Nine year old Ralphie Parker wants one thing for Christmas, and one thing only: An Official Red Ryder Range Model Carbine Action BB Gun. There’s only one problem: everyone else is convinced he’ll shoot his eye out! Undeterred, he begins his saga of convincing all the necessary players, from his sweet but protective Mother, to his straightlaced teacher, Miss Shields, all the way to Santa Claus himself, that he needs that gun for the protection of his loved ones, and maybe even a little cowboy glory to call his own. Ralphie’s vivid imagination conjures up several showstopping numbers, from “Ralphie to The Rescue” in which he defeats every foe a young boy can think of (robbers, mustache twirling villains, and of course, the school bully), to the thrilling tap routine performed by a gun moll-esque Miss Shields, who sheds her sweater set and romance novel for a glittery red gown and a whole lot of moxie. And Ralphie’s not the only one with dreams of grandeur. His old man is just as set on a goal of his own, namely, winning a prize in the $50,000 Great Figures of World Literature Contest. His dreams come true when he wins a major award from the competition in the form of a garish, fishnet stocking clad leg lamp, which horrifies his wife but brings him unadulterated joy. In the biggest number of the show, the Old Man dreams up a fantastic dance sequence, developing from a euphoric ballet, to a sultry tango with his wife dressed a la lamp, and finally to a show stopping leg lamp can-can bringing the number to a triumphant close. Filled with quirky and lovable characters, this zany, heartfelt, and nostalgic musical is as delightful as the biggest, shiniest present under the tree on Christmas morning.

“Sweet Treats from Around the World” is the theme of the December 14 episode of “Chesapeake Farm and Bay to Table.” This popular virtual cooking series is produced by Harford County Public Library and Chef John Shields’ nonprofit Our Common Table and highlights Maryland farms, fisheries and local businesses. The program will be presented via Zoom.

The program begins as Chef John and Library CEO Mary Hastler visit the Belvedere Square Market in North Baltimore to learn more about sweet treats available in the area this holiday season. Along for the fun are guest hosts Jinji Fraser of Pure Chocolate by Jinji and Luke Ilardo and Megan Cowman of Doppio Pasticceria.

After the visit to the Belvedere Square Market, it’s back to the kitchen to cook up a storm.

Jinji Fraser began her chocolate journey assisting people with their health pursuits establishing Pure Chocolate by Jinji as a dairy and gluten-free business. Through extensive travels and research, Fraser has dedicated herself to aligning with direct trade and minority community funding objectives within the chocolate industry. Pure Chocolate by Jinji is located in Belvedere Square Market.

Opened in spring 2022, Doppio Pasticceria, owned by partners Luke Ilardo and Megan Cowman, is a Sicilian bakery in Baltimore. Ilardo, whose father immigrated to the United States from Lascari, a small town outside of Sicily’s capital of Palermo, grew up in Baltimore working in his family’s pizzeria and other kitchens before switching to agricultural work. Cowman grew up surrounded by agriculture in Carroll County and began working in kitchens at the age of 14. Her great-grandparents hail from Santo Stefano, less than 70 miles from Lascari.

Doppio means “double” in Italian and represents the duality of Sicilian cuisine, influenced by countless empires of old, yet singular and definitively belonging to the small Mediterranean island. They prioritize products cultivated in the Chesapeake region, from the grains they mill, to the produce they feature and the dairy they use in cheesemaking.

A specially curated book list has been created for this episode. To access it, visit https://hcplonline.org/farmbaytotableregister.php.

To sign up to view “Sweet Treats from Around the World,” visit website. Advanced registration, including a valid email address, is requested. Once registered, participants will receive a confirmation email from Zoom with a link to the program and a unique password to access the event. Viewers will also receive copies of the recipes (usually provided the night of the event).

This episode of “Chesapeake Farm and Bay to Table” is presented in partnership with Harford County Public Library, Our Common Table, 32nd Street Farmers Market, Doppio Pasticceria, Chef John Shields’ restaurant Gertrude’s Chesapeake Kitchen and Pure Chocolate by Jinji.

