Urgent Care for Kids: Accessible & Available When & Where You Need Them Most

alt
Do you panic when an unexpected call from the school nurse shows up on caller ID? With my kids, the likely cause is usually fever, rash or an ear infection, and almost all of these symptoms require a professional to clear them back to school. No offense to my pediatrician's office, but sometimes getting in and out for a minor issue can literally take half the day (if I'm lucky enough to snag an appointment)! That's why I'm glad that companies like Urgent Care for Kids have convenient locations in The Woodlands and Spring.

A New Take on Chi Japanese Cuisine

altI love, love, love sushi. Before we had kids, my husband and I used to frequent Chi Japanese Cuisine in Oak Ridge North quite a bit. They have huge rounded banquettes that make for fun, intimate seating for a date night. Now many years later with plenty of kids in tow, we rarely get out for sushi, let alone a date night! I've driven by the location a few times recently and noticed that they now advertise themselves as an all you can eat restaurant. On a recent date night we decided to give Chi a fresh try. 

Unlike a buffet, Chi has guests order anything they want from a specific All You Can Eat menu that includes soup, salad, appetizers, sashimi, nigiri, cooked and raw rolls, fried rice, udon, hibachi items and dessert. If you're out with sushi-phobic friends, there's plenty of choices to keep them happy.
