Ragazzi’s Pizza: Delicious Food in a Family Atmosphere + Giveaway! (ENDED)

October 12, 2016

Many thanks to Ragazzi’s Pizza for inviting my family to visit the new Lakeside location for purposes of this review and for providing the giftcard for the giveaway!

Looking for a family-friendly restaurant with delicious food? Love pizza and are eager to try something new? Planning a party and searching for a place to host it?

Ragazzi’s Pizza offers all this and more and prides itself on a fast, casual dining experience. With 3 locations to choose from, families can enjoy delicious pizza, salads, pasta dishes, sandwiches, burgers, and a Kids Menu.

It was so fun talking with Jeff, the owner, to better understand his goals in building Ragazzi’s Pizza. At the new location in Lakeside, he purposefully created a comfortable space where families can share a meal together without the distraction of TVs. He focuses on creating delicious meals, full of flavor, and excellent service.

For Starters

Their Bruschetta is wonderful, and is included in many other menu selections including Bruschetta Chicken Over Angel Hair Pasta, Bruschetta Chicken Sandwich, and a Chicken Bruschetta with Pesto Pizza!

One of Ragazzi’s signature items are their Pepperoni Knots. I think my kids could have eaten an entire meal of these! Melt in your mouth with gooey cheese goodness made these a favorite.

Delicious Pizza and More

Our family loves pizza, and this was some of the best we have had! The flakiness of the crust is similar to a croissant, and the flavors blend well together. This Pizza Bianca with alfredo sauce, roasted chicken, artichoke hearts, and fresh spinach was amazing, and I love the thinly sliced chicken!

On Tuesdays, enjoy a Special: Buy one 12″ pizza, get one free! (Dine in or carry out. Not valid with any other offer.)

A friend recommended this Ragazzi’s Chopped Salad, and I am so glad she did! The avocados and creamy basil dressing make this an item I will definitely order again on a future visit.

This Lil’ Slice of Heaven lives up to its name! Filled with baked angel hair pasta, alfredo sauce, and topped with smoked provolone, this unique pasta dish was very filling and flavorful.

Save Room for Dessert!

Top off your meal with the sweet Peanut Butter Pie, the perfect combination of Peanut Butter and Chocolate. This was voted a favorite by my kids.

A Cinnamon Roll for dinner? Absolutely! So flaky and delicious, it was a perfect addition to our delicious meal.

Family-Friendly Environment – FREE Party Rooms, too!

Fine Lines Camp for Creative Writers: Write On!

March 2, 2016

The following is a guest post written by an Adult Camper and Parent of Campers of Fine Lines Camp for Creative Writers, one of our Featured Summer Camps.

My pens and pencils were gathered in a zippered bag, and a glossy blue spiral notebook and my three-ring binder balanced on my lap. I had arranged my favorite photos and quotes behind the protective laminate of the binder’s cover.

The auditorium buzzed with excited chatter. Some of these campers clearly knew each other from previous summers. They commented on new haircuts, they stretched taller to see who had grown the most in a year. They laughed easily and yelled across the space to familiar new arrivals. Others were shyer. Some were even trailed by parents with crossed arms and watchful expressions. Eyes scanned the gathering space for some kind of order, someone in charge.

“Move forward! Move toward the front!” our Camp Director was waving us all closer to the podium. Slowly, the murmur died down.

“Open your notebooks. Grab a pen. Number from 1 to 10,” our Director David Martin (Metaphor Martin) urged.

How exciting! I love lists. I love order. I love learning and stretching my mind. I love—that I feel like a schoolgirl again!

I am 43 years old, and it is my first day of Fine Lines Creative Writers’ Camp.

There are other campers here with a few gray hairs, too. I’m not the only one enjoying a bit of time travel.

My son’s interest and talent in writing is what initially drew me back to my love for words and composition. On this first day of camp he is a 5th grader.

My husband and I connected our son Uri with David Martin and Fine Lines because we know how transformative an exciting learning environment can be outside of the academic school calendar. We are both music educators. Repeatedly, we see such organic growth in our own students when they are inspired to take risks in nurturing settings, without the fear of failure or judgment.

With this template in mind, our hope was to find a young writer’s experience that promoted joyful experimentation and the opportunity for Uri to meet like-minded friends.

A doorway was unexpectedly opened for me as a writer, too. The adult classroom boasts a roster as large as any of the other groups. Every year our numbers grow, as does our affection for each other.

My daughter also joined in the fun once she was old enough to attend. We all look forward to camp every June. In fact, when our family was discussing vacation travel plans for the upcoming summer break, both of our children made it clear that missing Fine Lines camp was to be avoided at all cost! Never mind the beaches and mountains; these guys wanted to write.

In even the finest traditional classrooms, it is uncommon to see students jumping out of their seats to volunteer to share their writing with a room of peers. More typically, even imaginative and bright students sit tight-lipped, afraid to seem overly proud, or to be labeled a “teacher’s pet”.

At the end of each day at Fine Lines Creative Writers’ Camp, however, the queue curls around the auditorium. The microphone at the podium is angled up high, and then down again, as poets of varying heights and ages wait their turn to read.

Something powerful is communicated to every camper present. For the grey-haired, the message is that we can allow ourselves to participate in creative expression without being held to an impossible professional standard. For the young writer, a seminal idea takes root—Learning can be a lifelong endeavor that leads to communication, contemplation, and adventure. Write on!

