As everyone in Denver knows, you can find anything you want or need (or in most cases, don’t need) on Colfax Avenue. The newly dubbed Bluebird District has been an integral part of bringing new businesses to the already bustling neighborhood between East High School and Colorado Boulevard. Many of…
Mother-daughter team Sally and Sadie Kniedel want you to know that, yes, it does matter what kind of cereal you buy in the supermarket. They also want to tell you that buying the right cereal will help save the world. This is the theme of Going Green: A Wise Consumer’s…
The very first Cat’s Pajamas blog I ever wrote was to voice my opposition to black jeans. As a rule, I am still very much opposed to black jeans. They’re awful. That’s my opinion and I’m entitled to that opinion. (And by “opinion,” I mean “statement of fact.” Black jeans…
Slide Show Last night’s installment in the Riverfront Park Fashion Series, featuring clothing from Garbarini, had the base of the Millennium Bridge hopping with complimentary drinks, tasty treats and, of course, plenty of fashionable eye candy. The crowd milled about while the DJ spun — and for a brief moment,…
Dad’s day doesn’t have to mean a new tie and a barbecue. Or have anything to do with golf. If your man lies under that stodgy old radar, and doesn’t even like football, you can still shop for him. And actually have fun doing it. Here’s a few last-minute ideas…
I have never been particularly crafty. I once knit half a scarf and I still have a cross stitch project I started when I was 10. In Girl Scouts, the only thing I was good at was selling cookies and I think I was the only kid who hated art…
“Come look at the flirts!” Jenna Bainbridge (left) and Regan Linton (right) are tearing up the stage in Phamaly’s (Physically Handicapped Actors and Musical Arts League, Inc.) production of Side Show. This Tony award winning musical tells the story of conjoined twins, Daisy and Violet Hilton, and their rise from…
I have a confession. There is nothing I love more than a day of shopping, getting a pedicure and drinking copious amounts of alcohol with my girlfriends. I know I should say my perfect day involves reading or volunteering or planting trees….but I would really have to be drunk to…
The popular and extremely stylish Riverfront Park Fashion Series begins its summer run tonight from 5:30 to 9 p.m. at the base of the Millennium Bridge at 16th and Little Raven. Tonight’s event features clothing from the store Garbarini and will have a “blue sky” theme. Future events are scheduled…
I am absolutely dreading the arrival of Guitar Hero: World Tour. Can’t even enjoy the summer. It might sound like insanity, given that the fourth installment in the Guitar Hero franchise could end up being the most successful game of 2008. It won’t even hit store shelves till late October,…
Thinking of checking out Colorado’s gorgeous scenery this summer? Maybe some mountain lakes? Elk? A raging river or three? Go ahead. Have fun. That’s exactly the type of thing THEY want you to do. They being the pleasant little folk known as the CIA, the Illuminati, the corporate/alien overlords and/or…
Lots of states claim to be home to the mythical Springfield of Simpsons fame, but only Colorado can brag that it’s the site of that other great cartoon capital of the world: South Park, the setting of the subversively impertinent Comedy Central animated series of the same name. South Park’s…
As the folks at the Colorado Film Commission will tell you, our fair state offers an incredible variety of potential movie locations: mountains, deserts, farmland, big cities, little towns and so on. And even though we don’t offer Hollywood types — many of whom spend their leisure time at such…
In Colorado, it’s easy to go to extremes. So this summer, do something crazy. Ride your mountain bike down a steep, rocky path. Graduate from hiking to climbing. Paddle through a class V rapid. Hurl yourself from an airplane. Soar over a forest while dangling from a steel cable. An…
Colorado makes more beer than any other state (23.4 million barrels), has the highest per capita number of craft breweries (92), and is home to both the biggest beer bash of the year (the Great American Beer Festival) and the largest single brewing facility in the nation (Coors). Oh, and…
All thoughts of skiing melt away with the arrival of consistently clear skies and warm days, as Denverites head for the hills. If you’re not exactly the climb-a-fourteener-every-weekend type — or if you just don’t want to drive for hours to get to your destination — there are plenty of…
Most days, the mountains are a fair trade for Denver’s lack of an ocean. And on those other days when the mercury is really rising, you can beat the heat at nearby pools and water parks. In addition to Denver’s sixteen public outdoor pools (daily rates are $3 for adults…
Summer is here, and for music lovers, that can only mean one thing: It’s festival time! Love them or hate them, festivals are the quintessential summer music experience. Sure, it can be exhausting to spend an entire day (or two, or three…) at a concert, but there’s nothing quite like…
