ECO-FRIENDLY MIDDLETON SHOPS PROMOTE LOCAL CHARITY
ON EARTH DAY
Two local businesses, Oompa Toys in Cayuga Ct and Bloom Bake
Shop in downtown Middleton are joining together on Earth Day,
donating a percentage of sales to Olbrich Gardens.
Earth Day is a fabulous opportunity to promote conserving our
environment. On April 22nd, Oompa will be donating 5% of all
sales to Olbrich Gardens, and will be hosting an activity for
kids promoting recycling. Children will be able to come into
the store and decorate recycled paper leaves and fruit to add
to a recycled cardboard tree, helping it bloom for spring. The
tree will be on display throughout the Spring. Prior to Earth
Day, children were able to come into the store to add their hand
prints to a globe of recycled paper for the eco-focused window
display, which also includes flowers made from empty plastic
water bottles. Customers will also receive 5% off all eco-friendly
items, such as Green Toys, made of recycled milk jugs, and Plan
Toys, made of recycled rubber wood trees and water based paints.
Bloom Bake Shop will be donating a percentage of sales of their
monarch butterfly cupcakes on Earth Day to Olbrich Gardens as
well. These cupcakes can be purchased at both Oompa and Bloom.
Bloom Bake Shop prides themselves on using locally grown and
organic ingredients.

TRINITY ACADEMY OF IRISH DANCE BRINGS
THE IRISH JOURNEY TO THE EAST SIDE OF MADISON
MADISON—Trinity Academy of
Irish Dance, now near its 30th year of celebrating and sharing
Irish dance with the Midwest, is offering classes this September
at TAPIT/New Works studios at 1957 Winnebago St., Madison. Classes
will be held on Sunday afternoons for beginners ages 4-12 years
old. No previous dance experience is necessary.
Trinity’s program in Verona , WI , has seen great success
over the past several years, shaping the lives of Madison dancers
who have become world champions and international representatives
for the United States . Trinity Founder, Mark Howard, states, “There
is an extraordinary amount of talent in the Madison area and
for years there have been interested parents asking for a location
on the east side of the city. We are thrilled to finally offer
our unique program to these dancers.”

About Trinity Academy
Founded by Artistic Director Mark Howard, a two-time Emmy Award-winning
choreographer, the Trinity Academy of Irish Dance is one of the
most renowned Irish dance programs worldwide. The Trinity program
uniquely centers on the empowerment of each child, with lessons
focused on self-confidence and choice, allowing each child to
decide their own level of participation in Irish dance. Students
are never required to compete, but are always allowed the opportunity.
From beginners to champions, Trinity generates a certain spirit
and style all its own – providing self-respect, confidence
and other life lessons, both on and off the dance floor. From
the first class, dancers learn poise and discipline through teamwork,
coordination, and balance…which quickly translates into
breathtaking performances, even at the young age of 4. The Trinity
program allows students to embark on a unique Irish dance journey
that not only provides them with a healthy, fun form of exercise,
but teaches them traditional dances, customs, music and even
a bit of the Gaelic language.
In 30 years, Trinity Irish dancers have garnered an unprecedented
32 world titles for the United States . Trinity Academy is the
first American team to have brought home gold for the United
States . The Academy dancers have been featured numerous times
on major network shows including appearances on “The Tonight
Show,” “Late Night with Conan O’Brien,” “Live” with
Regis, “CBS This Morning,” “Good Morning America” and “The
Martha Stewart Show.”
Come On, Moms! Let’s Get PUMPED!
Ahh...The joys of breastfeeding. Your boobs
are the size of Mount Everest. Wait...for all you know, your
boobs might actually be Mount Everest! I mean, not only are
they ENORMOUS, but they’re
certainly as hard as a rock, and everyone within five square
miles has seen them (even your mailman)! Okay, maybe breastfeeding
isn’t a joy all the time. Milk-stained shirts and teething
babies can certainly try the best of us. But that’s why
Shannon Payette Seip and Adrienne Hedger have written their new
book, If These Boobs Could Talk: A Little Humor to Pump Up the
Breastfeeding Mom (Andrews McMeel Publishing, $12.99, March 2008):
to help remind breastfeeding moms everywhere that they really
do have a lot to feel pumped about!
Proving once and for all that laughter really is
the best medicine for the breastfeeding blues, If These Boobs
Could Talk dishes out a healthy dose of boobalicious humor that
will uplift even the most deflated moms. In addition to more
than fifty games, quizzes, and trivia questions all dedicated
to the joys of lactating, moms will certainly laugh out loud
at advice on:
• What to do if you’re leaking with no baby in sight
• How to console a rejected breast
• Alternative uses for nursing pads
• How to find your inner hottie
So, remember moms, the next time your engorged boobs get you
down, pump yourself up with If
These Boobs Could Talk. A little
humor really does go a long way...especially in the middle of
a 2 am feeding!
