TERRA’S BIG MOVE Terra Restaurant at 3900 Ver-


mont St. will be moving to a new location in La Mesa after 13 years of living in Hillcrest. The move is scheduled to take place on Mar, 20 with the new bistro opening for business in April at 7091 El Cajon Blvd.


Chef and owner Jeff Rossman


hopes to bring his farm to table motto and style of cooking to a new area and a larger group of diners, hopefully gaining more exposure as well. “This is going to sound cliché,


but it really is bittersweet,” Ross- man said in a statement. “I’ve loved being a part of the Hillcrest com- munity for the last 13 years.” The new location will undergo a


change to incorporate an earthier décor as well as having ample park- ing and a recycling and composting program. “East County needs a farm-to-


table restaurant that focuses on sustainability and supporting local growers, artisans and families,” Rossman said. “We can more easily expand our efforts to bring fresh, local produce to children with [a] myriad [of] schools in East County.”

KENSINGTON MOM INVENTS OWIE PILLOW Kristine Currier, a mother of


two living in Kensington recently became the inventor of the Owie Pillow, designed to make riding in a car with abdominal troubles more comfortable. “During my pregnancies I ex-


perienced a lot of discomfort from seatbelts while driving or riding in the car and I realized I cannot be the only person who finds this uncomfortable,” Currier said in a statement. “Driving a car or riding as a passenger is usually unavoid- able, no matter if you are pregnant or recovering from a surgery. Why not make it as painless as possible.” The pillow is designed to slide


onto the lateral lap belt of any seat- belt in order to relieve pressure. The pillow can be used not only pregnant women, but for people ex- periencing general abdominal pain or pain from a recent surgery. The pillow comes in a variety of sizes and colors and can be purchased for $34.99. For more information, visit owiepillow.com.
