Happy Weekend!
As the person who has spoken only of my garden and its bounty all summer, I am highly tuned to the weather right now. It is supposed to rain all day Saturday, and I am FOR IT, and I apologize to all of the folks trying to have safe, responsible events outdoors that day.
That said, I have a couple non-tomato-related items I’d love to check off of my list this weekend, like:
- Hit up Little Black Dress’s 6th-anniversary event (runs Thurs-Sat)
- Donate blood (look for drives near you)
- Visit The Midtown Scholar on Saturday for Independent Bookstore Day — outdoor sidewalk sale
- Hunting down Tröegs Trail Day because I love hoppy pilsners. Haze heads should hit up ABC for their latest new release — a hazy IPA!
Oh hey, are you on the email list? In addition to getting this weekly update loaded with things to do each weekend directly in your inbox, I load it with a bunch of other fresh, original content. Sign-up here. I also recommend following me on IG.
