This weekend is a great time to take a break and discover what the holiday spirit is really all about. If you've had your fill of shopping and spending, why not do something to destress your senses this weekend? Go ahead, enjoy some fresh-baked holiday cookies and then take in a local show. There are many to choose from. - Take the kids out for a night of theater by watching The Christmas Camera at the Art Center Theatre. The play, written by Citrus residents Mac and Sharon Harris, takes a nostalgic look at a couple's Christmas memories as they flip through a photo album.
