In our own Northampton, at 7 Strong Ave., there is a little slice of Louisiana called Smokin' Lil's BBQ. A bar and grill that is family friendly, Smokin' Lil's is a casual place with low lighting and red chili lights, red booths and chair coverings, and an indoor cactus window garden.
Sticky Note Explosion

Every year at Smith I dream of a clean room. Before arriving, I devise a system to keep myself organized.
