Local Business Friday's Film - "No Impact Man"Written by Barbara T. on 04/21/2010
Showing Friday at 7 p.m.
Our Friday Film Series continues on April 23 at 7 p.m. with a One Book, One Community Event - a special screening of the documentary film No Impact Man. PLEASE NOTE THE EARLY SCREENING TIME OF 7 P.M. FOR THIS FILM EVENT NO IMPACT MAN: A DOCUMENTARY (2008) Not rated; 93 minutes Colin Beavan, a New York City writer and self-proclaimed liberal, has big plans for his new book. He decides on a grand experiment: to live one year with as little impact on the environment as possible. The problem is, the project requires his wife Michelle, an espresso-guzzling, Prada-worshipping business writer, and their young daughter to be fully on board. The family embarks on a year of no electricity, television, cars, toilet paper, elevators, or newspapers. "The movie is a hilarious, riveting must-see about a family as it breaks down almost all the way and then reinvents itself." --Salon.com Refreshments will be served. Admission is free.
Growing up...Written by Erica B on 02/29/2008Friday was always pizza night in my household. I remember vividly how my sisters and I used to crowd around the windows on our tip-toes, just waiting for Dad to pull into the driveway with the pizza box on the car seat, and then scream a big "YEAH!" when he walked through the door. It was a big treat that we looked forward all week (especially if we had to suffer through a meatloaf dinner the few nights before). If Friday night is pizza night in your household, maybe you would like to check out the Chowhound reviews that some pizzerias are getting in our area. It looks like Darien's Post Corner Pizza has received some pretty rave reviews! Being fairly new in town, I haven't had a chance to order up a slice, yet. Perhaps tonight I'll give it a go - it is Friday, after all! Sushi, anyone? Or maybe a sandwich?Written by Erica B on 02/13/2008If you like sushi, check out the reviews that people are posting on Chowhound about a couple of our local Darien eateries, Tengda and Matsuri. Seems there is no need to trek all the way into the city for a really great California roll! YUM! If sushi's not your thing, maybe you'll want to consider trying some of the best sandwiches in Fairfield County!
