Valentine’s Day is Saturday, which means Oklahoma City is drowning all weekend in a thick gloss of performative love. At least I think it’s gloss. If you have a person to please – or at least placate – and don’t already have a plan, this roundup might save your inattentive ass. Here are a few of the least eye-rolling events going down in OKC.

From vegan chicken sandwiches to a whole rack of ribs, Black-owned food trucks have kept me well-fed over the years. This month, I’m taking a closer look at three of them that, for me, represent the Past, Present, and Future of portable dining in Oklahoma City. These trucks matter not just for what’s on the menu, but for the role they play in the community and shaping how OKC eats.

The slowly growing rift between Kevin Stitt and Donald Trump has suddenly become a giant chasm! In case you have a life and haven't been following that drama, the Governor found himself briefly atop President Trump's shit list following the fiasco that has become the National Governors Association dinner.

After years of rumors, speculation, and misinformation, it looks like Buc-ee's may finally be headed to OKC. "Really, Patrick? Another Buc-ee's-to-Oklahoma rumor?" Yes, I know these rumors have been flying around for years like a fly in a Love's bathroom, but this time, it looks like it might actually happen.

Yesterday afternoon, a House Education Committee passed, by a 6–2 margin, what we’re going to go ahead and call the "Samantha Fulnecky Easy-A Act" – a patriotic piece of legislation that will allow lazy, ill-prepared Oklahoma college students of all creeds, religions, and nationalities the chance to pass off their deeply held opinions and personal beliefs as educated knowledge, critical thinking, and actual understanding – and still walk away with an A.

Who’s ready for another four years of Thunder tweets, celebrity selfies, and dodging accountability on contentious issues while taking all the praise and credit on easy ones! Last night, OCU Law School Dean David Holt – a.k.a. Mayor McSelfie – easily cruised to his third term as mayor of Oklahoma City by defeating some dude that Steve Hunt convinced to run by a whopping 86% - 14% margin.

Out of all the Hallmark holidays designed to drain your checking account, Valentine’s Day is easily the hardest one to shop for. Well, unless you go see our friends at Patricia’s. With multiple locations across the state, Patricia’s has spent decades helping couples, singles, and the romantically confused find gifts that make Valentine’s Day actually fun, a little daring, and most importantly, memorable.

Over the past few years, my wanton palate has been tickled and teased by the sommeil érotique of French cuisine…by way of Oklahoma, of course. Sure, I would like to go to France someday (anybody need a sponsored travelogue, per chance?) but, until that time, I have been remotely spoiled by their luxurious culinary offerings, idly daydreaming of all the pastries, cheeses and fabled horse-meat awaiting me across an ocean.
