E SHOULDN’T BE ONE OF THEM
include this negativity can cause you stress and anxiety. Instead, avoid reading these stress-provoking materials and try not to compare yourself to the page you’re reading. Aging isn’t a bad thing — it’s a part of life! Focus on the things that bring you joy and pay attention to how your body feels. 3. Practicing Independence: One of the hardest things that can decrease your self-esteem is no longer being able to do things on your own. But needing help with day-to-day tasks doesn’t have to tie to your self-worth. It’s okay to ask for help, and it can even free up your time to explore other interests and hobbies you may not have had time for in the past. Another way to show independence and build your self-esteem is by completing or updating your estate plan. You can choose where your assets go, decide who will be your power of attorney for your medical and financial needs, and ensure your wishes are granted. Knowing everything is taken care of and your desires are in a document will help you feel less stressed and overwhelmed. If you have any questions about your estate plan, allow your friends at Trinity Elder Law & Estate Planning to help. We will be happy to go over your wishes and ensure everything is in order.
Edwards Ice Cream Shop 518 Bairdford Rd. EdwardsIceCream.com
Julie visits this parlor frequently; in fact, her father used to come here all the time. This ice cream there has so much history because it’s been around for over 50 years. Edwards Ice Cream Shop is even near Julie’s local high school — so, when she needed a nice after-school snack, this was the place to be. This parlor has a variety of mouth-watering flavors for its soft serve cones, hard ice cream cones, sundaes, banana splits, arctic swirls, smoothies, milkshakes, and floats. If you need something more than ice cream, you can even get some food while you’re there.
Mazzanti’s Beans and Cream 1800 N. Main St. MazzantisBeansAndCream.com
Mazzanti’s Beans and Cream’s journey started on June 1, 2007. This family-owned business prides itself on making homemade, high-quality ice cream. Their soft serve ice cream is the real deal, made from real cream, not powder mix. They add new flavors to their menu if requested by you. For example, many customers wanted an ice cream flavor in the shade of purple, so they made a blueberry ice cream. And the bean in Mazzanti’s Beans and Cream stands for their delicious brewed coffee. So, stop by and try some of their specialty ice creams and coffees!
PEANUT BUTTER AND PUMPKIN DOG TREATS
Corner Cones 399 Bonniebrook Rd. CornerCones.com
On top of adding a new flavor to their menu each week, Corner Cones serves made-to-order food; 20 flavors of milkshakes, smoothies, and sundaes; and 30 different flavors of their hard scoop and soft serve ice creams. But unlike other ice cream parlors, Corner Cones invites their customers to stay a while and relax. They have a miniature train your kids or grandkids can play on, a field, and a coloring station. It’s a great place for children to burn off the sugar rush their ice cream will give them. There is also a lighted pavilion you can hang out in. Try out these parlors the next time you need to cool off because of the summer sun or if your sweet tooth is getting the best of you. These shops will do the trick!
