Elf on the shelf

Does anyone have an Elf on the Shelf that they're not using this year? I think ours was donated on accident and we haven't found one at any stores. I would be willing to purchase it. My 7 year old just got a letter from him saying he got snowed in at the north pole and is crying his eyes out right now. 🥺

Update : took the trip out to Red mill Walmart and they had like 5.

What development would be more in favor?

A 20,000 seat arena or Santa Monica style pier.

Hang out

Is there any spots around town center for a socially awkward 36 year old male to hang out? Or to go drinking and eating peacefully?

Looking to Volunteer during my Winter Break

Hey y’all, I’m a college student home for winter break and looking to kill some time productively instead of sitting around. I would love to hear of some volunteering opportunities y’all know about or are a part of in the city or nearby. I’m on a pre-medicine track so I would love to do something hospital/health oriented, but any form of giving back to my hometown and helping out organizations or workplaces would rock. Thanks!

Brazilian grocery

We’ll be in Virginia Beach next week visiting family and will be bringing our au pair with us. She’s Brazilian and we’d like to find a Brazilian grocer so she can have some things she’s more familiar with for the holiday. We know that the usual Latin/Central American grocery stores one can find rather easily are not the same. So are there any Brazilian specific grocery stores in the Virginia Beach area? Thanks.

Christmas Trees

What happened to the pop up Christmas tree lot usually at Rosemont Road and Salina? This is the first I can recall it not being there! It doesn't feel the same without it?

Pleasure House Point

The same City Council that runs for election based on their flood mitigation efforts is going to decimate trees to make wetland credits so that they can build MORE elsewhere in the city.

I’m just curious, how many of you actually keep up with your pet licenses every year? I renew every year for my dogs.

A big thank you to whoever suggested this gardening kit

Last month I came across a post here about a gardening kit that comes with a bunch of uncommon seeds and a book with recipes for herbal remedies that can be made from the plants. I thought it'd make a cool addition to my garden this year and the fact that it's made by Nicole who was on season 2 and 4 of the show Alone sold me even further because I love that show.

I can't find the original post but I want to thank them for sharing and tell anyone who was on the fence to go for it. I've planted everything so I'll share updates and photos of my garden as it grows in the comments of this post. The book written by Nicole goes over everything you can make with the plants from ointments and teas all the way to essential oils and infusions. These plants are not something you'd find in a normal store so they make for a unique addition to your garden.

I can't wait to try everything once the plants are ready to be harvested! I'll share some photos of the things I make using the guide when I can and let you know if they work. Here's the website since I can't find the original post to link to - https://medicinalkit.com/

Best place for young professionals in VA beach/Norfolk to live

Alright so here’s my situation. I just accepted my first travel contact as a physical therapist in VA beach and will be starting in January and was wondering what the area was like for young professionals. I’m a single guy in my late 20s and am very social and like to have a good time, I play guitar a lot and do some singing and like to run, workout, and be active! Where would be the best place to live for being close to happening areas. I hear the Vibe and Ghent are cool but honestly don’t know much. Appreciate any pointers from locals or any other travel healthcare workers.

This looks like a plane, but it isn't giving off heat and doesn't show up on flight maps. These are drones over the Virginia Beach Metropolitan Area (Newport News). The Ethnic Qarsherskiyan tribe uses stars to navigate and we can't anymore because we see so many. It pisses us off. Darn drones flying
