Former first lady Michelle Obama has co-founded the food and drink company PLEZi, designed to provide healthy options for kids, she announced Wednesday.

Healthy meals for all lifestyles are available at this east Belleville restaurant

Clean Eatz is located at 2525 Green Mount Commons Drive, Suite 280, in the same plaza as the Walmart, Lowe’s and a variety of other…

I am now in my second year of retirement from teaching and coaching after 37 years of doing both. As I have thought about what to do in my retirement, one thing that keeps coming back into my mind is the need to read some great books. I have always believed that reading can help you become the best version of yourself for others. When you are busy with coaching and teaching, like I…
