 “It doesn’t matter if you’re a mom, a grandmother or single, life can be overwhelming at times. Every once in a while it’s good to give yourself a break and let loose with your gal pals,” said Lisa Agresta, editor and publisher of Macaroni Kid Newtown-Monroe-Trumbull-Easton-Shelton-Ansonia and Derby. “Macaroni Kid is not only [an] informational source of local events for kids and families, it is now your source for a little ‘Me’ time.”

Women of all ages are invited to escape from everyday life and spend an evening relaxing and pampering themselves. A Vendor Gallery will feature merchants showcasing the latest trends and home products. Some vendors will be offering free interactive elements at their booth including, chair massages, a waxing station and even a photo booth.

Vendors have each donated raffle prizes, including items from Tastefully Simple, Celadon Road, PartyLite, Thirty-One Gifts, Ridgefield Tennis Club, Park Lane Jewelry, CT Kids Closet, Arbonne, and Soap by Judy, among others. Each paid admission ticket will receive a free raffle ticket to enter to win one of the fabulous prizes. 

Relax with a glass of wine and hors d’oeuvres while listening to keynote presenter Patty Lennon, CEO and founder of Mom Gets a Life. A mom advocate, coach, writer and speaker, Ms Lennon believes in the power of intuition, taking action and a world where woman can be successful mothers and successful individuals at the same time.
