A quick recap of the week
Here are a few highlights from the past week on AOA:
+ Many photos from this year's Santa Speedo Sprint, which was a fun time, as usual.
+ Laura asked about a good place for taking indoor family photos. (There are already a few good suggestions, but a few more might help.)
+ Daniel says the flatbread pizza at Tara Kitchen is a "one-two punch of big, bold flavors."
+ It looks like flu season is cranking up.
+ Casey tried the tableside make-your-own s'mores at Madison Station.
+ What was up in the Neighborhood this week: Victoria's Secret, catabetes, a player, hours, donations, Five Ribers, running, the Kayaderosseras Creek, Festival of Trees, the South Troy Burger, Henry Street Taproom, smores, Godzilla, ale, dessert, Chucksmas, and meatloafistry.
+ We pulled together a big list of places to ice skate in the Capital Region.
+ Following up on a question from Laura, we looked into the Albany County work program for jail inmates.
+ A few of the items found on Craigslist this week: the romantic Home Depot department, chin bone of the gods, an old railroad map, a flammable liquids cabinet.
+ Lucas asked about places to keep his golf game in shape during the winter.
+ We stopped in at Marisa's Place to award them their Tournament of Pizza trophy, and hear about their philosophy of pizza.
And local holiday wish lists!

Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.
