A mom with small children
must have enough arms to wipe, wrangle, nurse, feed and snuggle her wee ones,
while at the same time performing all the tasks expected of a grown-up, like
combing her hair, making dinner and sometimes, if she's lucky, putting on
mascara. The Kemby Sidekick is just the ticket for on-the-go, multitasking mothers. Created by local moms Kimi
Boal and Julia Young, the Sidekick is a diaper bag and hip-slung baby carrier
all wrapped up into one stylish and easy-to-use package.

Holiday 2009
Black Friday gets all the hype, but there's nothing wrong with hanging back, letting the crowds stampede through the stores on Nov. 27, and starting your holiday shopping in December. It's not like you miss out on all the good bargains if you stay home the day after Thanksgiving; great local sales continue through December (and even into January, for all your belated-gift-buying needs). We've rounded up some of the better seasonal sales for your shopping pleasure.

When Leslie Conti of Fremont's Eurostyle Your Life learned that the
Archdiocesan Housing Authority
was closing its 19-year-old wooden toy workshop, The Giving Tree, she knew
something had to be done to save it. After negotiating a great deal on the space and a workshop
full of woodworking machines and supplies, Conti reopened The Giving Tree in October as
Westlake Woodwerks, where local artists volunteer their time making small,
classic wooden toys and other impressive art projects.
