Hello, weekend! I have to say part of this working for myself thing has really blurred the days of the week. Regardless, I’m happy the weekend is almost here because there is a lot going on.
Tonight, I’m meeting two of my dearest at The Speakeasy for Happy Hour with Shea & Logan. Did you know that a 10 year-old phenom drummer accompanies accomplished local rocker, Shea Quinn, once a month for two acoustic gigs? They usually hit The Speakeasy for Happy Hour, then head over to Pete’s in New Cumberland around 9 p.m. Worth a visit, no doubt.
Tomorrow evening it’s date night with my husband at The Vineyard at Hershey for their next Cork to Fork: That’s Amore! wine pairing dinner with The JDK Group. Seating is still available for each night (I think).
Then on Saturday, join me at the newly reopened Buddha Buddha for a Chinese New Year Party. All the details are here. (Hint: Buddha Buddha has taken the focus off of food and is much more of a bar/lounge type spot. Join us for a cocktail before or after your dinner!)
And on Sunday … a little column research and then rest.
