Weekender

Ahhh, weekend in the Mile High City. Simply Glorious.
Our evenings find us being homebodies this time around - tonight is movie night (hooray for hunkering down with a big bowl of popcorn, a bottle of wine, AND a puffy doggie on your feet - try THAT at the theater,) and tomorrow night I get to cook dinner for some lovely friends. (I love, love, LOVE being the hostess!)
So since I don't have enough room to invite the rest of you, what else is fun and frugal around town this weekend?

1/29 - It may not be super fun, but it beats getting the flu, so if you haven't gotten an H1N1 vaccination yet, stop by 1515 Wazee from 5:30-7:30PM this evening and get one free, provided by @AfterOursDoc .

1/30 - And in the category of "I had no idea this was happening," I give you the first post about Denver Urban Homesteading's weekly Farmer's Market. It takes place every Saturday year round at DUH's (that is what they call themselves, I didn't do it!) headquarters: 200 Santa Fe Drive Denver, CO 80204. It is open from 9am - 2pm every Saturday, which gives you ample time to stop in. See DUH's website for more info. (BTW, how cool are they? I think I am in love with the whole idea! Hey DUH, I am your new biggest fan, let's be BFF's, text me every two minutes, kay?)

1/30 - OK, got that flu shot down, and now you are wondering how everything else is holding up, health wise? Well, The Center for African American health is hosting a free health fair at the Renaissance Denver Hotel, 3801 Quebec Street. You can get free screenings including -blood pressure, pap smear, glucose & cholesterol, prostate, vision, bone density, clinic breast exam, lung function, and more. Even dental screenings will be offered!! While you are there, you can also check out workshops and cooking demos (and sample the fruits of their labor.) See their website for more details.

1/28-1/31 - It's X-games time up in Aspen this weekend, but if you aren't in the mood (or the money) for a drive up the hill, Downtown is hopping with winter-sport themed activities this weekend! (The Convention Center is hosting THE premier to-the-trade snow sport trade show this weekend, and Downtown retailers are offering all kinds of fun activities great for convention attendees and locals alike!) In Skyline park you can watch the X Games live on a giant open air screen from 5-9pm every evening (Thursday - Sunday) while enjoying a beer garden with $3.00 Budweiser's. Other events are happening all over the city, as Denver hosts the World's Largest Apres Ski Party at venues all over Downtown this weekend. See the full rundown of events here.
