We did it! We made it through the holidays! We totally understand if you want to spend this entire month hiding out in your house, eating vegetables, and avoiding social settings. However, if you’re ready for the next round of events, there are a few things happening around town this month. If we missed your favorite, add it in the comments! If you notice that some of our regular entries aren’t included this month, we didn’t forget them! That just means they’re taking a much deserved break this month!
