Posted by As you may have noticed, we moved this week’s rundown to Saturday morning, which should be it’s permanent slot for the foreseeable future. Just figured we might miss a few good content pieces that get pushed out on Fridays from some of the local news sites, so this way we’d be sure to capture them in this link list.
That said, there’s a lot going on this week/weekend that you might want to check out. Are you hitting up CicLAvia this weekend? Or checking out the pop-up cat cafe? How about the Mac n’ Cheese Invitational?