– Maria Harding

New Games, Family Fun, and Delicious Food at The MARK + Giveaway! (ENDED)

October 22, 2015

Disclosure: Special thanks to The MARK for inviting my family to experience their fun new attractions and enjoy a meal, and for providing the $25 giveaway!

Looking for a one-stop family entertainment center where you can bowl together, play games, and enjoy a delicious meal, perfect for the colder Winter weather or hot Summer days? Excited to try out a new 4D attraction or updated high-tech Laser Tag right here in Omaha? Have a child’s birthday coming up and need a fun location to host it?

The MARK Omaha is an impressive complex full of fun experiences for families to enjoy. Right when we walked in the door of their newly updated family entertainment center, we were welcomed by the excitement and anticipation that we were going to have fun together!

COURTS

Their newly added courts bring families for basketball tournaments and volleyball games. It is a perfect set-up for families who are there for tournaments where they can have their own entrance to the Courts from the parking lot, and can also play in the arcade or eat a meal during a tournament while waiting for games or afterwards to celebrate with their team.

Have you heard of Bubble Ball (pictured)? The MARK now offers Bubble Ball, too – a fun, high energy activity for kids and adults!

LANES

The MARK participates in the Kids Bowl Free program over the summer! We love the little orange dinosaurs that are perfect for helping little ones roll the balls down and hit a few pins!

GAMES – New Dark Ride XD and Updated Laser Tag!

The NEW Dark Ride XD is a 4D interactive game with movable chairs, special effects, and the true feeling you are falling down a waterfall! After getting buckled in your seat and putting on your 3D glasses, choose from 3 different movie adventures and be prepared to challenge your friends and family for an exciting visual experience.

We choose Los Banditos, where we rode along in the wild west, passing by a train, riding down a river, with many exciting falls and turns. If it gets a little too real for smaller children, you can raise your hand and they immediately turn their chair off. We had a blast in the game and are excited to try the other two experiences!

The newly updated Lost Ruins Laser Tag is amazing! The high tech vests offer a variety of options including changing colors and teams with each time you are hit.

With two levels and cool special effects, we had so much fun chasing each other, hiding behind corners, and peeking through all the little windows. The hand painted and carved designs on the wall add to the overall effect and excitement – high quality, intense fun!

The newly updated arcade was full of new games and old favorites!

GRILL – Kids Eat Free on Tuesdays!

Delicious fresh food at affordable prices! I had a 6 oz Steak Dinner, with 2 sides including hearty chili, and it was only $10! My husband loved his steak fajitas, and had enough to take home for a second meal. Watch your favorite games on 40+ TV’s. Check out their menu here!

Plus, Kids Eat Free on Tuesdays with a paid adult entree!

BIRTHDAY PARTIES

The MARK is popular for Kids Birthday Parties with a variety of options and packages, including the NEW Court Party Package, where you can reserve your birthday party on their BRAND NEW indoor volleyball and basketball courts! See Birthday Party Packages here!

We had such a great time at The MARK, and are excited to return again soon. Their new attractions are VERY cool, and the courts are really nice. We were impressed with the entire atmosphere: Clean, Friendly-staff, Updated environment, and Family-Friendly!

Planning A Trip? Visit the NEW Travel Design Lounge: A Unique Concept in Vacation Travel

October 12, 2015

Do you love to travel? Are you planning a trip with a group of friends? Do you enjoy organizing a trip by yourself, but are interested in adding some special touches?

The Travel Design Lounge is a brand new concept launching right here in Omaha! Created by Travel and Transport, here you can experience a new way to plan travel and create your dream vacations. Recently, they hosted an event where we learned firsthand about all of the various ways they are here to inspire you in planning your next trip!

Unique Travel Agency + Coffee and Wine Bar

The minute you step in the door, you realize quickly this is not the normal travel agency. The classy atmosphere and comfortable seating help you relax and really imagine the trip you want to take. Stop in for a cup of coffee or glass of wine while browsing through the four large tablets available to help you plan your trip.

Be Inspired

The moment you walk in, you are surrounded by several large screens displaying beautiful images from around the world. You can let your mind wander and imagine visiting these exotic locations, surrounded by beauty and exploring new sites. Their unique approach will allow people to literally get a taste of traveling the world through specialty coffees, teas, wines, craft beers and spirits from select regions.

Perfect for Planning Group Travel

Planning a trip with a group? Bring everyone together to share ideas with an advisor! Several areas are designed specifically for small or large groups to discuss and explore possibilities. Instead of numerous phone calls or emails to exchange ideas and brainstorm itineraries and activities, you can bring your family or friends together in one location and plan out your trip together.

Your design… Your experience

I loved their mission to help you plan the best trip for YOU. The travel advisors want to understand each individual or group’s interests, and help you arrange your trip based on those interests – from adventure, nature, art, history, off the beaten path, to a combination of these. Trips can be specialized for families (Disney vacations!) with your ideas and budget in mind.

The Travel Design Lounge focuses on meeting the needs of each person that walks in the door. For some visitors, that may mean working with an advisor who can expertly guide them and help them plan their trip. For others, it may be providing the source of inspiration and guidance, along with the technology to help them plan and book on their own.

You are invited to stop in and experience the Travel Design Lounge, and find out where your inspiration will lead you!
