It’s the holiday season so hoop-de-do and dickory dock and don't forget we’re off for the next two weeks!

We rewind to the art opening at the Herb and Milly Iris Gallery, the Baker Square dedication, and even more holiday preparations.

We are looking forward to ribbon cuttings, a wine tasting, a tiki pop-up bar, Dickens Village, a holiday market, the Local D, Old Year’s Eve, and embroidery journals.

Three Things with free karate classes, the SO Elf Chase, join a Maplewood Township committee, a vintage Pop-Up, Fox and Falcon, and CKO.

Our last Co-Lab Thing To Know all about the Co-Lab marketplace, a gingerbread house decorating event, and two pop-ups this weekend!

Whatever you celebrate, have a great holiday everyone!

We kick things off with a debate about chocolate chip cookies and, not surprisingly, we don’t agree. 

We rewind to the Baker Street Flea, shopping local for gifts, and holiday prep. 

We are looking forward to diving deeper into the holiday season with a holiday wine tasting, the South Orange Holiday Market, an art opening at the Herb and Milly Iris Gallery, pop-up events, live music, Breakfast with Santa, a tree lighting, two holiday concerts, Coda’s Ugly Sweater Party, and more!

Three Things with leaf collection, a NYE Wine Dinner Extravaganza, battery recycling, a new family-focused book shop, LEGOs, and NJ prohibits book banning.

Our Co-Lab Thing to Know this week is all about SOMA Sweets, one of our favs. Those gummy bears, amiright? Plus two weekend pop-ups!
