It is Saturday morning, and I am making another Better Lame than Never post. That isn’t an official category here at Mohawk Valley Girl, but it ought to be. I thought of the title after I typed in those two sentences. There was a novel then a movie a long time ago called How Green Was My Valley. I neither read the book or saw the movie. In fact, I just now used DuckDuckGo to confirm I had the title right.
Of course, the Mohawk Valley is far from lame. Right now I am contemplating what I ought to do today, and there are several choices. I’m sure the sensible choice is to stay home, clean my house, mow my lawn, and otherwise behave. BUT…
There is the Mohawk Valley Garlic and Herb Festival in Little Falls! I have not been to this fun event in years, but a whole posse of my family used to go.
The Garlic Festival is at Canal Place, but on Main Street in Little Falls, Chickweed Boutique is hosting a pop-up called Chickweed and Company. I love Chickweed Boutique!
Other than special events, there are shops, breweries, restaurants, libraries, places to walk, places to sit… Is staying home and cleaning really the right thing to do? Or would it be… lame.
