It Must Be My Weekend Immune System

By Leave a Comment

I love a good punny joke, so let’s start this week’s edition out with a 🤣 for you…

My boss said, “I find it highly suspicious that you are only sick on weekdays.”

I said, “It must be my weekend immune system.”

Now that I’ve made you chuckle, make sure you’ve entered this month’s contest… we’ve teamed up with our BFFs at 10th & Terrace to give you the opportunity to take date night to the next level (literally) by entering to win a $50 gift card to enjoy on their rooftop terrace. Cheers to a well-deserved night out, register here for your chance to win!

Will Sweat for Biscuits (and APATT)

I’m not a rise-and-shine for a workout kind of girl but I am absolutely a rise-and-shine kind of girl for biscuits and A Place at the Table! Matt Smith hosts a “bootcamp” style workout to benefit A Place at the Table, led by trainer Melissa Sziksai, on Saturday, May 20, at 8:30 a.m. at Alexander Family YMCA. A $20 donation to Downtown Raleigh’s pay-what-you-can-cafe gets ya in for the workout and fresh biscuits to follow. Sold!

Looking Ahead to Wine…

The weekend basically starts on Thursday evening so get a jump on it with us at next week’s wine tasting at Killjoy! Our gal pal Kelly from Sour Grapes will be walking guests through four selections (two bubbles and two rosés) beginning at 6 p.m. on Thursday, May 25. Pinkies up! 🥂

So Many *Good* Choices, So Little Time…

Y’all… if you hear anyone say, “there’s just nothing to do in Raleigh”, please forward them our info here at Raleigh Weekend! Seriously, this weekend is overflowing with so many good options to choose from, I honestly don’t know how y’all will pick. Or don’t pick, do it all!

Enjoy Live Jazz and Smooth Cocktails All Weekend Long

Lucky us, there are two chances to enjoy live jazz music alongside cocktails this weekend in the capital city! On Friday, March 24, check out “Gin & Jazz”, hosted by Rabbit Hole Social Club, at Raleigh Social House. Tickets are just $15 and a full bar is available. On Sunday, March 26, if you prefer your jazz with a side of brunch, head over to Transfer Co. Ballroom and Transfer Co. Food Hall for a live performance by Aaron “The Real” McCoy Jr. (pictured above), an esteemed saxophonist who’s performed with acts like Mary J. Blige, The O’Jays, Foreign Exchange and more.
