about meWhen I first came to St. Louis, I searched for some type of calendar that highlighted the types of events that I would be interested in attending. |
Did I really just write October? Why is it that as we get older, time starts flying by faster and faster? With Halloween right around the corner, I'm going back to check out The Darkness in Soulard later this week. It's added a big expansion since last year...I'll let you know how it goes. This is a great week for those into food and wine. The Taste of St. Louis is awesome...I went last year. Go hungry! And then there's the wine festival this weekend including the preview party that the Young Friends put on Friday night. I haven't been able to make this yet but wine at the base of art hill...how can it not be fantastic? Have a great week!

Can't wait to hit up STLFW! Is it me or does STL seem so hot now?! There are always a ton of things to do and now it's becoming harder to choose!
You don't have the Best of Missouri Market listed. It is being held at the Botanical Garden this Saturday & Sunday 10/3 & 4.
Just thought you would like to know.
