Holiday Homecoming downtown, today
New Albany's annual "holiday homecoming" is today from noon to 6 p.m. It's also a Downtown Saturday, which means that downtown shops keep special hours.
Holiday Homecoming attractions include Christmas carols, free chili from local restaurants, cookies donated by Floyd Memorial Hospital and the arrival of Santa Claus at 3 p.m., and all this will be held on Pearl Street between Main and Market streets.
We're heading to Treet's for breakfast. Gotta have that bacon, you know.

Potpourri: Sandkerwa N.A. tonight; Downtown Saturday tomorrow; remembering beer writer Michael Jackson.
New Albany’s second in a monthly series of Downtown Saturdays runs tomorrow from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. More than two dozen merchants in the city’s historic business district will be open, and many are offering special sales and promotions for the occasion.
Among them are three featuring prominently in a Louisville Eccentric Observer “Eat ‘N’ Blog” article this past week: North of the river, things are looking bright.
Now, three more restaurant openings in the city’s historic district — Treet’s Bakery Café, Speakeasy and Connor’s Place — have brought the New Albany dining scene close to critical mass … and there’s more coming.
If you’re downtown tomorrow, be aware that Treet’s will be open for breakfast and the Speakeasy for standard lunch hours, with Connor’s Place unlocking the doors on Saturday circa 2:00 p.m.
For more on the Downtown Saturday concept and the people who are organizing it, consult the latest issue of Develop New Albany’s newsletter, “The Renaissance Chronicle.”

The past week began fractiously. A disinformation campaign by discredited congenital obstructionists aimed at sliming the Carnegie Center was revealed here as bogus, and then, not to be outdone, a perpetually underachieving city council happily commenced suing itself.
A theocratic Indianapolis attorney came to town to stroke the inflamed libidos of trognonymous bloggers, ostensibly (and opportunistically) on the basis of property tax relief, although it bears noting that Eric Miller probably would be sending gays and atheists to Git-Mo if he were dictator.
The week ends with sadness as we note the death at 65 of renowned beer writer and journalist Michael Jackson, the colossus who was the founder of the good beer movement.
My thoughts are at the Potable Curmudgeon blog:
Grieving the Beer Hunter's passing: Michael Jackson, the Red Room and Louisville.

Speaking of beer, NABC's the place to be for the next week or two as we present our first-ever draft appreciation of primarily Northern Bavarian beer styles:
Sandkerwa NA, an homage to Bamberg’s beers, begins Friday, August 31.
Sandkerwa NA approaches on Friday, August 31 (final list and pricing).
