First Annual Lemonade Day in San Antonio, TX
Last summer, while visiting my sister in Houston, I vividly remember reading a front-page story that made me so excited! It was about Lemonade Day, sponsored by Prepared4Life.org (P4L), a program the entire city of Houston supports that encourages kids to become young entrepreneurs, from kindergarten through the 12th grade, by teaching the fundamentals of business and financial planning.

About Geekette Bits
I started Geekette Bits in March 2009 (launched mid-July) because people kept saying, "I wish you could do this..." and I would exclaim back, "You can!"
I'm a 20 something with a knack for finding incredible deals for ANYTHING, love to promote little known websites I find, enjoy programming (CS/Math degree), play darts to unwind, and love helping people help themselves in ways they never knew to ask about!
I enjoy spreading the wealth, connecting the dots between random thoughts, and catching people off guard with how un-stereotypical I am...tell me I can't do something because girls don't do that...and I will prove you wrong... ;-)

Hung Cuong Pho Restaurant | San Antonio Actually searching for a junior-sized basketball, my daughter and I had a serendipitous encounter with the Hung Cuong Restaurant when stopping at the sporting goods store. Although we didn’t find the basketball (it was actually a winter sports store…) we did find a new Vietnamese restaurant to try. We stopped by before basketball practice later in the week.
