You could do it the old-fashioned way: bake a cake, decorate the house, buy ice cream, make a punch, set a festive table and put up a pinata.

What about a tour of the local candy factory or ice cream parlor? Beginning today -- Sunday, May 27 -- and through 5 p.m. Wednesday, May 30, we'll be asking for your recommendations for places to have a child's birthday party. Give us your recommendation in the …

Be it a rock 'n' roll band, solo violinist or jazz trio, live music energizes your outing.
There is no music like live music ... a live performance can be the background to a pleasant dinner or the focal point of an evening out.
