But, there are still establishments that treat you like your family.  <a href="http://www.battlegroundeye.com">Battleground Eye Care</a> is one of those spots.</p>

</div>
<p><a href="http://www.battlegroundeye.com/Doctor%20Profile%20Scott.htm">Dr. Scott&#8217;s</a> professional philosophy is to treat all patients as if they were members of his own family.  How is that possible?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s only possible if the doctor is willing to go the extra mile &#8211; the same mile he is willing to go for his family.  That means he comes in after-hours for injuries or other serious problems.  If patients don&#8217;t feel their prescription is just right, <a href="http://www.battlegroundeye.com/Doctor%20Profile%20Scott.htm">Dr. Scott</a> keeps working with them until they are 100% satisfied.  If there is better equipment to care for the patient, he buys it.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.battlegroundeye.com/Doctor%20Profile%20Scott.htm">Dr. Scott</a> is a family doctor in practice, not just in name.  With that in mind, he continually updates and adds to his knowledge of your eyes.</p>

<blockquote><p>&#8220;We are a purpose-driven eyewear company and through our foundation, we have pledged to donate a minimum of ten percent of our gross sales to children&#8217;s charities worldwide. Reaching out to children in need and delivery hope is both our purpose and our passion.</p>
<p>But we cannot fuel our purpose and passion without competitive products of the highest quality. We design and manufacture fashion-forward frames that reflect meticulous craftsmanship and modern style. Our frames were designed to be seen and the mission behind them shared.&#8221;<br />

<p>To see the way Anni Frohlich sees is to find potential everywhere. In the aftermath of hurricane Andrew, Anni rescued two things in her hometown of Miami. The first was her beloved Pansy, a snaggle-toothed pup who turned into Anni’s constant companion of 17 years.  The second was a whole heap of 50 broken computers that she rescued one by one from a dumpster.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/AnniFjewelry4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-6276" title="junky chic" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/AnniFjewelry4-300x377.jpg" alt="junky chic" width="300" height="377" /></a></p>
<p>“I didn’t know what to do with them at first,” said Anni.  “I really just wanted to keep them out of the waste stream.” When Anni started to disassemble the electronic parts, she noticed that they looked just like little cities.  She started re-arranging parts and putting one object with another. All of a sudden, voila!  The first Little City sculpture was born.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/AnniF-littlecity.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-6285" title="AnniF-littlecity" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/AnniF-littlecity-300x418.jpg" alt="AnniF-littlecity" width="300" height="418" /></a></p>
<p>Anni’s cities didn’t see the light of day until she moved to Greensboro. While in Miami, she was afraid to show them, but her confidence grew as an artist and now Anni’s cities will be featured in an exhibition in July.  “The real goal is to create them and pass them on,” she said.  Titled Trash, the exhibition is slated for July 2-23 at the <a href="http://www.greensboroart.org/">Center for Visual Artists</a>, 200 N. Davie St. in Greensboro. Fifteen of Anni’s little cities will be on display along with work by other artists that also features reclaimed materials. “This show is going to be amazing!,” said Anni. Mark your calendars!</p>
<p>Like her little cities, Anni’s jewelry is not for the faint of heart—instead it is for the part-time rocker, the bohemian eclectic, the vintage-glamorous and the woman who is not satisfied with the status quo of department store monotony. Anni Frohlich’s jewelry is for women with gumption!</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/AnniF-jewelry1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-6278" title="AnniF jewelry1" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/AnniF-jewelry1-530x456.jpg" alt="AnniF jewelry1" width="530" height="456" /></a></p>
<p>Anni also offers select jewelry to those who bring her a shoebox of their old broken jewelry, mis-matched earrings—or anything else that she can reclaim and turn into something lovely. She’s especially fond of old broken pocket-watches and can use junk drawer finds, sewing box clutter, cufflinks, guitar picks and small electronics.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/AnniF-jewelry5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-6279" title="AnniF jewelry5" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/AnniF-jewelry5-530x464.jpg" alt="AnniF jewelry5" width="530" height="464" /></a></p>
<p>If you want to learn how to make jewelry or art like Anni, you can do that too! She currently offers private parties for both children and adults in her studio at <a href="http://www.lyndonstreetartworks.com/index2.htm">Lyndon Street Artworks</a>. “Up to 6 children at a time can come in and create assemblage art with me.  They can bring their own bits and pieces of found objects, or I can provide a variety for them to choose from. Adults are welcome too! Groups of ladies love to come in and have a party where they make their own jewelry.”</p>

