Soon, Waco natives won’t be the only ones to mosey down the pothole-infested gravel road to Bonnie’s Greenhouse.

Having trouble feeling the Christmas spirit amidst the stress of finals? Waco Civic Theatre has the perfect remedy with its presentation of “Miracle on 34th Street.”

In this week’s adventure for Cookbook Confessions, I cooked up some “Baby Porcupines”, a recipe which thankfully does not require the actual anatomical parts of a porcupine. That would be sad and, perhaps more importantly, very difficult to acquire.
It’s Christmas time in the city. For students and Wacoans who love Baylor’s Christmas on Fifth Street, the holiday festivities don’t have to stop there. The third annual Waco Wonderland kicks off at 6 p.m. this Saturday in Downtown’s Heritage Square.
Today, I drove down I-35 North, out of the Baylor Bubble, in search of a good burger. I didn’t want just any ol’ burger, though. I wanted a burger that would make my taste buds sing. I ended up at Dave’s Burger Barn, located at 600 N Patricia St.
Retrospectives typically look back on an entire career, gathering together the works that embody and encompass an artist’s career. The exhibit opening this week in the Martin Museum does the opposite, looking forward on three young Baylor artists’ careers.
Well, as soon as I saw “Scottish Pudding” I knew I’d found the perfect recipe to try. With all the rainy, gray days recently, I’ve missed my time studying abroad in St. Andrews, Scotland. A Google search revealed Scottish pudding to be a classic British holiday dessert. Perfection.
Enter a classroom with a Shipley Do-Nut bag in hand and prepare to be flooded with glares. The sugary, airy and warm pastry from the most prevalent bakery in town warrants a jealousy any deprived sugar-tooth can muster.
The stage looks like home. Maybe not a home today, but the home of one’s grandparents, and the home of the American Dream. Mid-century modern furniture is arranged in a family circle, and household keepsakes clutter the shelves. To the right of the stage there is a child’s room, and a doll’s house ready for play.
Canned episodes of “Whose Line is it Anyway” isn’t cutting it for comedy fans in Waco. That’s why the Brazos Theatre Group is hosting an improv comedy night at 9 p.m. Friday.
The balloons are filled and gold flamingos settled for the Buttoned Pop-Up Shop today at LL Sams Historic Lofts.
Every student is a writer. Each term paper, essay and exam contributes to carpal tunnel syndrome and everyday hand cramps. But some students choose to write, not just their research papers and daily assignments, but entire short stories, poems and novels.
When choosing a recipe for Cookbook Confessions, I have two qualifications. One, it must be strange. Certainly I cannot choose a title because it sounds appetizing. Two, it must require some experimenting—whether with substitutions or uncommon cooking techniques.
In front of the Magnolia Market storefront there is a memory. The sign from the Little Shop on Bosque, Chip and Joanna Gaines’ first retail store, is printed on a banner in front of the new location. This weekend, the Little Shop and its iconic Magnolia sign will be wheeled away for the last time at the grand opening of the downtown market at Waco’s iconic silos.

Halloween is a two-edged holiday. Candy, tricks and treats make Halloween a quintessential children’s favorite. But ghouls and vampires, no matter how much kids like them, can sometimes give the day an adult-only R-rating.
Play any song on an organ, and it’ll instantly become spooky. At least, that’s what assistant professor of keyboard studies Isabelle Demers is hoping for the organ department’s 25th annual Halloween Concert.

At most restaurants, diners come with friends and family and sit at a table to themselves. Waco’s Farm to Table Dinners, hosted by Milo Local Provisions and Kindred Event Studios, isn’t like that. At Thursday’s dinner, guests will be arrayed along a communal table meant to bring them together around food and conversation.
Happiness is a diner mug filled with fresh coffee intermittently between sips. It’s an over-hard egg next to buttered toast and three strips of bacon. It’s a conversation with a frequent customer sitting at the bar as you wait for your food to be prepared before your eyes. Happiness is Cupp’s Drive-Inn.
When Bryan senior Landon McGee plays the guitar, he closes his eyes. It’s not because he has the stage fright of a first grader playing a cow in his first school play. He closes his eyes because his music, even when it’s shared with an audience, is his own private world.
Superstar cellist Yo-Yo Ma will be performing with the Waco Symphony Orchestra in Waco Hall on Thursday.
