    Swat PC

    Posted by The Scoop On December - 30 - 2008

    Being on the Computer all the time, you’re bound to have a Computer issue every once in a while and the people at Swat PC are extremely helpful and friendly. When I first found Swat PC,  I didn’t have a computer problem, but I had an issue with getting a DVD to play on my Computer.  I took the problem to Swat PC and they fixed my problem on the spot. I was impressed with their service and knowledge. Swat PC repairs computers, ipods, and do video conversion.  Swat PC is located at 1931 Eye St.

    Camelot Park

    Posted by The Scoop On December - 30 - 2008

    We had a girl’s fun day at Camelot Park, and we were able to enjoy riding go-karts, and playing games, two things Kids love.  I found myself being quite competitive on the go-karts. I played Pac Man, Space Invaders and Air Hockey: my favorite.  I was very excited that I was able to enjoy the fun too. Unfortunately no one was up for Bumper Boats. ☹.   At Camelot there’s enjoyment for the whole family!  Check out Camelot Park’s website for their Specials. Camelot Park is located at 1251 Oak St.

    Del Taco

    Posted by The Scoop On December - 17 - 2008

    I had almost forgotten how much I loved hard shell tacos, until a visit to Del Taco.  I grew up heating taco shells in the oven for that crispy crunch, which I easily forgot after trying a soft taco.  Last week I went through the drive through at Del Taco and decided on a classic hard shell taco.  The shell was crispy, the meat seemed like real meat, and the lettuce and tomatoes were fresh. This meal was reminiscent of the old days!  My $0.99 was well spent. Del Taco is located at 2518 White Lane, 3624 California Ave, & 4250 Ming.

    Media Post

    Posted by The Scoop On December - 14 - 2008

    I didn’t know a business like Media Post existed until I wanted a copy of myself on KGET’s morning show. After being interviewed on KGET I contacted them for a copy of the show and they directed me to a company, Media Post that records all their footage.  Yes, their job is to record ALL local News Programming.  So if you ever need a copy, new or old, of something you saw on the news they are the ones you contact.  Their office is Media mayhem, with monitors feeding you nothing but news. Media Post also copies and burns CD’s & DVD’s.  The owner was great and really helped me out! ☺  Media Post is located at 903 H. St. #150.

    Elephant Bar

    Posted by The Scoop On December - 11 - 2008

    We had company visiting from South Africa, so it was fitting that we ate at the Elephant Bar. This was only my second time eating at the Elephant Bar and they still didn’t win me over.  I had a salad that was oversaturated with dressing; everyone else also complained about their orders.  From now on I’ll stick around the bar and admire the African décor. Elephant Bar is located at 10100 Stockdale Hwy.

    Fresh & Easy Neighborhood Market Grand Opening

    Posted by The Scoop On December - 3 - 2008


    Today was the grand opening of two local Fresh and Easy Neighborhood Markets. If you haven’t heard about Fresh & Easy Neighborhood Markets that’s probably because they just celebrated their one-year anniversary.  Fresh & Easy has been on a mission this year opening over one hundreds stores to bring your neighborhood fresh and affordable food.  Fresh & Easy offers high quality meats, fresh produce, and products with no artificial colors or flavors.  Their stores are small and easy to navigate which makes it easy to get in and get out. I love that they have non-frozen ready meals that only need heating.  I also found two of my favorite things:  Watermelon Juice and Kozy Shack rice pudding. Fresh & Easy IS changing the way people shop! Fresh & Easy has two new locations Olive & Jewetta and Panama & Stine.  They’re planning on opening 4 more stores in Kern County.  To find out more about Fresh & Easy check out their website.

    Junior League of Bakersfield Wine Fest

    Posted by The Scoop On December - 2 - 2008

    The Junior League of Bakersfield had their annual Wine Fest November 22nd at Stier’s RV in the Auto Mall.  I was on the decorating committee so I had the opportunity to help make the event shine with the theme “Starry Night”.  This was my first Wine Fest, and I thoroughly enjoyed the night of elegance, that for me started on the red carpet and ended on a couch in the sports tent watching football and eating wings. ☺  Everyone had a great time consuming wine from local vineyards, eating, and bidding on auction items.  I enjoyed the sports tent, and warmed up around the fire with billowing cigars.  Next year I’ll be dressed for the Red Carpet!  For more information on the Junior League of Bakersfield and their events check out their website at www.juniorleagueofbakersfield.org.
