Opinion: The Seven Star Diner, get it all in one spot from a margarita to baked deserts and everything in-between

What do you think?

Local diners are pretty common throughout New Jersey. Most of us have a favorite one we prefer over others. We choose based on nostalgia or just the quality of the food, but either way, many stay loyal to their preferred dining experience. Seven Star Diner in Sewell, NJ looks like your average old fashion local diner from the outside. There is nothing special about the place that makes you want to pull in to grab a bite to eat, until you read the sign of course. They advertise that they are a diner, lounge, and bakery. This is definitely an attention grabber.

When you walk into this diner, it isn't what you would expect from an average diner. The inside is beautifully done with the bakery items near the entrance on display. The dining areas are an excellent size with plenty of space in between tables for comfort. The lounge area is also a good size but not too large. It is set up in such a way that brings a sense of elegance. The level of cleanliness is something you don't see often, including the rest rooms.

Aside from the layout and the overall environment, the staff is wonderful. Even when the diner is packed and wait staff is on the go, their friendliness and dedication to the customers shows. There is sometimes a wait to be seated, but popular opinion says it is worth the wait. Regardless of the struggling economy, the prices are fair, especially for the quality of the food. Of course, everyone has a taste preference and may not like everything served, the quality and taste of the food is a likeness to "home cooked" meals. This is especially true for the baked goods. The cakes and deserts are exceptionally tasty and also fairly priced whether you grab a slice or buy the whole cake.

I am not a promoter for this diner and do not have any affiliation. This is a personal opinion as well as that of others in the local area. Don't take my word for it though. They offer dine in or pick up. They also have plenty of space for gatherings. Check them out and let me know what you think in the comments or e-mail me at communitythoughts@yahoo.com

Pen and paper or digital notetaking and filing; Which is better?

Technology is everywhere nowadays. Everywhere you look, there are people on their phones, tablets and laptops. The world is evolving to be completely mobile. While it may be hard for some younger individuals to understand, there was a point where all we had was a pen, paper, and our memory to complete daily tasks. Most adults had a calendar in their house to write appointments on and special occasions. Students had a solid amount of note-books and text books to succeed academically. As of now, all of that can be done with a click of a few buttons on a single electronic device.

Kids have found a way to get around parental controls and parents are having trouble keeping up

As parents, we do what we can to make sure our children are practicing safety on the internet and act responsibly with their electronic devices. We monitor their activities, watch news reports, and try to keep up with current trends. We have a lot working against us already with the evolution of new technologies every time we turn around, but we also have the fast spreading of other influences out of our control such as the friends they make in school or in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, kids today of all ages know more about technology than some adults.

From your grandparents to your grandchildren; stress reaction and trauma effect DNA and genetic markers

We all cope with stress differently. For some it is easier than others. The way we deal with stressful triggers and even those with anxiety may be a genetic reflection of previous generations making it a partially inherited trait. Similarly, the way we cope and handle our emotional triggers can directly affect our future offspring as well as their offspring alike. This is commonly referred to as generational stress.

Opinion: Tricks of the trade with frozen fruits and veggies

The sad reality these days is that is costs way more to eat healthily and responsibly than to eat foods that aren’t that great for you. A good salad can cost close to 10 dollars premade and you can a burger from the same place for 2 dollars. The fixing to make salads and healthy meals are usually priced based on the economy as well as the season. Dollar stores and discount food stores sell a variety of food items at a reasonable size. However, it is rare you will see fresh produce or a health food section in these places. Luckily, there is a great way to still get some vitamins and nutrients at a great price where you can make a variety of healthy choices.

Opinion: Things we may lose sight of when dealing with our kids, especially when tensions are high

Being a parent is one of the most challenging tasks to take on as an adult. The old saying that it takes a village to raise a child is an understatement in most cases. We depend on the positive environments of their schools (if they are not home schooled) and we arrange adequate child care when we cannot be with them. That by itself shows the need of that village. However, there are also many cases where the child has a parent home with them the majority of the time. This is especially true for children who have not yet reached school age. In those cases, it can be quite a challenge to have nobody but a toddler to talk to and take care of. Frustrations can run high and parents can quickly become irrational from stress alone. Most parents don’t act on it and prefer to just handle it the best they can and keep going. I know many moms who wait for their children to go to sleep so that they can cry it out and get back to it.

The Practice of Gratitude and the Science Behind It

Gratitude is a concept that some people see as controversial. Many individuals believe they are full of gratitude, whereas others feel that they are not in an ideal time of their life and don’t feel there is much to be grateful for. While gratitude can be seen throughout religious beliefs everywhere, it is not necessarily just a religious concept. It is more of a life changing skill backed up by scientific evidence to prove benefits to an individual’s well-being. We don’t have to have a lot or have a perfect life to be grateful.

There is Never Enough Time; Issues with Time Management

Time management is a very common challenge that many people struggle with. Even when they work well under pressure and seem to have it all together, the habit of working under pressure is usually the result of poor or lacking time management. This can hinder us from being our best selves and as productive as we could be. We would all love to have down time and relax while still being able to get things done efficiently. IF our time is managed effectively, we can accomplish all of that, and without feeling like we are under constant pressure.

So, what about unlikely friendships?

Opinion: Age in Relationships - Just a Number or an Unsaid Boundary?

With the changing times, more and more topics that were once taboo now have a place in main- stream media and in our daily lives. One of these topics is age gaps within relationships. Traditionally, it is rarely given a second glance if a couple is a few years apart in age. Some are even closer to ten years of a gap. The problem is when there is a larger gap of 15 years or more, of course within the acceptable legal age of adulthood. For those who are more traditional, it is frowned upon to have such a gap, and for others, age is just a number and is irrelevant when it comes to love and happiness.

Opinion: Baby Wipes Have So Many Daily Uses

Anyone who has had children has had at least some experience with baby wipes. There are big brand names like Huggies or pampers, and there are generic store brands. Store brands are generally cheaper, but in some cases, they tear or are too thin to be effective. Baby wipes also come in a variety of textures and scents. Some have aloe in them and others are perfume free, hypoallergenic, or made specifically for sensitive skin. Most baby wipes have a main ingredient of water even though there are some additional chemicals in those with scents or moisturizers. Choosing the right wipes for our babies can be tricky but most babies are okay with whatever is chosen. On a different note, babies aren’t the only ones who can benefit from baby wipes. They have a variety of household uses that can save tons of money. I always preferred Walmart’s store brand of wipes, unscented.

Letting Go and it's Challenges

We all have things or people from our past that we have had to let go of. Maybe it was the death of a loved one, a bad break up, or a childhood occurrence. Depending on our emotional stability and emotional intelligence, we all grieve having to let things go differently. That being said, it is still a very hard thing to do most of the time. So why is “letting go” so difficult? Why can’t we just accept it and move on from things that are no longer in our lives?