<h1><span style="color: #33cccc;">A Girl Named Christina</span></h1>
<p>HONESTLY, I AM YOUR TYPICAL AMERICAN GIRL. I grew up in a small town where I couldn’t go to the grocery store without running into at least 5 people I knew.  I graduated with a semi-high rank from high school.  Went to college where I changed my major, count them, three times and where I also met the man of dreams.  I am 25, on the verge of 26  and I am planning a wedding for next spring.  It is through this experience I plan on changing the face of the wedding industry… one city at a time.</p>
<p>After a few unfulfilling jobs I landed a career that many girls would kill for. I am the manager of a new, local paper boutique in Greensboro, North Carolina (<a href="http://www.ashleighsfinepaper.com/">Ashleigh&#8217;s Fine Paper</a>).  I work with two fabulous ladies, that are more like sisters than coworkers.  I have, within the last 8 months designed  invitations for an event sponsored by the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts &amp; Sciences, worked on invitations for a Maya Angelou event in New York and helped nearly 30 brides find the absolute perfect wedding invitations.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/profile-pic2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5490" title="Isn't she cute!" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/profile-pic2.jpg" alt="Isn't she cute!" width="300" height="400" /></a></p>
<h1><span style="color: #33cccc;">The Wedding Industry</span></h1>
<p>The wedding industry is a $40 Billion per year industry.<strong> Okay, I just want to make sure you heard me correctly&#8230; $40,000,000,000.00  PER YEAR!</strong> That is twelve 0′s folks. Do me a favor and hang on to this figure in your head… and let me give you some reference. The <a href="http://www.the350project.net/dine_local_home.html">3/50 Project</a>, When you spend locally, the money stays local.  $68 of every $100 spent in locally owned independent stores stays in the community in the form of payroll, taxes, etc.  When you shop at a nation chain, the retained value goes down to $43 and when you shop online $0 return to the community.  You do the math. <strong> It pays to shop local.</strong></p>
<h1><span style="color: #33cccc;">Connect the Dots</span></h1>
<p><span style="color: #33cccc;"><strong>*</strong></span>Say the average wedding costs $20,000.  Say within the great city of Greensboro there are at least 2,000 couples that plan to be married this year.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #33cccc;">*</span></strong>If these brides bought their goods at national chains, they would spend $40 Million, of which $17.2 Million would stay in the city of Greensboro.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #33cccc;">*</span></strong>If these same brides used locally owned independent stores for their dress, cake, flowers, favors, invitations,etc. $25.2 Million that would stay in the city of Greensboro!</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #33cccc;">*</span></strong>That is a difference of $8 Million that would stay in your community, fixing your roads, employing your neighbors, bettering your schools and making your community a better place to live and shop.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/cropped-mml-header.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-5489" title="completely local bride" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/cropped-mml-header-530x96.jpg" alt="completely local bride" width="530" height="96" /></a></p>
<h1><span style="color: #33cccc;">THE AHA MOMENT</span></h1>
<p>After three months of burning up the keys on my laptop searching for every fabulous wedding vendor in a 5 state radius a light bulb went off.  Not one of those new LED or what-cha-ma call it bulbs that are perfectly energy-efficient and glow a tinted blue hue.  A huge, pull with a big long chain, hear it crackle when starts lighting up, honker of a light bulb came on in my head.. <strong>A COMPLETELY LOCAL WEDDING!!</strong> Let the adventure begin&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p>SO were we right Triad? Trust us on this&#8230; there will plenty of tips, advice, photos of eye candy and maybe we can even scrounge up a few Give*A*Ways along the way for ALL you local brides and brides to be!!! Make sure to follow Christina on her own personal blog at <a href="http://marrymelocal.blogspot.com/">www.marymelocal.blogspot.com</a>. She will have more weekly information you&#8217;re NOT going to want to miss!!!</p></blockquote>

