Hot Apple Cider!

What drink is perfect for the cold, Autumn and Winter days....?                              

You guessed right...HOT APPLE CIDER!

I love to sit in a cozy chair, watching a movie, or reading, while drinking a warm cup of hot apple cider during the cold winter months. Here is a list of ways you can get yours, along with a recipe of how to make your own!

Starbuck's

They have a delicious Caramel Apple Spice drink that is perfect for Winter days. There is one located on Delmar Blvd, and Maryland Avenue.

Whole Foods

They have gallon jugs of organic apple cider that you can heat up in your own coffee mug in the comfort of your own home. They are located in Brentwood, so you can just hop on 64 West to get there.

Soulard Coffee Garden

This restaurant has a full menu and a variety of desserts that you can enjoy with your apple cider. It is located in Soulard on Geyer Avenue.

And for a little extra spice for those of the proper age...add a little dark rum.

Also, look for the Loop Holiday Walk, which will be taking place in the Delmar Loop, just minutes from Park Station Apartments, starting in December. There will be lots of hot apple cider there!

Exciting Halloween Events

BOO AT THE ZOO!    Fun for all ages!

• The St. Louis Zoo in Forest Park is once again hosting Boo at the Zoo every night until Thursday, October 30th, starting at 5:30pm until 8:30pm.
• Spooky Saturday-October 25th-from 9am-4pm. St. John's Mercy Children's Hospital will have EXTRA treats, such as a Halloween costume parade, trick or treating, and live music.

Join the festivities with your children, or take a romantic walk with your significant other through the Night Hike, Headless Horseman Graveyard, and Frankie's Maze...just to name a few.

My personal favorite is the "Superstition" simulator coaster adventure with Cleopatra. I went last year and the decorations are AMAZING AND FUN!, and the simulator ride almost made me jump out of my seat. If you want to enjoy a fun, yet inexpensive treat this Halloween, go enjoy the festivities at Forest Park.

This is an especially great deal for Park Station residents, as our location is just minutes from Forest Park!
