Support to our local farmers

Yesterday I went to the Pleasant Valley Garden Center to show my support to our local farmers. I know its a small thing but I wish everyone would try to make the effort to by their plants and vegetables from their local farms. You don't get anymore organic then this. Our farmers need our support so they can continue to provide us with fresh, healthy, chemicl free fruits and veggies that are so much better for our families.

I met the owners of the garden center and they were just the nicest people. Every customer that entered was greated with a warm welcome and received the help that they needed. The staff was extremely knowledgable and could answer any question posed to them. I can see why so many people would choose to pay a little bit more for better service, I certainly would.

I had a great time yesterday talking to everyone about what they were going to grow in their own gardens and I also learned a little bit about gardening myself.

Do Onto Others...

Do onto others as you would have done onto yourself. I have always tried to live my life by this motto. Unfortunately not everyone else does. I think that if people stopped to think how hurtful their actions may be to someone then there would be less crime and violence in this world. Before I act I always try to think that if what I am doing will hurt someone else.
I am not perfect, and I have unintentionally hurt people in my life, but when I do I always apologize and try to make it right. I wish others would make an effort to do the same. If you hurt someone recognize it and apologize, this will go a long way even if that person does not accept your apology immediately.
So remember to think of others before you think of yourselves and you will be happy because of it.

Mrs. Massachusetts United States 2010

I am truly excited to be representing the married women of Massachusetts this year. I would like to begin by giving you a little information about myself. I attended Merrimack College in North Andover Massachusetts where I graduated cum laude with a BS in Health Science. From there I attended Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in Boston and received my DMD degree. I currently practices general dentistry in Methuen, Massachusetts. I am an appointed member of the Council of Dental Education for the Massachusetts Dental Society.

Aside from my dentistry I serve as the Assistant Artistic Director for the Methuen Ballet Ensemble where I also holds the role of principal dancer. Taking on the vision of the company’s founder, I firmly believes in the mission of the company which is to create an opportunity for young people to showcase their talents and not turn anyone away who presents with the desire to commit.

While a student a Tufts Dental School, I participated in “Smile Share and Care,” a pediatric outreach program to the children of the Boston China Town YMCA. Here is where I learned that there was a great need to educate the youth about the importance of their oral health. Now, I am hoping to capitalize on my title of Mrs. Massachusetts to educate the public about the importance of oral health for overall health.
