Eiderdown - the perfect spot for (almost) any craving [Food and dining]
This article could really be titled “Favorite place to catch up on all the craziness that has been going on in our lives over the last two weeks.” Occasionally it seems my lovely friend Rebecca and I go a little too long without talking and
need a proper dinner (with drinks, of course) to officially get caught up. When this happens, we most often head to Eiderdown (983 Goss Avenue) for the occasion.
Hiking, Biking and other fall events for a healthy city commences Saturday [Sports]
Three notable “healthy Louisville” events will be occurring Saturday morning. One for a good cause, one for the city as a whole, and one just for fun these three civic minded events provide ways for families to get out and do something good for themselves and the city as a whole this weekend.

In the city’s continued efforts to provide healthy and family-friendly activities for residents, this Saturday mayor Greg Fischer will host Louisville’s seventh annual fall hike.

Wax Fang kicks off the Derby live-music season with a performance at Zanzabar on Thunder-eve [Music]
If you’ve lived here in our beloved Derby-city for a long time, then there is a good chance that you’re probably already over Thunder Over Louisville. It’s just a bunch of fireworks, right? Or maybe because it essentially generates Louisville’s biggest annual city-wide traffic jam, and packs the Jefferson County Detention Center to near capacity. Something of the sort.
An ode and an adieu to Germantown-Schnitzelburg [Germantown-Schnitzelburg]
The time has come to bid adieu to Germantown as a writer as I am now a downtown writer for Louisville.com, leaving my original post as a Germantown reporter. When I first started covering Germantown-Schnitzelburg I didn’t know what to expect because I was new to Louisville and, apparently, there are mixed opinions of the area around the city.

The bees are out... and they've got dictionaries [Germantown/Schnitzelburg]
There has been an ever-growing buzz about a new bar game that actually stimulates intellectual activity. The Spelling Bee, otherwise known as the Spleling Be, invites people come out to Germantown bars once a month to have a beer and compete in a spelling bee that is actually quite rigorous (the MC uses a GRE vocabulary flashcard deck). I only made it to the second round.
Louisville neighborhood makes their home the troops' homes for the holiday [Germantown/Schnitzelburg]
The Germantown-Schnitzelburg neighborhoods have been hailed as neighborly places, at least by me, and the community is taking the opportunity to broaden their boundaries to include military personal stuck in Louisville for Christmas. The neighborhood will provide army trainees unable to go home to their families with food, games, gifts, and company, and they’re calling on everyone for support.
Benefit concert to be held for the Andrew Compton Memorial Fund [Germantown-Schnitzelburg]
Most Louisvillians have heard of the murder of 18-year-old Sullivan student Andrew Compton who was allegedly killed in the Highlands by a man he met online. The alleged culprit has confessed, facts have been revealed, but at the end of the day the Compton family still hasn’t found their son’s body as LMPD ended their search for Andrew’s body at a Medora, Ind. landfill last week after an exhaustive search (this is where the dumpster that allegedly contained Andrew’s body was taken).
