The Weekender: January 8 - January 10 — Glens Falls Living

The Weekender: January 8 - January 10

Friday. We made it. To be honest, it’s been hard to feel upbeat about weekend plans after the horrifying scenes we witnessed at the Capitol on Wednesday, not to mention the rising numbers of Covid we’re seeing both locally and across the country.

This weekend, we’re aiming for a balance of staying engaged and informed while also making sure we’re not doomscrolling (yep - that’s a thing - here’s a story on it!), and so with that said, here’s what we’re hoping to fit in:

 
 

Date Night, To Go: Some of our favorite downtown restaurants are starting to switch from dine-in to take out only, and the latest this week is Doc’s. They just launched their To Go Menu and we’ve got our eye on the 3 Course Prix Fixe - Butternut Squash Ravioli and Deep Dish Apple Crumb Pie - yes please! Browse the menu and get ordering details here.

Crandall Curbside: Reading more is definitely a goal of ours in 2021, and we’re hoping to grab a few more books from Crandall Library this week. They’ve switched to curbside services only for the time being, and we’re re-reading this list of book recommendations that we shared last year to help us make our selections. Grab the details on Crandall Curbside here.

Fill Our Seats: The Wood Theater has been closed for nearly 300 days, and we miss strolling downtown to see a show now more than ever. The Wood has started the Fill Our Seats campaign to help them avoid further layoffs and to ensure they’re able to re-open when finally permitted to do so.

…And Fill Our Cookie Jar: What would a winter weekend be without some baking?! Whenever Tom goes to Hannaford by himself, he always comes back with a box of those peanut butter cookies from the bakery (you know - the ones with the Reese’s Pieces mixed in?!). Anyway, we’re hoping to make our own this weekend with this recipe!

Enjoy the weekend -
Bri + Tom


Special thanks to Glens Falls Hospital for making this story possible!

Whether you live in our region year-round or seasonally, or visit on vacation or for business, the Emergency Department is here for every one of us, any day, any time, we might need it.  Now, the Emergency Department needs our help. 

As a not-for-profit, community hospital, Glens Falls Hospital is committed to providing care to everyone who seeks it, regardless of their ability to pay. In 2022, the Hospital provided nearly $6.5 million in charity care. In addition, the health insurance payments the Hospital receives for most patients do not cover the cost of care, nor allow for major investments like the new Emergency Department project without community support.

Won’t you please make a gift today so that the new Sheridan Emergency Department is there for you and your family any day, any time, you need it? Click here to learn more.
