Hey! Sorry this post is late, but we were at the circus. I’ve already promised that I’ll post a review on the KidsOutAndAbout.com Facebook page tomorrow, and hopefully I’ll have a special reader review over here on Capital District Fun, too.
Is anyone else excited about the rapidly expanding food options around here? Personally, I think that the whole ShopRite hullaballoo was a bit of a bust (except for their yummy artichoke salad). But have you heard that the Cheese Traveler is opening shop in Albany? Check out the All Over Albany post. And Whole Foods is coming to Colonie Center–here’s the Times Union article. Closer to home for me, I found out that my church in Schenectady is the newest location for food swaps with the From Scratch Club. I am both intrigued and intimidated.
Okay! Down to business. Here’s a bunch of stuff that’s going on, and you can click on each day for the complete list o’ options. There’s fun to be had, people! Also, the weather’s improving, I think. So yay.
