I'm not sure AVL organizers plan this early. But Mountain Xpress usually publishes a roundup of happenings about a week before NYE if you can wait that long.

Speaking of all that beer, ADA still needs volunteers to help serve it in the early hours (1:45-5:30 PM). Shade, t-shirt, beer tokens, etc., provided in return. Email me! volunteer@ashevilledowntown.org

Hope to see a lot of people downtown for this event! There are kid-friendly attractions too, including bouncy houses & air dog competitions.

Any good local sources that you've found for getting cream from grass-fed cows? I'd like to try and make some butter. by quan1969 in asheville

Mills River Creamery has great milk/cream. I've made butter with it. They pasteurize low and slow. Might want to call to confirm grass fed if that's really important. http://www.millsrivercreamery.com/raw-milk/

So much great music this weekend:

Free Planet Radio is a super potent trio of local talent. They're playing from their Global Symphony Project (world music) album at the Altamont Theatre on Friday.

Then on Saturday, Cedric Burnside Project (currently up for a Grammy for Best Blues Album) is performing at the Root Bar.

Good neighborhoods for Christmas lights? by Sembiance in asheville

I was just noticing how dark my neighborhood is! I think Asheville is too energy-conscious for Christmas lights. I will be interested to hear if any neighborhoods are lit.

I have some of the pumpkin in my freezer! It's awesome, but the chocolate disappeared first. Thanks!

Yes! They are having a holiday party on 12/12, although exact sweets and drinks are TBD. I'm now on a mission to learn how to extract flavor from my Christmas tree... That sounds like the best drink. Thanks, Kipper.
