Sections SEARCH Skip to content Skip to site index Family Subscribe Log In Subscribe Log In Today's Paper Advertisement Supported by There may be a lot of bickering, but your memory creates a nostalgia-inducing highlight reel that makes you want to plan the next trip. ByNicole Slaughter-Graham Aug. 16, 2018 In 2015, my husband and I traveled to Washington, D.C., for our annual family vacation with our energetic son, who was then 8. There were no mishaps or disasters, but my husband and I spent most of our time bickering and stressed out. Maybe it was the fact that we two born-and-raised Floridians were out of our element visiting 30-degree Washington in December. It could have been that we planned hours of walking, sightseeing and museum-hopping with no downtime. It went exactly as planned but it wasn’t exactly fun.

Detroit-based tea maker lands major distribution deal with Sam’s Club
DeAsia Paige Detroit Free Press Published 3:45 p.m. UTC Jun 26, 2018 Nailah Ellis-Brown has come a long way since the days of selling Jamaican sweet tea out of her car. She had just dropped out of Howard University after only one semester before she started selling her tea on the streets of Detroit in 2008. Today, Ellis Island Tea, her family's recipe that has spanned decades, is a national brand, with Sam's Club announcing late last month that it would distribute the product in all its stores. "I set out with a goal of becoming a national household brand. but now that it's actually starting to happen, it's kind of like a contradicting feeling," Ellis-Brown said. "I knew I would get this far because I was not going to quit until I did, but then, at the same time, I can't believe I've come this far."

Best Memorial Day car deals? Edmunds editors offer their picks
Summer is the busiest selling season at car dealerships. The weather is nice, people have more time to shop, and the discounts are attractive enough to get buyers' attention. Dealers also make full use of the summer's holiday weekends, beginning with Memorial Day. Get ready for balloon-decked lots, inflatable eagles and scads of car ads. While Memorial Day is far from a peak bargain weekend, the benefits of shopping now are a wider selection of cars and a better chance of finding a vehicle with the options you want in the color you prefer. Bargain hunters who wait until the end of the year have to make do with whatever vehicles the dealer has on hand. For shoppers who want both variety and bargains as they shop around Memorial Day, the auto website Edmunds has selected a range of vehicles — including SUVs, trucks and sedans — that currently have significant discounts. The average savings shown are based on discounts from vehicles listed by dealers on Edmunds. Some of the … [Read more...] about Best Memorial Day car deals? Edmunds editors offer their picks
