Celebrate World Pasta Day at Portobello’s

Just think! A worldwide day dedicated just to pasta! Yes, this Saturday should be a perfect fall day to shop & dine in the Montrose Shopping Park. Most of our “one-of-a-kind” shops are decorated to get you in the Halloween mood. After a relaxing day of exploring, head over to the outdoor patio of Portobello’s Italian & Mediterranean Cuisine and try one of their delicious pasta dishes. Their lasagna and capellini chicken limone are customer faves. Everyone comes away raving about the complimentary fresh bread with herb-infused olive oil. Only in Montrose!

Create A Halloween Memory at Color Me Mine

Here’s a recipe for a memorable “grown up” Halloween craft night. Get a group of friends together for a Friday night, bring your snacks and a nice bottle of wine, and head over to Color Me Mine to create a Halloween keepsake. Heck, you can even come in your pajamas if you want! Design your own pumpkin pie mixing bowl, jack o lantern serving plate, or signature fall mug. The possibilities are endless! The best part is you’re right in the middle of Friday night action in fall-themed Montrose Shopping Park featuring strolling musicians. Does that sound like fun or what?!

See No Tox Soaps at Montrose Harvest Marketplace

I have shopped the latest wholesale bath and body lines for decades, on both coasts, and I have never … repeat never … seen a pumpkin spice soap the likes of the one sold by No Tox in our Sunday Harvest Marketplace. Callie Ferman, pictured, and her mom Sandee are the inspiration behind this special line of home and body products that are free of toxins. Be sure to check them out this Sunday. There’s no place like the Montrose Shopping Park! www.shopmontrose.com