Nine year old Ralphie Parker wants one thing for Christmas, and one thing only: An Official Red Ryder Range Model Carbine Action BB Gun. There’s only one problem: everyone else is convinced he’ll shoot his eye out! Undeterred, he begins his saga of convincing all the necessary players, from his sweet but protective Mother, to his straightlaced teacher, Miss Shields, all the way to Santa Claus himself, that he needs that gun for the protection of his loved ones, and maybe even a little cowboy glory to call his own. Ralphie’s vivid imagination conjures up several showstopping numbers, from “Ralphie to The Rescue” in which he defeats every foe a young boy can think of (robbers, mustache twirling villains, and of course, the school bully), to the thrilling tap routine performed by a gun moll-esque Miss Shields, who sheds her sweater set and romance novel for a glittery red gown and a whole lot of moxie. And Ralphie’s not the only one with dreams of grandeur. His old man is just as set on a goal of his own, namely, winning a prize in the $50,000 Great Figures of World Literature Contest. His dreams come true when he wins a major award from the competition in the form of a garish, fishnet stocking clad leg lamp, which horrifies his wife but brings him unadulterated joy. In the biggest number of the show, the Old Man dreams up a fantastic dance sequence, developing from a euphoric ballet, to a sultry tango with his wife dressed a la lamp, and finally to a show stopping leg lamp can-can bringing the number to a triumphant close. Filled with quirky and lovable characters, this zany, heartfelt, and nostalgic musical is as delightful as the biggest, shiniest present under the tree on Christmas morning.

The legendary John Denver evokes memories of an era in music that was both inspiring and influential. He recorded nearly 300 songs, 200 of which he composed, which led to 12 gold and four platinum albums; he was also awarded an Emmy and two Grammys. He was a brilliant songwriter and a truly gifted performer. Ted Vigil, a man who, according to the late Steve Weisberg (long-time Denver guitar accompanist) closely resembles John both physically and musically, is carrying on the tradition honoring this colossal music icon. Ted is honored to once again bring the great compositions and hits of John Denver to audiences across America. Reserved seating starting at $20.

Tweetering, pandashrews, and undying giddiness for James Madison — what else could you expect to find at a Miss America pageant? In this hilarious, raucous, all-female “power-play” inspired by Shakespeare’s Shrew, contestant Katherine has political aspirations to match her beauty pageant ambitions. All she needs to revolutionize the American government is the help of one ultra-conservative senator’s aide on the cusp of a career breakthrough, and one bleeding-heart liberal blogger who will do anything for her cause. Well, that and a semi-historically-accurate ether trip. Here’s lookin’ at you, America.

The Hiplet Ballerinas are a performance group based out of the Chicago Multi-Cultural Dance Center in the USA.

Hiplet™ fuses classical pointe technique with African, Latin, Hip-Hop and urban dance styles that are rooted in communities of color. It was specifically designed to make ballet accessible to all, by mixing it with current popular songs that will be familiar to audiences who don’t normally attend ballet performances.

Performances may incorporate the rhythms of African drums with Tchaikovsky, arabesques and beat-boxing or even Tango en pointe – all while showcasing Hiplet’s trademark sass, hip movements, and struts against popular music that audiences will recognize from Black Violin to Beyonce and Prince.

Partnerships with Mercedes Benz, New York and Paris Fashion Week, Versace, and Old Navy have culminated in an incredible worldwide demand for Hiplet’s live shows.

Singer-songwriter Rj Cowdery is motivated by making people think, laugh, cry and feel. Fans tell her it’s uncanny the way her songs seem to take a peek directly into their lives. Much like the Midwestern Ohio landscape she calls home, her songs are stories of middle ground, and her tales are expressions of being in the midst of life. Hers are songs of acceptance. Her music is melodic and lyric rich; this has been validated by her winning the Kerrville New Folk contest in 2008 and the Mountain Stage New Song Contest in 2007, and winning at Falcon Ridge Emerging Artist and Sisters Folk Festival too. Rj has appeared on NPR’s Mountain Stage, and has played venues The Ark and The Bluebird Cafe, and festivals to include the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival and Rocky Mountain Folk Festival.
