Birthdays are great. Especially when it’s someone else’s and you still get presents. Head to Belgian
emporium Saus to honor their first year, and they’ll give you the gift of gratis waffles. You don’t even
have to unwrap them.
SEASON’D
$1 Oysters. You’re In...
Charlestown waterfront go-to Tavern on the Water is opening for the season today, with $1 oysters at the
ready. And oh, are you ready. (The weather: less ready, in terms of their patio. But when that day comes...)

OLD MAN WINTER
40% Off Winter Gear at Uniform
Yesterday’s freak snowfall: a reminder that spring is still a ways off. Good timing, then, that Uniform is
knocking 40% off winter gear from Shipley & Halmos, Spiewak and more. Winter isn’t fooling you for a
second.
Sleds made from shopping carts. A best-costume contest. A strong to very strong chance of mid-race imbibing.
But enough about your Presidents’ Day party, let’s talk this weekend’s Urban Iditarod. It will have
all those things and start at 10am Saturday. Happy racing...
ICE ICE BABY
Enjoying the Dulcet Sounds of Iceland
Iceland. Home of Björk, Sigur Rós and out-of-control national debt. Celebrate it all this weekend with a
free concert at the Paradise, featuring local and Icelandic musicians performing together. Or at the Kendall
Square Cinema’s Icelandic film fest, which includes a woman who talks to the dead. The Sixth
Sense by way of Reykjavík.
