Hi, friends! Itās Brenda, back in your inbox for all the Central Florida Happenings.
Remember last week when I told you I was doing something iconic for St. Patrickās Day? āļø
Well, here it is! I happened to be in Chicago this past weekend during one of the cityās most iconic events - the dyeing of the river, something Iāve always wanted to see! Always fun crossing something off the bucket list.
Weāre obviously back here in good olā Central Florida, so letās get into whatās happening here, shall we? ā¤µļø
