The eighth in the series of the Ten ’til Ten dinners has been announced by the Majestic Grille. These dinners are a countdown to the Majestic’s 10th anniversary this year, and each has a different theme.<\/p>\n
The next one in the series will be at 6 PM on Tuesday, February 23, and it will be an Italian feast<\/a>. It will be a multi-course meal, each dish served family style like they do it back in the Old Country. An Italian wine will be paired with each course. $65 per person plus tax and gratuity. Reservations must be made in advance by phone at 901-522-8555.<\/p>\n There will be a Mardi Gras celebration benefiting Grace House at the New Daisy this Saturday at 10 PM. Grace House is a licensed non-profit treatment center where women can get help with alcohol abuse, drug abuse, and mental disorders. Epic, JJ Wilson, Mylon Webb, Tree, and others will perform. $15 cover.<\/p>\n Children’s performance Moon Mouse<\/a> happens tomorrow night, Friday, February 5, at the Orpheum at 6:30. Marvin the Mouse, stepping away from the “cool” rats who label him a loser and a geek, engulfs himself in his science books. He ends up building a rocket that takes him on the adventure of a lifetime.<\/p>\n One of my vegetarian friends tweeted about banana milk<\/a> today. It’s a drink you can make at home that is an alternative to liquids like almond milk for vegetarians and vegans who don’t drink animal milk. Damn, that actually sounds pretty good! You can make it at home, and unlike almond milk, there are no preservatives. As a fruit-based milk, it may be more digestible to some than nut-based ones. As an option, you can blend in soaked oats for a drink that tastes like banana bread in a glass.<\/p>\n Speaking of liquids… one of my friends has recently had to switch from Miller Lite to PBR to cut costs. “Damn it, Pauly,” he told me. “For years I have looked down on PBR and thought of it as a shit beer. But now that I’ve gotten used to it, I have to admit you’ve been right all along. It’s pretty tasty.”<\/p>\n Groundbreaking for South Main Artspace Lofts will begin May 1.<\/a> The live\/work space for artists will be available to those making less than 60% of the median Shelby County income. The reasoning behind the need for the space, explained by Artspace’s vice-president of community development, is that artists may only be deriving a small portion of their income from doing the work they love.<\/p>\n Highly relevant tweet given what week this is, and so true:<\/p>\n If the GOP candidate wins the general election a groundhog will officially know more about climate change than our president.<\/p>\n \u2014 OhNoSheTwitnt (@OhNoSheTwitnt) February 2, 2016<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
