The New Year fanfare has dimmed but there is still live music to be found in Charlotte. If the thought of placing the first decade of the new millenium still has your head spinning, there’s Dweezil Zappa playing his father’s authorized anthology. For the 90’s nostalgic, we recommend Cowboy Mouth at Amos’ Southend (link).

Mulching your plants and beds is one of the most beneficial things you can do to preserve your yard’s outdoor appearance and your yard can account for up to 15% of your homes value.

This is an amazing, non-profit organization dedicated to providing food relief and financial support to communities across the US. Each month they sell a medium-sized box of fresh and frozen food for $30/month. The food would typically cost $60 at the grocery store. This is a great way to reduce food costs and not lose any quality or nutrition.

If the season were to end today, our home town startups would be in the playoffs. After a wobbly start, the Bobcats seem to be hitting their stride. The Detroit game (12/22) and the Milwaukee game (12/28) should be well contested games as all three teams are surging.
