Join us for what is going to be the social event of the summer. Right after the annual "running out" reenactment at the Colonial Theatre, join us for a celebration to kick off BlobFest 2008.

The night will feature contests for the best 50's dress (men and women), the best 50's hair, the best 50's celebrity costume, the best 50's scary monster, and more . . .

This sounds like a neat event, too bad it's being held in the smoke-filled Tyler James Pup. Just walking in the front door you are hit with the stench. I see why smoke-free Molly Maguires is packed full while Tyler James near empty.

Tyler James allows smoking? My husband and I have been planning on trying it, but I guess we won't go afterall. I can never enjoy a meal with smoke in the air. Thanks for the heads-up!

They actually have a sign up in the window saying that the eating area will be smoke free shortly. Not sure about the rest of the bar however.

That would be nice. But they are going to have to air the place out for at least a month.

I appreciate when restaurants have a non-smoking section, but the smoke still gets through to all of the sections. Oh well....I am sure someday everything will be smoke-free (fingers crossed)

The event is going to be upstairs at Tyler James and smoke free- you can come in the entrance from the back parking lot and not have to walk through the smoky bar- that's my plan!

For you folks who have never been in Tyler James (you could go in and try yourself instead of relying on others comments). While they do allow smoking (I hate smoking) the place is big enough during regular hours to eat and drink without smoke being a problem (unless you plop your butt next to a smoker). If you go to the bar after 9pm then you'll encounter lots of smokers but prior to that it's just a smattering of smokers. So my point is: Stop being lemmings and just try it yourself.

Tyler James has been completely smoke free for over a month, as all restaurants statewide will be in September.

Public meeting to discuss future of Melchiorre Park scheduled for Nov. 29th

On Thursday, November 29th, the Borough is holding a 'brainstorming session' in which plans for Melchiorre Park will be discussed with its park planning consultants. The event will be held at the High School and will begin 7pm. For those of you who do not know about Melchiorre Park (of which I am included, even though I apparently live across the street from it), it is a 23 acre park located south of High Street on the land between it and French Creek. It appears, based on the drawing on the Borough home page , to be the land that is next to Westridge Village and across the street from the new Northridge Village community. As part of the meeting, the consultants will 'provide a brief background of the project and present a pre-final master plan for the park'. Source: Phoenixville Borough Website

Local Baker Wins on Netflix Sugar Rush

Peri Anderson, owner of Brooklyn Girl Bakery , was part of a team that won the most recent episode of Sugar Rush on Netflix. I reached out to Peri to learn a little more about her bakery: I started out taking a recreational cake decorating class with my mom when I was still living in NY. I loved it and moved to PA to be with my boyfriend (now husband), where I began interning for a bakery in Chestnut Hill. Over the course of 7 years I worked my way up from intern to pastry chef until I decided to leave in 2012. I do all of my baking in our home kitchen which is licensed and insured by the Dept. of Agriculture. Initially, I wanted to focus on wedding cakes so I immediately started contacting wedding venues in the area to see if they would include me a wedding cake vendor in their packages. I currently work with over 10 venues and several caterers in the area. While wedding cakes are my main focus, I also make cakes and cookie favors for all occasions. While I don’t have a retail loca
