December in Delaware (Or Close By)

I love the holidays. Everything about them. Yes, they can be stressful. But, there is also a lot of joy, a lot of light, a lot of music, a lot of laughter, and a lot of warmth.

This year, I set myself the goal of going to all of the major Christmas events in Delaware and the ones I loved outside of the state. It turned out to be quite a project. Every email I opened, everyone I talked to, every link I clicked turned me on to another celebration that I felt warranted inclusion.

Restaurant Review: Riverfront Market

Similar to DE.CO in the middle of town, the Riverfront Market is an old building that has been repurposed, just down on the riverfront. It, too, has vendors selling various types of food catering to the office crowd who work in that part of town. A woman I know who works on the riverfront has lunch there every day. When I asked why, she told me that the choices are plentiful, the prices reasonable, and it is convenient. What else could you want from a lunch spot?

The market is unprepossessing when you walk in. The lighting is on the dark side, and the vendors are simply lined along two sides of the building. Yet, the space is filled with tables and chairs in which you can hang out for as long as you like. Additional seating is upstairs, so I have never had to hunt too long for a table.
