Milburns Orchards Fall Events

See how much fun Baby G had last year on the Hay Ride!!!

This weekend starts Milburns Orchards Fall Festivities.  Check out thier website here, they have so much going on.  This particular weekend is Grandparents Weekend and all Grandparents and thier Grandchildren are admitted in free. 

Here is more information on thier Fall Festival Weekends.

Slow day here....

So Baby G hasn't been feeling her normal self the last few days, so that has been my priority over my dear blog, but here are a few things I've noticed going on around town...

1.  Martins (in my opinion) is having a slow week, however, my friend Allison discovered that they have a deal where if you buy any Rotisserie Chicken, you can get a Giant Mashed Potatoes and a 2 liter of Coke for FREE.  Not bad it you are in a rut and can't figure out what to make for dinner.  Now all you need is some veggies or something. 

2.  Also at Martins, make sure you get your coupons from the coupon machine.  This week the coupons are:

• Save .50 on your next purchase of $7 or more from our deli department (NOT HARD TO DO)
• Save .50 on your next purchase of $6 or more from our floral department
• Save .50 on your next purchase of any greeting card (pick up a .99 cent card, then it's only .49cents)
• Save .50 on your next purchase of $6 or more from our produce department (That's a good Coupon)

3.  The Elkton Fall Festival is going on this Friday and Saturday in Elkton.  Click here for more information.  It looks like most of the entertainment is going on Saturday.

4.  Do you ship things often?  Use Priority Mail (it is fits what your shipping) and pay for postage online.  Did you know you can save .50 on shipping if you pay for it online.  Plus, the mail man will pick it up for you from your front porch.  Just a thought.  I know .50 isn't all that much, but if you have kids, going to the post office isn't that easy sometimes.  DRIVE THRU POST OFFICE - sounds like a fabulous idea.

5.  Here are some new Blockbuster Express Codes good through September 18th.  Love free movies.

Baby G, Feeling Better last weekend at the Brandywine Zoo



Charlestown Riverfest this weekend

Also, this weekend is the Charlestown Riverfest.  It is running from Friday to Sunday with lots of activities and things to do.  Admission is free.

I'm not sure how the ground will be but if the weather finally cooperates, we might just see some sunshine.

Check out the website for more information.

Brandywine Arts Festival

This weekend, September 10th and 11th is the Brandywine Festival of the Arts in Wilmington.  For $5.00 you can get admission for both Saturday and Sunday as well as admission into the Brandywine Zoo.

I went last year and it was really nice, but just so that you are aware, IT IS AN ART FESTIVAL, so most of the vendors are artsy related, Including my Mother, who will be there selling her beautiful jewelry.  Look for Turquoise to Pearls when you are walking around.

Parking is the most tricky part of the whole festival.  I recommend parking at one of the shuttle locations and bus yourself in.  I did it with a stroller last year, and it was fine.

Check out the website for more information and a list of all of the vendors as well.
