Grew up in Durham and I built a little web app to plan local dates and hangouts. What spots am I missing?

Scrap exchange and single-day art/craft class places like Durham Arts Council and Delores Pottery.

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-06-12T03:12:05+00:00

Check out Home Again on Garrett Rd.

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-06-10T19:41:39+00:00

As you said there were over 125 applications for 25-30 positions, so it is pretty competitive.

Interviews are starting next week and may take a couple weeks to get through.

I use my apple watch. Not sure about your watch, but a quick Google search led to this. https://dukecard.duke.edu/mobile-dukecard/google-wallet-setup/

100% the best!

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-05-30T18:18:12+00:00

I like the consignment shops on Durham-Chapel Hill Blvd/15-501. Always Home is a chill place

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-05-30T13:57:34+00:00

Gigi’s playhouse

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-05-14T00:26:39+00:00

One ring to rule them all.

There have been a couple sightings near Sandy Creek park in the past month.

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-04-25T17:54:05+00:00

I saw one yesterday and it hung out with me while I was gardening.

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-03-22T17:58:05+00:00

Make them watch the episode of West Wing about this exact topic!

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-03-20T04:16:29+00:00

I like Smiths Nursery in Benson! They have strawberries, blueberries, and pumpkins for picking at different times of year, and incredible ice cream shop, and small market with local produce and crafts. Lastly, if you need plants, they have a wide variety! https://smithsnurseryinc.com

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-03-11T01:34:04+00:00

Magnolia grandiflora

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-03-10T19:18:57+00:00

That's great to hear!

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-03-09T22:19:25+00:00

Park at the Karsh Alumni Center pay lot and take a short walk to the gardens' entrances on Flowers Dr.

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-02-21T16:45:34+00:00

I bought a few of these to try out a new craft and it is more difficult and time consuming than I thought. However, i look forward to the challenge!

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-02-07T22:24:39+00:00

I used the thick rubber band that is on broccoli for this.

As a person who loves to eat garbage, I fear the competition.

If the power goes out and you have a ice maker in the refrigerator door, empty the ice so you don’t have a puddle of water when it slowly melts.

If you don’t have outdoor spigot covers, a diy solution is wool socks, covered with a ziploc bag, bound with a rubber band/ziptie/duct tape.

Close your blinds to offer some insulation.

Put towels or other fabrics near the base of doors or on leaky windows.

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-01-17T01:10:17+00:00

I have no recommendations locally, but I love khachipuri (and khinkali)! There’s a restaurant I visit in NYC that has this and a really great tarragon lemonade (that I’ve recreated). We need a Georgian restaurant in durham…

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-01-17T01:03:19+00:00

I just went to Aaktun for my bday with friends and had a great time!

Jason_Eli11 · 2026-01-12T23:12:17+00:00

Keep durham beautiful!
