We can’t let them go broke.

We’re lucky to live in a city with a diverse group of theaters.  But, what if they disappear?  A few weeks ago, Creative Loafing’s Curt Holman wrote a tragic piece about the playhouses going broke (or near-broke) all around the city.  How many times have we thought about going to the theater, but, we’re too busy.  We’ll catch the next show, right?  What if we blink and they’re all gone?  Do you want to live in a world without the arts?

Donate what you can to your favorite playhouse.  And then, get out there and go to the theater, too!

Lets all get out there and fill up those empty seats.

Chicken & Ribs Combo with Sweet Potato Casserole

We’ve had dozens of great meals at KC Pit (old location).  Sadly, this is the first visit I would label as a disappointment.  I’ll be the first to admit that we did arrive at an off time (well after 2pm for lunch).  But, both chicken and ribs were luke warm and predominantly dry.  The rib on the end was tettering into jerky territory.  The interior rib was just “ok”.

The sweet potato casserole always reminds me of sweet potato pie filling.  I mean this in a very good way.  I treat it as a dessert.  But, I miss the days when each platter was accompanied by two sides.  Now, I’m forced to choose between collards OR sweet potato with a $17 combination platter.

Burnt Endz & Ribs with Collards

This was more of the same.  Both ribs and burnt endz were a bit past their prime.  Since this is the first time we’ve ever been disappointed by KC Pit, we’ll write this off as bad luck… this time.  But, with high quality Que all over town, this isn’t the sort of meal that has us craving a return visit any time soon.  This makes us quite sad.  We remember a time when KC Pit had some of the best barbecued chicken in town.

Jaemor Farm Market has a wide assortment of fruits, vegetables, nuts, snacks, baked goods, jams & jellies, fruit ciders and juices, preserves & pickles, boiled peanuts, handmade items and other gifts.  There is even a small shack selling BBQ.  (We’ll be checking that out on our next visit.)  The corn field maze & pumpkins for sale (many varieties of pumpkins of all shapes & sizes) in the market are a must for Halloween!

They’re open now thru Christmas.  (But, they close early on Christmas Eve.)

Current Favorites:
Elderberry Jelly
Sweet Potato Fried Pies (Amazingly Good!)
Quick Breads (many varieties available)
&
Boiled Peanuts (even if they are REALLY salty)

This is probably the best zombie movie since Shaun of the Dead. ‘Nuff said.

For those with kids, the pony rides will be the highlight of this unusual market.  The flea market has two sections.  One section (indoor) with new to newish goods.  Dollar store finds, clothing, jewelry, and other random items sold by those renting the indoor space.  The outdoor section is a collection of used garage sale items.  We saw everything from toilets to stereo speakers to a battered banjo.

The food court was wrapping it up for the day.  So, I can’t vouch for the food.  But, a Mexican band was drawing a crowd.  And, The Nutty Bavarian had a stand offering my favorite… candied cinnamon cashews.
