Letter from the editor:

That said, I want to tell you all how thankful I am for your readership and support over the past [...]

Eat all you want this year, because Mink boutique on Hawthorne Boulevard just received a shipment of tops as stylish as they are strategic. Many are nipped in just [...]

There’s a homicidal turkey on the loose!

Filed under Neat STUFF
Ok, this looks like a terrible movie. But somehow watching a homicidal turkey chase down a bunch of college kids over Thanksgiving break is still more appealing than watching the likes of Cameron Diaz or Sarah Jessica Parker make a mockery of our lives in some meet-cute, romantic holiday comedy. Really, which one is more [...]

Moonlight shopping madness in Woodburn
“Moonlight Madness” pretty much sums it up. Wouldn’t you have to be a total nutjob in order to plan a trip to Woodburn Company Stores at 10 p.m. on Thanksgiving night? That’s total turkey tryptophan (TTT) coma time, isn’t it?? Then again, maybe you’d be crazy to miss it.
Getting a jump on Black Friday for the [...]

Let’s talk turkey! Holiday shopping + dining

Filed under Neat TREAT
So who knew you can buy a Thanksgiving Tur-Duc-Hen online from Neiman Marcus? Isn’t it kind of weird and wrong to shop for holiday dinner and shoes at the same time? Or wait, I guess that’s awesome.
Anyhow, for those of us not planning to order up a turkey bird from NYC along with a [...]
