Over the last couple of years, I've visited The Flea off Market several times and it doesn't hold…read morethe same excitement for me as it once did. The vendors that come are diverse and great to shop, although I can't remember the last time I made a purchase. Due to a smaller number of vendors, today's excursion was short - maybe 30 minutes. Thankfully it was set up in the lot of a local brewery so we grabbed a beer and lingered there. If you're pointed in the direction of The Flea, definitely pull over and browse; however, I can't recommend it as the destination or reason for your outing.

The Flea Off Market continues to bring an eclectic array of artisans and sellers together, making…read morefor a purely Louisville shopping experience. I partook of the Flea Off Market most recently at its annual indoor holiday bazaar, this year held at Mellwood Art Center. This included a couple of food trucks plus vendors set up throughout the two outside buildings at the art center. I also appreciate how well the Flea sets the mood for their markets, with DJs in each building and a bar where you can buy drinks. The Flea has always been more of an experience, where it's fun to shop and also to hang out. During this most recent market, I found several creative vendors that I wished I could buy from. I said to my friend who accompanied me, "I wish I had people cool enough on my Christmas list to buy some of these things for." Alas, I just had family on my list. ;-P Some of my favorite finds, though, included Georgia's Sweet Potato Pie Co. (also has a spot in the Highlands that's worth a visit!), SnoWhat, Eichen Design, FLY Girl Candles and Eden & Kissi (also has a physical location that you should go to in Buechel). I was also struck by the idea that I really need to make it a point to go to more of the Flea's outdoor markets next year so I can shop these great vendors not just at the holidays. Thanks for continuing to bring some wonderful weirdness to Louisville, Flea Off Market!

I haven't been here in years! Met up with some girlfriends for brunch and here are my #WorthyNotes:…read more We went around 11am and there wasn't much traffic. I highly recommend walking around to see your options because there's so much to choose from! I ended up going with an Avo Lox breakfast bagel and a matcha flight! Both were so delicious and made fresh. The food came out quick and the associates were very friendly. All for a good price! What I appreciate about Logan Street Market is the variety of food options and the opportunity to support local. I plan to be back sooner rather than later and bring the kiddos with me!

Who among us can resist a food hall? Not me. (Not I?) Especially one like Logan Street Market. But…read morefirst, something non-food related: This place has a huge arcade in it! That's the first thing that my children noticed when we walked into the market. The arcade is set up off to the side, through a door, on the first floor. There are a couple dozen pinball machines and old-school video games that you can play for quarters. When we visited, there was no one in the arcade, so we had the whole thing to ourselves. The arcade was an unexpected bonus, but we visited for the food. I love food halls and markets like this because everyone can find something they like. When we visited, one of us got a loaded baked potato from Spudzy Potato Bar, one of us got the falafel and hummus plate from Jerusalem Kitchen, and one of us got a cheeseburger from Ziba's Bistro. But we could have also chosen arepas, Korean street food or crepes, or things like boba and coffee and vegan baked goods. There are a lot of different options here. Upstairs, there are a lot of little booths with crafts and handmade goods and things. When we visited, none of that was open, but we were able to go up there and look around. There's also a small area for young kids to play, and a couple of video games. The second floor is also a nice place to peer down and look at the market from high up above. Parking is wherever you can find it. There's a gravel parking lot a block away, and there's also street parking, if you're lucky to get a spot.

I heard this place had the best cheesecake and knew I had to try it! There was a line out the door…read morewhen it opened and they were already sold out of several flavors by the time I made it inside. I was able to grab a cheesecake stuffed cookie and a slice of cookie butter cheesecake. The cookie was AWESOME! I ate it on my drive home. The cookie butter cheesecake but the flavor wasn't as strong as I had hoped. I would definitely go back to try their cheesecake brownie!

I'd been hearing about these cheesecakes from word of mouth but they're apparently very popular, so…read moreI was told to only try and get some if I could be there early and wait in a line. One day when I had the time to, that's exactly what I did, and it was worth it! These cheesecakes are delicious! My only complaint is that since people love these cheesecakes so much, some will go and buy like 50 at a time. I wish I was kidding. This can make it scary to know if you'll still manage to get one after waiting, which I've heard horror stories about from some people, but luckily I didn't have that problem.

Quick update to highlight a great new service I've discovered about Walgreens…read more DYK: You can schedule a flu shot (along with other immunizations) via Walgreens website? Getting a flu shot had been on my to-do list for the past month. I am the last in my house to get one, even including my pup. (Yep, in case you don't know, dogs need flu shots too.) So I went on Walgreens' site, chose my desired Walgreens location and chose my desired time. There were lots of openings. At my time, I went to the pharmacy, and the pharmacist had me sit at a chair by the pharmacy and gave me my shot -- red Walgreens Band-aid and all. I was done within about five minutes of walking in. And even better yet, my insurance covered 100 percent of the cost. When another immunization comes along -- fingers crossed, COVID-19 -- Walgreens might be a good option.
