The weekend never gets played off the stage.
Your Perks: 1) 25% off tiny earphones that still let you hear the world around you. Your morning jog needs this. 2) An iPhone 5 case with four interchangeable, pro-grade camera lenses. 3) 36% off your supply of the electrolyte-packed, hangover-fighting LyteShow. Consider it your weekend’s new VIP.
You’ve probably tried a Mexican baked good from La Calavera Bakery at a farmers’ market before. You probably enjoyed it. So you’ll probably also enjoy their new brick-and-mortar spot in Decatur. Grab a pig-shaped cookie and an icy, fruity Mexican beverage called a licuado. It’s Mexican.
Spring is coming. Really, it is. And with it: a brand-new farmers’ market at the Carter Center. Show up. Look for vendors like Cakes & Ale and Star Provisions. Do farmers’ market things like sniff food and look up at the sky. We’ll also accept “smile at dogs.”
This weekend at the Goat Farm, the ATL Collective will be performing a 1983 Talking Heads album in its entirety. Go. Listen. Dance. Grab some album-themed food from the Good Food Truck, like Burning Down the House Thai red curry. They named it that because it’s hot.
Starting Sunday, Watershed’s regular brunch is morphing into a Creole-inspired one. This means there’ll be a local jazz band that’s been together since 1966. This means there’ll be eggs Sardou and seafood mélange. This means they maybe just invented Fat Sunday.
If you’re planning on watching the Oscars (and can somehow bring yourself to walk down an actual red carpet), head to the Loews bar. They’re bringing in extra TVs and playing Oscars bingo (it’s... Oscar-themed bingo). Winner gets two nights at Loews Hollywood. They really stuck the theme landing here.
