If you haven’t already heard – there’s going to be an art opening at the Accidental Gallery in Boston, GA, tonite. It’ll feature work from a Boston native, Jack Adams, whose talent is first rate. Get more info here, and get there if you can – I went to the last opening and it was a hoppin’ good time in the cutest little downtown.
And if you haven’t got plans next Tuesday – and especially if you’ve never been to one of the “extracurricular” classes at Liam’s – sign up for this one: Extremadura, Spain. They’ll be serving Iberian ham which I’ve been hearing about quite a bit in foodie magazines and on websites. Must be good! There will also be wild mushrooms, a cherry dessert, Spanish cheese and, of course, Spanish wines. Rhonda does her homework on each region and you’ll learn a lot.
Starting this Sunday….. you’ll now be able to have brunch at Savannah Moon!! They’ll be open from 10-2, and also on Friday + Saturday nites until 8. I think we’re finally reaching some critical mass with our downtown dining – you can have drinks at Sweet Grass or Liam’s, then dinner at Jonah’s, Savannah Moon, Liam’s, George and Louie’s, Moonspin, Paulie’s or the Plaza, then coffee at Grassroots. Be sure to give Savannah Moon a great start on their Brunch!
………and I’ve heard whispers of a new little something going in the old GiGi’s building….. I’ll spill when I hear more!

Even if you’re not doing Team Lean with the YMCA, I hope your year is off to a healthful start. My Townie friend Misty S. posted to Facebook about some of her wishes for Thomasville and several of her peeps said they wished for more organic food.
Peeps…. your wish is here! It’s sign-up time for the not one but THREE organic produce programs we have here in the Ville.
The one I currently use and love is Orchard Pond Organics CSA. The pick up is on Monday at George + Louie’s, and you always get a good assortment of items. They also have recipes on their website to help you know what to do with the bounty. This season they’re introducing a new option: a fruit-only share. Check them out online here and sign up here. Cost is about $25/ week for veggies/fruit mix and $15/ week for fruit only. They also have 1/2 shares available.
The next one has been referred to me by Melanie J. and Katie C. who love it – Moultrie Organic Co-op. This is not a CSA but rather a co-op where the members pool their buying power. The items are local when possible, and exotic, too. Pick up for this one is at Sweet Grass Dairy on Tuesdays and you can get more information and sign up by contacting Jessica Mothershed at (229) 798-6764 or by email at j.mothershed@yahoo.com. Cost is $30/ week.
The last one is a local fellow, Edgar, with Pasco Farms. He’ll be delivering twice a week to Grassroots coffee so your food will be super fresh. They’re also thinking of adding items like bread, eggs and granola. Edgar is young and ambitious and pretty much does all the farming himself, so if you’d like to join his CSA, call or text him here: (229) 393-6563.
Sign up, chow down + enjoy what our lovely land has to offer!
And if you’ve got some wishes of your own…. cruise on over to Townie Wish and wish ‘em!

The Bookshelf has some sophisticated options for your Valentine… or, who are we kidding, yourself!
Love poems + paste - a perfect match for an evening in... just send the kids to bed early.
Love stories + chocolates - for your lovely or for your friends.
And for the kiddies! This is just plain fun. Do you think it would make you want sweets more or less??
For your science nerd O-O

While looking for lovelies for my Lovey Dovey, I flitted into Firefly…
If you can't take her to Paris, this will at least let her know you're thinking about it. And those soaps - so necessary.
Gorgeous cards for your Lovey Dovey. I might get more than one and hide them around.
And cards for Everyone Else, too.
Tea Parties + THE Laduree cookbook {Savory, not the Sweet one}.
What a fun little box of cards for every occasion!
