Maybe we're just getting excited, but it feels like there might be a slightly cooler breeze in the air. We're getting closer and closer to 'season' being here, which means that more and more food and drink events will start popping up every weekend.
Either way, the end of this workweek is going to be a good one. Whether you're looking to get your garden going for the fall growing season, party it up for Sunday funday, or party with some Brazlians, something is sure to tickle your taste-buds over the next few twenty-four-hour periods.
