• Go ahead, be an Italian this weekend!

  They say that on St. Patrick's Day in Kansas City, everyone is Irish for at least a day. The planners of the annual Festa Italiana, the three-day "celebration of Italian tradition and Italian-American culture" would prefer all Kansas Citians be Italian for the whole damn weekend. This festival was held, for many years, at Crown Center, but, several years ago, moved out to the northland to the park-like center of the Zona Rosa Shopping Center. That's where the festivities will take

• Outdoor Markets: Farmer's Market at Zona Rosa

  The weekly Farmers Market in the Zona Rosa Center at I-29 and Barry Road is one of the smallest markets of its kind in town. There were only seven vendors (including John B. Goode, right, from Good Acres in Wathena, Kansas) selling fresh produce and other things last Tuesday; the market is every Tuesday from 4 to 8 p.m. There was a young man selling bags of coffee, a woman selling handmade perfumes, three or four different farmers with fresh tomatoes, peppers, beans and the like -- and Nick

• More help on the way for 18th & Vine?

  A faint but strong heart beats for 18th and Vine. That much was obvious last Tuesday night, when a crowd packed the lobby of the Gem Theater to take part in what might sound like one of the most boring activities of good citizenship: a city planning meeting. At least a hundred people showed up to hear what City Hall had in mind for the district -- and  listening to City Hall talk about 18th and Vine can be emotionally risky. After all, it's been a long time since Emanuel Cleaver's administr

• Going out for turkey day? Plan now!

  Who makes it at home anymore?​Plenty of restaurants will be open on Thanksgiving Day this year. The holiday wasn't always a big business day for the restaurant industry; until the late 1980s, Thanksgiving was considered a holiday when most people preferred eating -- and cooking -- at home. But anyone who has ever hosted a Thanksgiving dinner for the extended family knows it can be an ordeal: roasting that bird for hours, creating all those side dishes, trying to remember which relative
