Community Corner

Bloggers Talk Groceries, Babies and Photographs

Highlights from the latest community blogs.

We all have something to say. It might be about our expertise at work like computer programs or the latest app for a smartphone. Or you might want to share what's growing in your garden so other can benefit from your green thumb. Others like to wistfully ruminate on their daily observations.

Whatever it is you have on your mind, share it with friends and neighbors on Patch by becoming a blogger

It's easy. All you have to do is sign up for a Patch account (if you don't have one already) and apply to be a blogger using the button on the bottom of our homepage. Have questions? Contact Community Editor Rich Arleo at rich.arleo@patch.com.

Ladies, Listen to What Your Gut Is Telling You

North Shore LIJ tells you why hunger isn’t the only reason to listen to what your gut is telling you. For instance, IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) strikes about twice as many women as men, and most often affects people under 45.

Learn how to tune in to your gut Wednesday, September 25, from 7 to 9 p.m., for a Women’s Wellness Program at the Long Island Marriott in Uniondale.
