Things to do in Baltimore this week 11/19/18

I have to admit, I have no set Baltimore fun plans this week. Thanksgiving kind of snuck up on me. Luckily, I don’t have to cook for a house full of people. I get to make my Bourbon Caramel Apple Pie and go spend the day with my friends. We are starting our tradition back up of going to Manhattan for the weekend after Thanksgiving. We used to go every year before life got too busy. Ready to see the fall colors (hopefully) on the way up, see something on Broadway, and eat some tasty pizza. Don’t worry, I’ll be back to hit the Baltimore scene hard the following week.
