By Nick Leonti, SacMidtown.com I might be a real jerk most of the year, but every December I’m full of holiday cheer (and cookies). There are a lot of good things happening in Sacramento for the holidays. Here are a few off the top of my head. The Nutcracker @ The Sacramento Ballet I’ve never [...]
Rob Small, SacMidtown.com Nothing seems to be going right for the Sacramento Kings. In the past 11 games the team has won only one game. This includes losses to the Los Angeles Clippers and Chicago Bulls last week. The problem is that November was the easiest month the Kings had this season. Out of the [...]
By Cory Hunt, SacMidtown.com Sparky, time for a walk! I can see you’ve really got to take a dump, but I want to make sure you don’t crap anywhere near my house, so I’m just going to drag you along while you’re trying to squat. It’s really a win-win, because all this dragging eliminates the [...]
By Frances Macias-Phillips, SacMidtown.com I love the holidays. But as a firm believer in the “No Christmas Before Thanksgiving” rule, I had to take the first opportunity that I had to prepare for Christmas. So this Black Friday, my fiancé and I loaded up on holiday supplies and set out to decorate for our first [...]

Now that Thanksgiving is behind us, many Sacramentans are beginning their holiday shopping (or [...]
By Frances Macias-Phillips, SacMidtown.com The Run to Feed The Hungry combines two of the things that make me feel best: running and giving back. So on Thursday, me and approximately 30,000 of my fellow Sacramentans will be lacing up to participate in the 17th Annual Run to Feed The Hungry, benefiting the Sacramento Food Bank. [...]
By Kristin Walton, SacMidtown.com Freddy Krougar, Michael, or that crazy Saw movie guy have nothing when it comes to scaring me as when I read this: a typical Thanksgiving dinner is about 4,000 calories. To burn this off, you would have to run for 7 hours, do 20 hours of yoga, or lift weights for [...]
By Bethany Hill, SacMidtown.com In my family, Thanksgiving dinner isn’t necessarily all about the turkey. I mean sure, I like turkey – but I certainly wouldn’t glamorize it to be the ultimate highlight of my dinner. When I think about Thanksgiving’s menu, the first item that comes to mind is the most delectable casserole dish [...]
By Rob Small, SacMidtown.com With three games left at home the Sacramento Kings were looking to end what would be a six-game losing streak.
