Saturday Farmers Market Rain or Shine
Saturday, January 31st, 2009
This week we’ll go to the Saturday Farmers Market in the sun. Last week we went in the rain. It’s all good. When it rains, someone sets out this rubber duck family in one of the parking lot puddles and the kids love it. Good ol’ Chico.
It’s Farmers’ Market day!
Saturday, November 15th, 2008Get down there! Buy some fresh, local produce. Sample regional food products. See if there are kittens to adopt. Stock up on ChicoBags. Run into that person you haven’t seen for a few months. Then, sit on the curb and chomp on a tasty tamale.
Showing Off Chico to Visitors
Monday, July 28th, 2008
Some friends from our college days came from out of town to visit for an afternoon last week. Their boys are 6 and 8. We love to show off Chico. They arrived around lunchtime, so our first stop was Burger Hut. We stuffed ourselves while our friends, who live in Vacaville, marveled at the concept of a locally owned restaurant. Then we headed downtown, where we hit Bird In Hand, Powell’s Sweet Shoppe and the used Bookstore. We were going to get floats at the Old Town Root Beer Company, but we were still full from lunch. We were going to head to One-Mile, but one of the kids got an owie so we headed home for Popsicles, which we ate on the porch. Good times, Chico.
Slice of Chico!
