Nonetheless, here’s info on the TaTa Event: Live Music, Dancing, Date Auction & Good Philanthropic Fun for Everyone! Speakeasy 412 Congress Ave, 6–9 pm Single?…
More free drinks!
Pobrecito El Chilito, no pudo sobrevivir en el centro. Pues, algo bueno pasó porque ahora se tranforme a El Chile! What happened? The little chile couldn’t make it just selling tacos on 8th and Congree, so they expanded it to a full chile selling the same menu as the original and Far West locales. Until…

Trendwatch: Summer Scarves
Summer Scarves Yes, it’s true, I am in love with the summer scarf. I have been for quite some time. It differs from the winter scarf mainly in its weight, but also in color and fashion of wearing. This is an accessory, people, and you gotta adorn yourself with it. Pick light, gauzy fabrics in…
Drink for [a] Cause(s)
It seems like there are opportunities to support local charities in just about everything you do. While I don’t normally highlight events until a day or two before, I’ve got to get this on your calendar because it’s a cause near and dear to me (that, and I’m the Brunette QB, and we need to…
