Book your reservations, buy your gifts, snag a bouquet - or, if you're single, treat yourself!\n\n🧀I personally am overjoyed to snag a ticket for the Mac & Cheese fest after it eluded me year after year. Plus, Know's new show opens alongside plenty of other performances throughout the week.\n\n❤️ Love you Binghamton - Enjoy!\n\n> _Weekly events newsletters are free via email and online, with_ _paid supporters_ _receiving a weekly local news roundup and occasional extras as a bonus for their support!\n>\n>  ❗If you appreciate this publication, please consider subscribing below for $6/mo!****_\n\nSubscribe or Join as a Paid Supporter!\n\nEvents listed are free to this publication's best knowledge unless otherwise marked.\n\nBelow you can see sections for:\n\n  * 🎆Spotlights & Festivals\n  * ❤️Valentine's Events\n  * 🎵Concerts\n  * 🏀Sports\n  * 🏛️Local Government and Services\n  * 🎨Arts\n  * 🎮🎲Games & Hobbies\n  * 🍅⛰️Nature, Hiking, & Gardening\n  * 🛝Kids & Family\n  * 📜Lectures and History\n  * 💵Fundraisers and Nonprofits\n  * 🎥Screenings\n  * ‼️Other Events\n\n\n\n### **✅This week's recommendation:**\n\nThis week has me thinking - what is the best first dinner date in the Binghamton area? Do you go for somewhere that fits in the middle of comfort and upscale, like Tony's or Nick's? Or do you go more casual to get the edge off, like The Kitchen Counter or Crowbar Arcade? Or, if you want to go all out, find a formal dinner somewhere like P.S., Downtown by Jay Pisculli, Moxie, or McCoy's Chophouse?\n\nNot sure! What would you pick?\n\n> _Let me know ways I can improve this newsletter!_\n\n* * *\n\n## Spotlights and Festivals\n\n**🧀🎺Thurs. 2/12****11th Annual Mac & Cheese Fest**\nThe Philharmonic's cheesiest fundraiser!

Miriam Ruth, the Mother Superior, determinedly keeps young Agnes from the doctor, further arousing Livingstone’s suspicions. Who committed the crime and what caused it? Livingstone’s questions force all three women to re-examine the meaning of faith and the power of love, leading to a dramatic, compelling climax. Directed by Judith Feingold. Featuring Heidi Weeks, Qiana Watson and Katelyn Rundell.\n_Know Theatre, 74 Carroll St., Binghamton_\nFri., Sat. 8 pm, Sun. 3 pm\n$28\n\n**🐟Sat. 2/14****Broome County Crappie Derby**\n _Dorchester Park_\n8 am\n\n**💕Sat. 2/14****Riot Act's 4th Annual Valentine's Day Raffle & Romance + Talent Show**\n _The Bundy Museum Annex, 129 Main St., Binghamton_\n7 pm - 11 pm\n$10\n\n**🎭🍪Sat. 2/14****EPAC Cookie Cabaret Fundraiser**\nLive Music and Dancing!