<p><em>written by Kendra from </em><a href="http://www.myfirstkitchen.net"><em>My First Kitchen</em></a></p>
<p>I’d like to introduce you to someone. She’s a wife and mother of four, an entrepreneur, an artist, and the best grandma a daughter could ask for her son. She’s the <a href="http://www.theglasschick.com">Glass Chick</a>, and she’s also my mom.</p>
<p>I could spend a long time talking about how well she loves people, how she graciously enters into others’ lives to guide and counsel with the greatest of humility, how she hand rolls manicotti noodles so I can have my favorite dish on my birthday. But I won’t. It would just take too long. So in the interest of time, I want you to know one thing about her.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/il_fullxfull.134273137.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-5450" title="il_fullxfull.134273137" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/il_fullxfull.134273137-530x353.jpg" alt="il_fullxfull.134273137" width="530" height="353" /></a></p>
<p><strong>She is a freakishly talented artist.</strong> The woman can turn out some beautiful and unique pieces made from glass and copper and wire and whatever her lovingly calloused fingers long to create. She designs jewelry that will make you stop in your tracks, clocks that will make you obsessively check the time, large pieces of glass mosaic art that will turn your room into something special&#8230; she does it all. You want to learn a little more about her? I asked her a few questions to get us going, and once you’re totally sold, be sure to go see her in her studio. <strong>Meet the lady, buy some jewelry, and become a glass chick yourself.</strong></p>
<div id="attachment_5435" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 530px">
	<a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/me-and-mom.jpg"><img class="size-large wp-image-5435" title="me and mom" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/me-and-mom-530x355.jpg" alt="Happy Mother's Day Mom!" width="530" height="355" /></a>
	<p class="wp-caption-text">Happy Mother&#39;s Day Mom!</p>
</div>
<p style="text-align: center; "><strong>What’s your favorite thing about glass, Mom?</strong></p>
<p>The possibilities. Glass is unlimited. I’ve been doing this for two years, and I haven’t run out of ideas yet because glass isn’t boring. I don’t have to do the same thing twice&#8230; which is why I have garden stuff and home decor and jewelry and windows and portraits. It never gets old.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><strong>What goes through your mind when you see someone wearing your jewelry out in public?</strong></p>
<p>It makes them look pretty, and that makes me happy. It’s not just that my jewelry is pretty, but it enhances the natural beauty of the person who wears it. {I will interject here that I agree. I feel slammin’ when I wear Mom’s jewelry, and I’m not embarrassed to say so.}</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_0217.JPG"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-5438" title="glass chick jewelry" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_0217-530x353.jpg" alt="glass chick jewelry" width="530" height="353" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><strong>What is your favorite way to spend a day?</strong></p>
<p>I love to be with my family. I love to be with my girls. If the weather is nice, I like to go kayaking and then sit on the deck, build a fire, watch the sun go down, eat good food. Part of any good day is good food as you well know.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><strong>I have to ask this. What’s your favorite food? Or your favorite food memory</strong><strong>?</strong></p>
<p>My favorite food is food that’s been cooked for me by someone who knows how to cook. That’s why when you fix me something good, I always say I want it for my birthday. I like being cooked for; it’s one of my love languages.</p>
<p>When we were housing tobacco {my mom grew up on a tobacco farm}, we had moon pies and RC colas every day, but at the end of a week working hard, we would make homemade ice cream together. We’d build a fire and roast hot dogs and sit and wait for the ice cream to be ready. It wasn’t just the food. It was being together. It was an event.</p>
<div id="attachment_5437" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 530px">
	<a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_0196.JPG"><img class="size-large wp-image-5437" title="glass chick jewelry" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_0196-530x353.jpg" alt="Support your local businesses!" width="530" height="353" /></a>
	<p class="wp-caption-text">Support your local businesses!</p>
</div>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>You’re a local business. How can we better support people like you?</strong></p>
<p>Make it a goal to <strong>shop handmade</strong> before immediately going to Wal-mart. That’s a change I’ve made, and it’s provided me with quality gifts that really aren’t that expensive. You get your money’s worth getting something unique, and it shows the value of the person you’re giving it to. So just consider that first. Talking us up is another way. In handmade markets, people buy from folks they trust. If you trust me, you’ll tell your friend and then she’ll trust me. So just tell people about local businesses you love; don’t assume they already know.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/il_430xN.141117894.jpg"><img src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/il_430xN.141117894.jpg" alt="il_430xN.141117894" title="il_430xN.141117894" width="430" height="286" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5453" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>What do you like about people?</strong></p>
<p>Their stories. I love to know people’s stories. I love to know what colors their lives and what makes them unique. What they’ve been through, what they’ve experienced, what they love to learn, the things they’ve learned from&#8230; stories make everyone special.</p>
<p>And with that, I hope you want to learn more of my mom’s story. She’s <a href="http://www.theglasschick.com">The Glass Chick</a>, she’s awesome, and she can make you look even more beautiful than you already are.</p>

<h1>Shin-diggity Dog!</h1>
<p><strong>Aka…The Shindig, Sunday, May 2nd 12-6 p.m.</strong></p>
<p>What, pray tell, is a shindig you ask?  In essence it’s a dance, a celebration, a party full of merrymaking and exuberance!  The best part of all is that this one is free! <strong>On Sunday, May 2nd in Downtown Greensboro at the 300 block of South Elm St.</strong>, local artists, musicians, dancers and delicious restaurants will converge to offer you the best that Greensboro has to offer.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/melissa-blackburn-glass-design.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5212" title="melissa-blackburn-glass-design" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/melissa-blackburn-glass-design.jpg" alt="melissa-blackburn-glass-design" width="235" height="235" /></a></p>
<p>Over 80 artists, crafters and vintage sellers are joining together to display and sell their latest creations.  Many of the artists are part of a new Greensboro movement called Handmade Triad. If you’re tired of mass-produced-made-in-China products cluttering our lives and our landfills come check out what these local artists have to offer. They’re real people using their hearts and minds to create beautiful art that will withstand the test of time.  The glass jewelry above is by Melissa Blackburn Glass Design, and the pottery below is by Flying Pig Pottery and MSR Pottery respectively. For another sneak preview of the goods, view the Handmade Triad website (<a href="http://www.handmadetriad.com/">www.handmadetriad.com</a>).</p>

