Country Cooking Chef Vivian Howard is stepping out of the kitchen for a good cause. Howard is selling this catchy t-shirt with proceeds benefiting Jones County, an area heavily affected by Hurricane Florence. Show your deep roots and rock a “Country as Cornbread” tee. www.vivianhoward.com/products/countryas-cornbread
Drink in the fall weather with a toddy that makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside. Dram & Draught’s new fall cocktail menu should do the trick. Try a Brother Walfrid: John Barr Blended Scotch, Eda Rhyne Appalachian Fernet, Madeira, Fee Brothers Black Walnut Bitters, and orange zest. Or, sip a Moss Point: Cathead Pecan Vodka, Amaro Montenegro, vanilla, orange bitters, house-brandied cherry, and orange wedge. 623 Hillsborough St.
GIVE IT A WHIRL
Head to Wilson (or Wiltson, if you are a native) for the NC Whirligig Festival at the Vollis Simpson Whirligig Park November 3-4. Enjoy music, food, arts and crafts vendors, and the Whirligig Warrior American Ninja-style obstacle course. It’s a great way to spin the day. whirligigfestivalnc.org
