First of all, my condolences to the friends and family of WREG commentator Norm Brewer. Local news lost an important voice today.<\/p>\n
Yesterday I mentioned that I tend not to have the best coverage of New Year’s Eve events… well, that’s okay, because this morning Kerry from the I Love Memphis blog published a list of 16 ways to ring in 2011<\/a>. There are parties for adults, family-friendly events, and restaurants with special menus.<\/p>\n I saw a tweet from Cockadoos this morning saying, “Let us help with your holiday baking!” They can do chocolate cake, strawberry pecan cake, pumpkin pie, pecan pie, muffins and more.<\/p>\n If you missed the showing of It’s a Wonderful Life<\/em> at the Majestic Grille, you have another chance to see it in Downtown Memphis. First United Methodist Church, at 204 N. Second, will show the movie in a family-friendly environment tonight at 6 PM. Free parking, nursery available, free popcorn and drinks. Free popcorn? Wonder if the Nuh-Uh Girl will show up.<\/p>\n It’s Monday, and that means I’ll be at Pint Nite at the Saucer around 6:00, knocking off three $3 drafts toward my next plate on the wall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" First of all, my condolences to the friends and family of WREG commentator Norm Brewer.