<p>Eight bands will liven up the afternoon featuring music by Holy Ghost Tent Revival, Filthybird, Decoration Ghost and more.  Their sounds range from blue-grassy and soulful to straight up rock and roll. Food from Zaytoons, Iron Hen (my new favorite restaurant), Fincastles, and Thai Pan will keep you fat and sassy and handcrafted local beer from Natty Greene’s will quench your thirst in the sweet sunshine.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/artbeat-logo.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5215" title="artbeat logo" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/artbeat-logo.jpg" alt="artbeat logo" width="320" height="278" /></a></p>
<p>The Shindig is an event associated with Art Beat Greensboro, the third annual celebration of local art that features over 60 events in 10 days.  Theater, music and visual art events pack the calendar from April 30-May 9 thanks to professional arts organizations that call our city home.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="post_image_link" href="http://seekthetriad.com/2010/04/turning-into-my-mother/" title="Permanent link to Turning into my Mother"><img class="post_image aligncenter" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/frills-and-whimsy.jpg" width="566" height="401" alt="Post image for Turning into my Mother" /></a>
</p>
<p>Just in time for mother’s day:<br />
Last weekend I was driving around with the sun-roof down and the Dixie Chicks cranked up when I caught myself doing something my mother always did.  I was tapping my hand on my knee… over and over and over again&#8211; just like Mom used to in the minivan.  For some reason, that drove me completely crazy in middle school.  I thought everything she did was embarrassing and I’m sure I told her in no uncertain terms.  Yet there I was… doing that crazy “un-cool” hand jive.</p>
<p>In honor of my wonderful mother and her subconscious hand-jive, I wanted to focus on Mother’s Day. It’ll be here before you can shake a stick at it—May 9th.  Fortunately, you still have time to thank Mom for all her little eccentricities and for putting up with lord-knows-what from you.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Suzi-Cook-Mama-Medals.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5178" title="Mama Medals" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Suzi-Cook-Mama-Medals-300x363.jpg" alt="Mama Medals" width="300" height="363" /></a></p>
<p>My favorite Mother’s Day gift idea is from Suzi Cook and her one-of-a-kind jewelry creations. A Greensboro artist and mother of one, Suzi’s Mama Medals celebrate mothers everywhere and give credit to their daily heroic efforts. “Motherhood was more than I ever expected as far as how hard it was and the weight of responsibility it carried,” said Suzi. She created her first Mama Medal from a stray domino years ago to celebrate the milestone of her son’s second birthday. “Those two years were a difficult transition and I was proud to make it through!,” she said.”  The Mama Medal recognizes achievements of motherhood with fun and funky style!</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Picnik-collage.jpg"><img src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Picnik-collage-530x166.jpg" alt="handmade with LOVE!!!" title="handmade with LOVE!!!" width="530" height="166" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-5184" /></a></p>
<p>As her son grew and began to draw, Suzi developed a technique to capture his art in metal. She creates custom bracelets, pendants and brooches from children’s line drawings for mothers around the country. This offers cool mom’s everywhere a way to proudly display their child’s creativity. Starting at $68, these can be custom ordered from Suzi’s Etsy site (<a href="http://www.suzicook.etsy.com">www.suzicook.etsy.com</a>).</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/neck.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-5183" title="necklace handmade" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/neck-530x276.jpg" alt="necklace handmade" width="530" height="276" /></a></p>
<p>For the mother who has everything, check out Suzi’s hand-embroidered necklaces combining the delicacy of embroidered thread with chunkier chains and beads. These one-of-a-kind babies are featured at Art and Artifacts Gallery (<a href="http://www.artandartifactsbr.com">www.artandartifactsbr.com</a>) in Blowing Rock, N.C. “They are fun, whimsical and different… not something you see everyday!” said the artist.</p>
<p><a href="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Suzi-Cook-Mama-Medal-bird.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5177" title="Mama Medal bird" src="http://seekthetriad.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Suzi-Cook-Mama-Medal-bird-300x449.jpg" alt="Mama Medal bird" width="300" height="449" /></a></p>

<blockquote><p>&#8220;While in Chicago preparing to run the Chicago Marathon, I stayed with a friend. She was excited to take me out and show me the town that weekend, but all I wanted to do was see her craft room. She took me down there, taught me how to solder &#8211; which was merely one of her hobbies &#8211; and I spent the weekend distracting myself from the anxious feelings that can come just before running a marathon &#8211; and I was hooked!&#8221;</p></blockquote>
