Since starting the Flippin’ Good Deeds Challenge last month, iNeedaPlaydate and I have been grateful for all of the shoes donated so far. Now, we’re giving you another way to drop off your shoes: Join us on November 5th at Mullen’s on Madison for the Flippin’ Good Deeds Last Chance Party! It will…
UPDATE: Congratulations to mryjnhnsn for winning 2 tickets to Bamboo Grove Night! When I moved to Cleveland, the Cleveland Museum of Art was the first place I visited. Along with the Orchestra and PlayhouseSquare, it’s one of my favorite cultural gems in the city. In addition to the museum’s numerous…
One of my favorite parts … of my favorite time of year … in my favorite city is Clambake Season! Last year, I enjoyed my first clambake at Reddstone in Gordon Square. We gathered a couple of friends, hung out on Reddstone’s heated patio, watched the Browns on tv, and dug into amazing food. Throwing chicken,…
The lucky thing about being a fan of food in Cleveland is that we not just have fantastic restaurants, but our strong culinary scene also features markets, breweries and specialty shops. This month, NEO Food Tours is rolling out a few events that spotlight the variety of tastes that Cleveland offers the adventurous foodie. We’re starting…
When it comes to checking out different places and events in Cleveland, there have been a few times where I dragged Scott along to something that wasn’t his ideal choice of spending a day. To his credit, he always goes along with me and makes the most of it. For all the times he has put up…
With a $32 million “Power of 3″ fundraising campaign and a renovation project that’s been going on for a year, Cleveland Play House opened its doors to the public this month with Bertolt Brecht’s The Life of Galileo. A couple days before seeing the show last week, I got to take a…
My favorite season of the year is finally here. If I hadn’t looked at the calendar last week to see Fall had arrived, this weekend’s fluctuating weather would have clued me in. To celebrate the changing colors and crisp air, Scott and I had two days full of Fall fun. We started it…
Growing up, I was surrounded by cars. My dad restored antique cars as a hobby, so at any given time the garage would be filled with vehicles in various states of repair. What always impressed me was how he could take a wrecked frame, and by scouring Hemmings Motor News or…
When it comes to Cleveland sports, the Browns always seem to get a bad rap. But while I can’t comment about them on the field (I’ll let someone like Waiting for Next Year or Bitter Orange & Brown wax much more philosophic on the subject than I ever could), I will say I have a…
In another life long long ago (err, 6 years ago) and far far away (Philly), I used to work in theatre. Specifically, marketing, sales and a little bit of backstage production work (random factoid #352: I worked backstage on this show for almost 2 years when it was in Philadelphia). So when Fall rolls around, I get excited…
