Neil Simon’s 1991 Tony Award- and Pulitzer Prize-winning<br />
play that tells the story of a young father of two whose wife<br />
recently died. When given an opportunity to work as a traveling<br />
salesman to provide for the family, he asks for his mother,<br />
a stern German woman who suffered terribly as a child in<br />
Europe before immigrating to America, to watch the boys for<br />
the summer. So begins an experience the two boys will remember<br />
for the rest of their lives, living over a candy store<br />
with a woman who makes the witch in “Hansel and Gretel”<br />
look like The Good Fairy. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll be<br />
uber happy that you took advantage of it being “about time”<br />
to enjoy a night out. The Delray Beach Playhouse is located<br />
at 950 N.W. Ninth St. and tickets are $35 each. Visit www.delraybeachplayhouse.com<br />
or call (561) 272-1281 to purchase<br />
tickets and learn the detailed play schedule.<br />
I’m a firm believer that you can drink alcohol at any time<br />
of the day as long as there’s fruit in it. Mimosas have it<br />
easy, and Bloody Marys are a daytime favorite, but let’s<br />
not forget about sangria. December 20 is National Sangria<br />
Day and if you don’t have a tried-and-true recipe for this delicious<br />
libation, don’t sweat because there’s a sangria master in<br />
your backyard. The Papa’s Tapas family has passed their sangria<br />
recipe down from generation to generation, all for your<br />
drinking pleasure. No muss, no fuss, just all the sweet, sweet<br />
reward. You can dine in and enjoy their sangria with any number<br />
of their hot or cold tapas and entrees, or you can take<br />
advantage of their take-out menu and get yourself a pitcher<br />
of sangria for $24 and have a couch party. This downright<br />
delightful sangria is a refreshing mix of fruit, wine, bubbles<br />
and probably a secret ingredient or two, and will make you<br />
want to make Sangria Saturday a permanent weekend happening.<br />
The best part is that you don’t even have to lift your<br />
mixing finger because all the hard work is done for you, giving<br />
you the opportunity to relax and enjoy the fruits of the Papa’s<br />
Tapas labor. Papa’s Tapas is located at 259 N.E. Second Ave.<br />

It’s been a tough year; you deserve to treat yourself. Since<br />
traveling is basically shunned upon, live events have gone<br />
digital, and working from home has lost a bit of its appeal,<br />
your option is to love your local space while living like a visitor.<br />
You know, take advantage of those activities you might<br />
only partake in when you have guests visiting because, news<br />
flash, we all deserve to have fun. December is Universal Human<br />
Rights Month and heading out for a cruise with Delray<br />
Yacht Cruises will put all the right in your right-now happiness.<br />
There’s almost nothing better than enjoying a cool cocktail<br />
and a cool breeze on an outside terrace, while someone<br />
else drives a boat that you don’t have to clean or park. Your<br />
trip along the Intracoastal Waterway will provide you with<br />
complete relaxation, front-row views to some of the biggest<br />
houses in the area, and the opportunity to pretend you’re<br />
out of town for a couple of hours. The cruises are held select<br />
days at 1:30 p.m., as well as Friday and Saturday evenings,<br />
for $28 per person, but it’s best to call for the schedule and<br />
pricing. Delray Yacht Cruises is located at 801 E. Atlantic Ave.<br />
Visit www.delraybeachcruises.com or call (561) 243-0686 for<br />
more information and to purchase tickets.<br />
