O, the disappointment I felt when on the radio today I heard announced the Northampton Jazz Festival being presented this Saturday -- the same day as the North Quabbin Garlic & Arts Festival. Words cannot describe the excitement of hearing about the jazz festival and then the sudden and heartfelt regret at its timing. I love jazz. I love live music. I love food. But the annual tradition at our house for the first Saturday of October is to make our way north and east for a little bit of music, a little bit of craft, a little bit of autumn, a little bit of food, and a whole lot of garlic. It hasn't failed us yet. And this year, if I'm brave, I'll even try the garlic ice cream....
Which will you choose -- jazz or garlic (or something else)?
I guess if I'm really lucky, I might be able to get to the garlic early -- and the jazz late.
9/29: PS -- there's also the Source to Sea Cleanup on Saturday.
