An AOA staffer eats their last cookie of the holiday season.

This week AOA is brought to you by soup, long underwear, a Corning's worth of leftover Christmas cookies, one languishing treadmill and several broken (ok... maybe just bent) resolutions.

It's also brought to you by some pretty fabulous advertisers. We can't thank them enough for their support, and we hope you'll thank them by stopping by to check them out. Be sure and tell them AOA sent you.

If you've got something to advertise on AOA, here's how to do it.

This week your AOA fix was made possible by:

+The Wine Bar and Bistro on Lark. The fireplaces are roaring, the soup is hot and the wine list has something to suit everyone. Drop by this Tuesday (1/12) for "Positively Pinot" night and save 25% on any bottle of pinot noir.

+ There's still time to keep that workout resolution. The Albany JCC has a really nice newly renovated gym and they're happy to give you a tour.

+ Capital Wine at the corner of State and Lark has wine tastings every Friday.

+You can save 10% on any one item at Elissa Halloran Designs on Lark Street through January 15th when you mention her AOA ad.(sale items excluded).

+The Albany All Stars open their new season on Saturday night at The Washington Avenue Armory.

+Bilinski's chicken sausages are a healthy and delicious way to start the new year.

+Shop healthy and local at Honest Weight Food Co-op.

+The Midtown Tap and Tea Room on New Scotland Ave in Albany. One word -- pierogi. OK, another word. Yum.
