I could eat cereal for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In college, those dining hall cereal dispensers (and the poor employee refilling them) would hate to see me coming. I just crushed a bowl of Lucky Charms and already have the impending sugar high penciled in my calendar.
I can’t offer you a fresh bowl, but here’s something with a little more kick: tickets to see Tyler Rich and James Barker Band this weekend. Go win ‘em.
JUST ANNOUNCED
The Black Owned Bos. Market is back for its 7th season, bringing together local businesses, rotating food vendors and a new theme every month.
The ultimate dream? All-you-can-eat ice cream for a good cause! The Scooper Bowl is back (in a new spot this year) and it’s your chance to support the Jimmy Fund in the sweetest way possible.
