15 Nov '04

Hi neighbors. I'm trying to help a friend of a friend look for an apartment in Highland Park (or possibly Friendship). She'll be in town on Thursday and Friday of this week and is looking for a 1BR (or larger?) apartment--preferably with hardwood floors, high ceilings, and an "artsy" feel--for her and her husband. If anyone is looking for renters, please drop me an e-mail. Thanks!

Has anyone found a reasonably priced crew to come in and deep clean--wash walls, windows, woodwork, etc.--not just maintenance cleaning like dusting and vacuuming?

[Highland Park] Nov 12th Artist's Reception at Enrico's Tazza D'oro
by Jessica J. Pedersen 11 Nov '04

11 Nov '04

Hello, Neighbors - Looking for something to do on Friday night? If so, please join me at Enrico's Tazza D'oro from 7-9pm for a casual opening reception for my exhibition of oil paintings. There will be tasty treats to enjoy, artwork to peruse and friendly conversation with neighbors and friends. A portion of all proceeds from my one month show will be donated to POWER. Founded in 1991, POWER's mission is to provide quality treatment and support to women who are changing their lives through recovery from addiction to alcohol and other drugs. POWER, which stands for Pennsylvania Organization for Women in Early Recovery, was established to carry out this mission through a gender-specialized approach to care, with the sole purpose of creating an environment for women that would promote healing by addressing the issues that most commonly impact them. I'd like to thank Amy Enrico and her wonderful staff for giving me this opportunity to share my early works with you. Best Regards, Jessica Pedersen Bryant Street
