Here we are, Weston, on the cusp of St. Valentine’s Day, and though the Owl would much like to make light of saints and their marginal role in a “holiday” of love (please please let me not get struck by lightning, especially as another Catholic mass center opens in town), it turns out I already did that last year when
Read moreRight after you pick up your lox and bagel from the Mamaleh’s van, head over to Weston Provisions for their first-ever Burger Night! I totally dig their 80s rock band graphic design and I might also dig some of those truffled fries after I get out of Field School. As you undoubtedly know, Weston Provisions usually closes at 5 pm
Read moreAs most people know, Weston is home base to the beautiful and unique Weston Table retail store. If you have not been in the shop at 466 Boston Post Road, you are missing out on one of the best multi-sensory experiences in metrowest–beauty and deliciousness surround you and there are always new items to ooh and aah over.

Read moreTomorrow, Friday, December 9, is the grand opening day for Weston JewelArt, a new Weston-resident-owned jewelry store located at 483 Boston Post Road (the old Weston Travel location). This puts jewelry as the third angle of the triangle of joy between Weston Table, Weston Provisions, and Weston JewelArt. In terms of Owl-level geometry class, Weston has now added a new
Read moreSo, Weston, are you ready for the weekend? Well, get your time turners ready because I do not believe it is possible to attend every single event, but with the right strategy, you may get to most of them. One little wrinkle in the possibility of the total weekend win is the USA vs Netherlands World Cup (that’s soccer) game
Read moreWeston, we have arrived at the time of year when net intake does not equal net outtake, where intake is food and outtake is s…umm, calorie burn. So what are you going to do besides run laps around the neighborhood with your run club? Pretend to plank while watching World Cup games? Yoga online? Here’s another suggestion: call up (or
Read moreFor the second year, the Women’s Community League of Weston is running a Gingerbread Treasure Hunt around the thriving downtown metropolis we call home. From Saturday, November 19 – Friday, December 2, kids will hit the sidewalks (utility-pole-free!) to suss out the locations of these cute stuffed Gingerbread kids. While you’re out there, it would be great if you would
