Bloggers From Omaha – Alissa Apel
Kim’s note: This is the 15th installment in a series introducing different voices from around Omaha.
Each weekWhenever I can, I’ll introduce a different Omaha blogger, what his or her blog is all about, and since I love getting recommendations as much as I love giving them, I’ve asked each person to share some Omaha tips.

Hope you enjoy getting to know all the bloggers from Omaha!
