Enjoy an evening of American folk music. The roots of American folk music with special guest star & folk legend Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul & Mary! The story of folk music is truly the story of an ever-changing America. Experience the enduring power and popularity of American folk music with Lonesome Traveler, the stirring concert version of the acclaimed Off-Broadway musical that the New York Times called “illuminating… revelatory… achingly beautiful.” The show celebrates the music of great folk artists including Woody Guthrie, Lead Belly, Pete Seeger and the Weavers, Gordon Lightfoot, Peter, Paul and Mary, Bob Dylan, The Byrds, Donovan, Cat Stevens, Don McClean, James Taylor, Van Morrison with a special tribute to Leonard Cohen.

Charismatic young singers and multi-instrumentalists return us to a time when music brought us together – when it changed us. Complete with period costumes, this unforgettable concert event features romantic duets, patriotic songs, church hymns, union anthems and songs of protest, taking us from the 1920s to the 1960s and beyond– from the front porches of Appalachia to the nightclubs of San Francisco and New York – from the festival stages of Newport to the sound stages of Los Angeles. Songs like: “If I Had a Hammer,“ “Puff The Magic Dragon,” “This Land is Your Land,” “This Little Light of Mine,” “Blowin in the Wind”, “Like a Rolling Stones”, “Turn, Turn Turn”, “American Pie”, and “Hallelujah”.

Folk legend Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul & Mary has enthusiastically endorsed the show and will be appearing in this production of the show as a special guest star.

An inspiring evening of great music, Lonesome Traveler: The Concert makes its Central Florida debut, presenting a revealing perspective of the roots forever embedded in our culture and bringing together audiences of all ages.

Presented by Pop, Rock & Doo Wopp / Praia Entertainment Group

***** Trader Joe’s Chocolate Pecan Pie Bar.

Yesterday, while shopping at Trader Joe’s, 855 South Federal Highway, Boca Raton, Florida 33432, (561) 338-5031- Jeff Eats came across and purchased one of the above pictured $6.99-Trader Joe’s Chocolate Pecan Pie Bars and I gotta tell you guys, that it was so delicious that last night- I ate the entire 15.7oz Chocolate Pecan Pie Bar while watching the 1 hour and 58 minute tv pay-per-view showing of the film- Marshall! Am I proud of myself? Yes I am!

Let me close by saying, that unless you are allergic to pecans and/or chocolate- you gotta try Trader Joe’s Chocolate Pecan Pie Bars! By the way, Jeff Eats loved Marshall and I’m getting a bit tired of Trader Joe’s employees always being so happy and polite!

from traderjoes.com

More often than not, pies are round. This pie is not—it’s rectangular, which is why we decided to call it a “bar.” Shape isn’t too important, though, because Trader Joe’s Chocolate Pecan Bar is still pie-like—and a delicious, melt-in-your-mouth pie-but-not-pie treat, at that.

A filling made of brown sugar, semi-sweet chocolate, and butter rests in a flaky pastry crust and is hand-topped with pecan halves. It’s equally suited for a holiday dessert tray or a tasty after-a-giant-turkey-meal treat. The bar shape allows for a variety of serving options: do you prefer squares, or smaller bars? Perhaps even triangles? What we’re saying is you’re not confined to the classic “pie wedge.” And, there are corner pieces (four, to be exact) for all those pie crust lovers.

We’re selling each 15.7-ounce Chocolate Pecan Pie Bar for $6.99, throughout the holiday season.

This contest started on 1/7/18. This contest has a winner.
