Reading for Fun: Not Just for Dorks Anymore
Sunday, March 7th Written by Alison Lambert - Half Price HeadlinerIf there is one thing I learned from my days of watching Levar Burton blow my little mind with the wonderful world of books, is that reading is spelled F-U-N.

I Heart Tacos: A Taco Tour
Saturday, February 20th Written by Alison Lambert - Half Price HeadlinerTacos are the greatest. They’re like a flavor punch in your face and cover all five of the basic food groups (do the math…yeah I’m right) which does a body good. It’s pretty hard to mess up a taco, so most you encounter will be at least alright, but for some that just ... Read More →
Give Cupid the Boot: Three Ways to Celebrate February 14th
Sunday, February 14th Written by Alison Lambert - Half Price HeadlinerThere are a lot of V-Day haters out there, and I admit, I often share their disdain for the hyper-consumer, sickeningly-sweet pseudo holiday.
