Cocktails for a Cause

I really like when places that I would normally visit, do something for a good cause.  It is not unusually for me to visit the Brillo Box on a Tuesday evening.  If you have not yet been to the Brillo Box, or are looking to get involved with something, want to meet some new great people or just want to support a good cause then this is a good event for you.  The people at Planned Parenthood of Western PA could not be nicer, they are all pasionate about Planned Parenthood, Pittsburgh and they are all involved with other interesting… Read the rest

Beleza Community Coffee House

This story was in the Post-Gazette this weekend. The brand-spanking new coffee house is located at 1501 Buena Vista St. on the North Side and, according to Pittsburgh Dish, the business hours are: 6 a.m.-5 p.m. M-F; 8 a.m.-8 p.m. on Saturdays; and 8a.m.-4 p.m. on Sundays.
