A grand opening for a new cupcake shop took place on Tuesday, April 26, and was “a complete success,” according to Mrs. Alarcon, part-owner of Ailento – all things cupcakes, she says, “we had several community members supporting us.” Mrs. Alarcon says that she was raised here in Los Fresnos, “I graduated from LFHS, to me it makes me proud to see my city grow, and to be able to be a part of that makes me very happy.” As mentioned, Ailento cupcake shop is a partnership deal. The other partner is Ivana Medina,
who’s a College Senior Graduate this year and has been baking cupcakes for several years now. Medina says that she started baking in 2020, she mentions that her mom’s coworkers, were big supporters of her new small business at the time, but it wasn’t until Maricela Alarcon, owner of Parra’s tamales and restaurant, tasted her delicious cupcakes that things really started to take off. Mrs. Alarcon says “I met Ivana through a mutual acquaintance.” She says “One day he brought me a sample of Ivana’s mostachones and I thought they were delicious.” Mrs. Alarcon says that she asked who made the cupcakes and wanted to offer a
partnership. Alarcon says, “She visited me at my office and we started planning from there.” Medina gave it some thought and decided with her family that she was up for the challenge and opportunity. Medina says concerning this amazing opportunity that “It was only by the grace of G-d,” She says “I don’t really believe in coincidences, you know?” She’s thankful for all the many opportunities put in her path. The Grand opening was a great success, having lots of friends and family come out to the event. Medina says her mom, brother, and boyfriend all came out to help, come Grand Opening Day. Mrs. Alarcon’s
Daughter helped run the cash register while her brother and boyfriend were taking orders down and giving them to the different customers. She says “I would’ve freaked out, BIG TIME, if I hadn’t had them there with me,” But in the end, everything came together, and customers were happy. Enjoying the delicious freshly made cupcakes. Community Members like the Mayor, Alex Flores, City Manager, Mark Milum, & the Executive Director for the Los Fresnos Chamber of Commerce, Val Champion all came out welcoming the new Cupcake Shop. And to officially open Ailento, they had a ribbon-cutting; which
was a great moment that had community members along with both families right there beside the new partners. A very warm welcome from the City of Los Fresnos. Already, they seem to have a great variety of sweets, Mrs. Alarcon says “Customers were happy to see variety. Our goal is to make as many items in a cupcake size to give customers as possible a have the ability to get a variety of treats vs one big cake.” She also says “We do plan on expanding our menu to include bigger treats for larger parties.” A great start to a new journey. You can visit The Ailento bakery in the plaza behind the stripes on FM803.

Ask Our Dentists by DR. ADAM LALONDE
5 Diabetic Risks everyone should know about…
“Your Community Newspaper”
ANSWERED by DR.ADAM LALONDE:
Our dental team would like you to know that gum disease has been called a complication of diabetes, and since diabetics are more prone to gum disease, they need to be especially vigilant about oral health. If you are diabetic, you are more likely to develop infections, including gum disease. • Gum disease can make Dr. Adam Lalonde it more difficult for anyone to control blood sugar … especially if you are diabetic. • Uncontrolled blood sugar can increase your risk of complications. • Diabetes is a major risk factor for systemic illnesses including Alzheimer’s and cardiovascular diseases. Both have been linked to advanced gum disease. • Nearly 26 million North Americans, including kids, are affected by diabetes, while an estimated 79 million adults aged 20 years or older have “prediabetes” where blood sugar is higher than normal. IN CONCLUSION: If you are diabetic or prediabetic, please accept our invitation to call our office. We’d like you to see us as well as your physician so that we can monitor any gum problems and deal with them promptly.

5 Must-Have Items for Your Spring Camping Trip (StatePoint) The spring camping season is here and it’s time to get ready. These five musthave items are not only compact, they’ll ensure you have fun and make the most of your trip: 1. Rest and relaxation: After a day of vigorous activity, you deserve to put your feet up. And there is no better way to relax than with a hammock. Hammocks that come with their own stand offer super easy
set-up, instantaneously turning your campgrounds into a home away from home. 2. Tech support: Whether your day-time excursions include fishing, hiking or rappelling, wearable tech can support your adventures. The ProTrek PRT-B50 Series of watches feature a compass, an altitude/barometer and temperature measurements so you can stay oriented and safe. For
those tracking their fitness goals, calories burned and step count offer valuable metrics that are recorded by the ProTrek Connected app. The app also offers a lineup of useful tools for the outdoors, including a Trekking Log that plots altitude points along the trail, and a Location Indicator, to help you track your route from pinned locations. 3. Delicious snacks: For a delicious evening snack, don’t forget supplies for
S’mores. To simplify your packing, get a kit that comes with all the ingredients and tools you need for gooey goodness, including roasting sticks. All you need to provide is the campfire. 4. Music makers: Speaking of campfires, the best nights under the stars are those accompanied by music. To shake things up a bit, bring along a portable keyboard, like the Casiotone CT-S200. This ultra-compact model
is powered by six AA batteries and features a built-in carrying handle and speakers, so you make music wherever and whenever you want. Weighing less than 8 pounds and small enough to fit into a slightly oversized backpack, it’s the perfect instrument for on-the-go adventures. 5. Streamlined entry: National Park Pass: Frequent campers should not leave home without a National Parks and
Federal Recreational Lands Pass. Covering entrance, standard amenity fees and day use fees for a driver and all passengers in a personal vehicle, it’s a cost-effective way to enjoy over 2,000 national parks and wildlife refuges nationwide. As you ease into the camping season, gear up with supplies that make every adventure amazing.

American citizens who live on the border feel the brunt of our broken immigration policies. Unless action is taken soon, the surge coming across will surpass the alarming numbers we experienced last year. Meanwhile, DREAMers continue to wait for justice as employers continue to wait for updates to work visas.
It’s time to fix immigration now.
My message to GOVERNOR ABBOTT: Immigration should not be used to gain political points. Rhetoric that dehumanizes immigrants and insults Texas’ number 1 trading partner makes reform less likely and hurts Texas Jobs. We need reasonable limits and smart technology, but we also need a resolution for DREAMERS.
It’s time to sit down at the table to fix immigration now.
