Finally, if the coming of 60+ degree weather makes you crave ice cream, enter the Wallyhood Fainting Goat Gelato contest!  Here’s all you have to do:  close your eyes, picture the neighborhood of Wallingford as a giant scoop of gelato, reach out and take a bite.  What flavor do you taste?  Post this as a comment and the winner will get 2 free pints of that flavor!  But do it today because the deadline is Monday.

And, as always, see the Wallingford Music and Nightlife Calendar for even more goings on.
