol Window and Door is located at 202 State Street in downtown Bowling Green. Call 842-9421 to get your free in-home estimate today or check them out online at http://www.capitolwindowanddoor.com or check them out on facebook.

Salted Fudge Brownies By Vivian Bennett (adapted from Food & Wine/Kate Krader)
“They are a fudgey, sweet-salty brownie. The sea salt is recommended because it is less harsh and melts so nicely into the batter, accentuating the chocolatey sweetness. I cut them into little hearts for a sweet Valentines Day surprise.”

Got a single-serve machine for Christmas? You may not realize how much you’re paying for those little cups. This is an average priced package, found locally at Target, of 16 K-Cups. Do the math, and you’ll see you’re paying $32 per pound for this coffee (which, by the way, was likely roasted up to a year ago, then ground up and put into a non-recyclable cup). For literally half the price, you can get beans that are less than three weeks old — not to mention roasted just right and ethically sourced — and save the rest of your hard-earned money for something else.
Want to know more about buying and brewing great coffee? It’s cheaper, and easier, than you think. Just ask Spencer’s owner Justin Shepherd how to make coffee the frugal way. No reason you can’t have high quality coffee and continue brewing fabulous coffee at home.

Your child’s baby teeth are at risk for decay as soon as they first appear—which is typically around age 6 months. Tooth decay in infants and toddlers is often referred to as Baby Bottle Tooth Decay. It most often occurs in the upper front teeth, but other teeth may also be affected. In some cases, infants and toddlers experience decay so severe that their teeth cannot be saved and need to be removed.
The good news is that tooth decay is preventable! Most children have a full set of 20 baby teeth by the time they are 3-years-old. As your child grows, their jaws also grow, making room for their permanent teeth.
Cleaning Your Child’s Teeth

As you consider home improvements, it is crucial to evaluate the cost of each improvement in relation to how much value it adds to your home. After all, if you spend more than you get back when it’s time to sell – or if the improvement detracts from your home’s value – the investment is likely not one you want to make. To this end, each year Remodeling magazine publishes a research report that analyzes the current cost versus value of the most popular home improvements.
Cost Versus Value
Which improvement ranked as the most valuable project in 2015? According to this year’s“Cost vs. Value Report,” it’s replacing your front door with a steel entry door. Nationally, a steel door upgrade recoups an estimated 101.8% of the price tag on average. Not only will you recover your investment, you might even make a small profit for your effort! Fiberglass replacement doors are seeing a rise in return on investment due to their low maintenance and durability. The report also reveals that upgrading exterior components, such as siding, doors and windows, generally yielded better financial returns than larger projects, such as a bathroom or bedroom addition.
A Range of Benefits
Most homes use the front door as the focal point, which means this area helps to create the first and last impression of curb appeal. When you compare this improvement to other, more expensive upgrades designed to enhance curb appeal, there’s no more cost-effective solution than replacing an entry door. Quality replacement doors are also made from materials that improve efficiency and contribute to reduced utility bills for as long as you live in the home. These and other reasons are why replacement doors ranked so high on the “Cost vs. Value Report.”

Perhaps one of the most nerve racking things to happen while driving, other than an accident, is a tire blowout. There are a few “to do” and “not do” items that will help you stay calm and maneuver your vehicle to safety.
Let’s start with the two things you should NOT do during a tire blowout:
Now that you know what not to do let’s focus on the three things you SHOULD do in case of a blowout:
These do’s and don’ts apply for both front and back tire blowouts. The only difference between the two is what you feel in the vehicle; for a front blowout you will feel it more in your vehicle’s steering, in a rear blowout you will feel in more in the seat and body of the vehicle.
Knowing the right way to handle a blow-out will help keep you safe on the roads. Stay safe and contact your local Best-One® with any questions you might have.
So, feel safe knowing S&R Tire is working hard with other local tire dealers to get you the best price possible and keeping that service you’ve come to love.Just call S&R Tire, located at 1101 Lovers Lane, 270.781.8828
