Ruby Bhogal, a finalist from the 2018 season of The Great British Bake Off, is bringing her new cookbook and book tour to Time Out Market Boston on Saturday, July 27. One Bake, Two Ways: Fifty bakes with an all-plant option every time is Bhogal's debut.

Tickets are $45 and also include $10 to spend with the market’s 14 food vendors or bars.
Celebrating Halloween in Boston is a no-brainer. As one of the oldest cities in the country, this town is rife with any kind of spook imaginable—whether it’s one of our creepy old graveyards, a verifiably haunted hotel or sites of bloody massacres that would put your favorite true-crime podcast to shame. And if all that’s not enough, we’re only a quick broom ride from Salem, which boasts a whole other kind of frightening history—and real-life witches everywhere you turn! But Halloween in Boston doesn’t have to be all that spine-tingling. Keep reading for various fun ideas, including Barbie-themed dance parties in former (probably haunted) prisons, floating costume soirees and suggestions on where to get your costumes and pumpkins for the season.
