Western Daughters Butcher Shoppe will start a takeover of the meat/butcher counter at The Source on June 1. The artisan food market opened last September with Meat Head as its butcher; the shop recently closed when owner Kevin Klinger decided to move to sunnier lands, the island of St. Thomas.

Western Daughters, a whole animal butchery operation run by Kate Kavanaugh and her fiance, Josh Curtiss, got its start late last year with a location in LoHi. The duo, inspired by a love for the craft of butchery and armed with a one-year apprenticeship at Fleisher’s in upstate New York, opened a 750-square-foot store focused on High Plains cuts of pork, beef, lamb and other seasonal meats. Meats are antibiotic- and hormone-free, sourced from less than 250 miles from Denver, pasture-raised and can be custom cut to order.

At the Source, Western Daughters will bring its whole animal butchery philosophy and more. Kate and Josh will move the animal break down operations into the showcase cooler. Butchery demonstrations and lessons will be part of the schedule. A sizable selection of raw meats will be available six days a week, alongside sandwiches made with house-cured products. House made sausages, stocks and more will also be offered.

“Kate and Josh share the philosophy of the food artisans that are part of the Source,” said Kyle Zeppelin, developer of the food market. “They are committed to their craft and they make the experience fun. It is the formula that works throughout The Source- providing a great underlying product surrounded with an inviting culture. We look forward to having the butcher glass case function to its full potential – allowing transparency of the butchery process and sharing that with customers.

“We can’t wait to bring you a window into where your food comes from; from the butchery aspect to the lives of the animals and ranchers we work so closely with,” Kavanaugh said.” We feel this is the perfect venue to introduce people to a nose-to-tail philosophy and for customers to get a chance to truly meet their meat.”

Until June 1, the shop will conduct occasional weekend and weekday pop-ups. After that, the store will be open six days a week, closing for Meatless Mondays. The takeover is slated through the end of August.

Denver Botanic Gardens will present the Rocky Mountain region’s first outdoor exhibition of artwork by celebrated American glass artist Dale Chihuly. His dramatic sculptures will be on view June 14 through Nov. 30.

The art – ranging in size and style from small water floats to large vertical installations – adds bold colors and dramatic beauty to the Gardens’ 24-acre site. Highlights of the exhibition will include special programming and after-dark viewing hours.

Chihuly’s work is included in more than 200 museum collections worldwide including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Smithsonian American Art Museum and the Corning Museum of Glass.

Exclusive downtown Denver hotel packages are now available, featuring VIP, skip-the-line tickets and other special offerings through the run of the exhibition. For more information, go to http://chihuly.denver.org/hotel-packages/.

The Dumb Friends League’s 21st annual Furry Scurry dog and owner stroll saunters into Washington Park on May 3.

Wash Park again will be going to the dogs for the return of this much-loved Denver tradition that brings together thousands of pets and people all for one common goa l— to raise money for homeless animals in our community.

The Furry Scurry has grown into the single largest dog walk not only in Colorado, but in the entire country. More than 12,000 people and 5,000 four-legged friends are expected to attend.

“The Furry Scurry wouldn’t be what it is today without such compassionate local support,” said Bob Rohde, president and CEO of the Dumb Friends League. “To see so many people come together in celebration of the human-animal bond, and in support of homeless pets, is overwhelming and inspiring.”

In addition to completing the two-mile walk around Washington Park, Furry Scurry participants and their darling doggies can meet adoptable pets and enjoy refreshments, contests, demonstrations and shopping for pet-friendly goods and services from more than 150 vendors and sponsors.

The Dumb Friends League takes in an average of 55 homeless pets every day — more than 20,000 a year. Proceeds from Furry Scurry registration fees and donations help the League provide shelter, medical care, behavior training, foster care, love and compassion to thousands of homeless animals each year, as well as fund programs that serve both pets and people in our community.

Registration for the event is $50 per person and $25 for children 12 and younger, and includes a limited-edition Furry Scurry T-shirt. Individuals can register online in advance or on event day beginning at 7 a.m. Participants are encouraged to collect pledges from friends, family and co-workers to earn prizes.

Christie, a “50-ish” real estate appraiser and Colorado native, says her idea of a perfect date is dinner with conversation, and a glass of wine followed by a walk in the park.

In her spare time, Christie (below) loves to hike with her dog, casual bike rides on the Cherry Creek trail, cook, play board games and spend time with friends and family.

Our newest male mingler is Richard, a 46-year-old who was born in Mississippi and raised in Louisiana.

This Southern gentlemen’s ideal first date includes a very dirty Grey Goose Martini, Fanny Bay oysters on the half-shell, followed by an amazing dinner whereby he will spend hours getting to know the very confident, mildly independent, easy to converse with, clearly attractive, fashion conscious (but not addicted to it), intelligent (but not brazen about it), versatile, potential queen of his heart.

In his spare time, Richard (below) enjoys scuba diving, riding dirt bikes, skiing, fly fishing and just about any outdoor activity. “And sometimes just doing nothing,” he said.

Richard is the principal owner of a company that services restaurant equipment, heating and air conditioning as well as refrigeration equipment.

Eavesdropping on a woman with a 6-year-old who wanted to try Motto Sparkling Matcha Tea at Whole Foods in Colorado Springs. Not knowing if the “Tea for Life” was kid friendly, the woman asked a store employee if it was something kids would like.

Her response was, “Well, King Soopers kids don’t like it, but Whole Foods kids do.”
